Of victory Princeton had a good team,
and every member played TO the limit
Of his ability, but Yale was stronger
in attack and had defence that held
her goal safe. The game was played
in the presence Of some $4,000 spectators
and while all Of the scoring took place
IN the first half, the interest did not
lag ia the final period, which was fe
plete with sensational plays.
At the beginning Of the first half both
sides felt each other out in the kicking
department, with no great advantage
either way. Then Yale began her tri-
umphant march for touchdown, with
Hoyt making a fun.in OF ] yards ON
receiving a punt. Up to this point

back run, hut instead of carrying the
ball himself he passed to Leayenworth,

formed interference, making 3a-yard
run and planting the bah oil I1inceton's

From this point Yale hammered away
