The Savannah morning news., 1903-11-13

Haven tomorrow will probably be the
best game of the year.
Both teams have now finished their
practicing and will rest up until the
game. The Yate team has been coach
ed in all the finer points of the game
by their former stars and the men
are confident of winning. A game like
this one is never decided or won until
the whistle at the end of the second
half has sounded.
The Princeton team is made UP of
some of the best players in the coun-
try. With Burke, Foulke, Kafer, and
Miller behind the line and Dewitt at
guard they have nothing to fear.
Princeton depends largely on the
great kicking leg of Dewitt to win the
game for them.
The officials of the game will be
Umpire-Wrightingt Harvard. Ref
eree-Minds, University of Pennsyl-
Vania, and Snow. Michigan, linesman.
The line UP of the Yale team has
been practically completed. 1t is not
yet known how the back field will
and Metca1f will start the game at half
back, with Farmer at full back. This
combination furnishes Yale with
dashing end runner, punter, and drop
goal kicker in Mitchell. who is the
find" of the year at Yale; a good
runner back of punts and a brilliant
line borer and good all-around half
back in Metca1f, who played last year;
and a splendid defensive player and

Yale will not play both Mitchell and
Bowman at the same time, both be-
ing punters.
The second string of Yale backs,
Bowman, Allen, and Hoyt will be
equally good as the first lot. In Bow
man, last years full back Yale has
an experienced line bucker, who has
reputation as a punter, and who
has proved his ability to make end
runs go hard. In Allen, Yale has
fairly good line hitter who is fearless
and fast, but who is apt to try TO
jump the line, and so lose ground:
Hoyt, the new full back. is big ana
heavy, and hits the line with SMASH
ing force, being fully as good halr
back as Princeton has in Miller. OWs-
ley win probably not play except for
little while. as his knee injury makes
his runnig weak. 1t seems to be Ger.
tdlli IlOW MOTlOI, the GlU BCN'-~
guard who has held Glass's old places
will play only as a substitute CEN
ter. Batche1der will probably play lett
guard, Roraback center and Bloomer
right guard. This makes a center
trio at Yale that will be remarkably
heavy.
Yale men are granting Princeton at
least two goals from the field Satur-
day, providing Dewitt is In his dig
time shape. No one who has watched
both teams in their development ana
later games can fail to expect thae
Princeton will make big distances
through the hitherto impregnable fale
line. But Yale men do not believe
that Princeton can make sufficient als-
lance to score a touchdown by me
rushing. The Yale line averages con
siderable more than Princeton ana 10
more experienced. A usual wager az
Yale is that the Eli team viii maxi
twice the ground in line rushing thde
Princeton will. For this reason faLe
men expect that the Eli eleven Will Ger
tainly be able to score one touch-doWn
on Princeton, and possibly two, given
a possibility also of a goal from tn
field by Mitchell, and the outcome VI
the game would seem, by sucn az
analysis. to depend on DeWitts kicA-
ing goals.
1t has been officially stated that th
Yale management has had the s lall1
reconstructed so that 1t now seats ONsA
$4,000 people.
