VICTORY FOR YALE.
Tigers Were outplayed and Decisively
Beaten.

Beaten.
On soggy, slippery gridiron Yale's
heavy weights scored a signal triumph
over the Princeton varsity foce ball eleven
at Princeton, N. j., Saturday afternoon in
the presence of $4,000 spectators. In al
most every respect Yale was master of
the situation, although after rolling up II
points in the first half the Blues were
unable to score during the second period
In the first ten minutes of play Princeton
held her own, neither side gaining a yard
as the ball passed backward and forward
Then came Leavenworth's sensational 30
yard run. in which Princeton,s quarter

| out of the game. Expert reports from
the game say he was injured, but news
| from the inside" is to the effect that he
| did a little smuggling and was caught at 1t
by the umpire. Burke protested manfully
| against being put out of the game, as his
| offense was slight but the umpire was
| obdurate, and Tenney took his place. The
| disqualification of Burke appeared to take
| the life out of the Tigers, and from the
time he disappeared from the game Prince
| ton was on the defensive.
Yale displayed not only power in both
! defense and attack, but the speed with
which the New Haven men rushed their
| formations through to success fairly swept
| the Tigers of their feet.
| 1t was all Yale in the first half. The
| Blues. using Bloomer, Hogan, OYsley and
Leavenworth, tore Prnceton's defense to
ribbons. So great was the supremacy of
the New Haven eleven that when the half
ended ii was freely predicted that the
| Jerseymen would be buried under score
| of about 80 to 0. But in the second half,
| in spite Of the persistent hammering of
| Yale. the Tigers showed wonderful recup-
| erative powers and played some foot ball
| that temporarily delighted their army of
| followers.
1t was the time-honored line smashing
| through the center and tackles that en-
| abled Bloomer to score the first touchdown,
| while not long afterward Kinney blocked
| n punt close to the Tigers line, and Leaven-
worth in the mad scramble for the oval.

| In point of physical stamina. Yale was
| far ahead OF Princeton. The supposed Grip

game full of fight. and 1t was not until
| the second half that Owsleys leg compelled
| him to give way to Finn, which was the
only change in the original makeup of the
blue eleven.
| The Tigers, on the other hand. outweighed
| as they were. were pretty we'll used up.
| Capt. Foulke had to withdraw in the second

| struggled with the coachers and physicians
| to be allowed to remain in the fray. Fur

Foulke. Cooney, Ritter and Miller made
| some dazzling plays for the orange and
black in the face of great odds, while Lea
Shevlin Hoyt and Owsley were the chief
/ factors in Yale victory.
| Ideal weather conditions prevailed and
the conflict was remarkably free from un-
pleasant features. Yale was favorite at
| 10 to right up to the moment that the
bali was kicked off, and thousands of dol
lars changed hands on the result.
Pennsy Had Easy Time With Carlisle.
| The Carlisle foot ball warriors. who the
| last two years proved stumbling blocks to
| the Pennsylvania eleven, were convinced
Saturday at Philadelphia that there is a
new spirit in the Red and Blue team, and
they were defeated decisively by score
| of IS to O. The Indians were never rally
dangerous, although twice In the latter part

the game most interesting one from the

| But from the first 1t was evident to the
| experts that Pennsylvania men were not

i seemed to be playing largely on nerve and
| before the close of the game many substi-
| buttons were necessary. 1t would be un-
| fair to single out any one or two players
| on the Pennsylvania team as being worthy
of special credit but to the spectators the
| work of Stevenson was the spectacular
| feature of the day, and on all sides 1t is
| admitted that Pennsylvania has in him the
| star quarter back of the year. Three times
| in the first half Stevenson alone stood be-
/ tween an Indian runner and the Pennsyl-
vania goal line. Each time the Indian
runner was nailed by flying tackle. while
