"23" FOR PRINCETON.
In short it was a case of "23' for Prince
ton. to use the slang Of the sporting frater-
nifty. OF course another Yale song was
in order and here it is to the air OF Rufus
Rastus johnson Brown:
Princeton. Tiger. n ssau Hall.
What yer gwine to do when you get the BALI
What yer Rwinc to gain
You can't come a runnIn into Els lane,
You can't ri rush the bali, because you can't strike
what Yer E%inc 10 eISE do when you get the BALI
The Princeton host meanwhile arose
and with swinging hats sang the well known
anthem "Old Nassau" with a pathos that
must have appealed to their battered repre-
sentatives on the field. Capt. Cooney was
everywhere. Even with this overwhelm-
ing score han ging over him he did not yield.
He begged his men to fight to the last ditch.
He told them that the honor OF old Prince
ton was at stake and that With the short
time remaining there was still a chance to
score at least once; and so when Princeton
kicked the ball off again the Tigers were
ready for another setto regardless of ach
ing limbs and broken hearts.
With the ball settling in Shevlin's grip,
the Yale captain by tall sprinting reached
his Is yard line, where "A desperate tackle
stood him on his head and made the Jersey
men cheer with renewed courage, Levine
followed with a spanking run of twenty
five wards but the ball was called back,
and Princeton received yards for holding.
Yale then had the ball in front of the
goal posts but rather than take a chance
Of pnntng it from such dangerous position
Bglow and Levine made four yards before
Roome fell back to kick.
KICKS BALL INTO STANDS.
The Yale booter drove the ball into the
New Haven crowd in the stands at the
50 yard line and when it had been taken
in lenney tried quarterback run. He
made eight yards before he was topped
over. Right up, to Iale's 20 yard line.
Princeton carried the ball with despera-
ton that showed the true spirit, but Daub
face covered with blood had to give way
to Tibbit When the battle was resumed
Mum was dragged to the ~ yard line,
the Tigers fighting like wildcats and their
friends urging them on in the hopeless
struggle.
But Yale braced and when the Tigers
had lost several yards the ball was fumbled
and Hutchinson made fine play when he
picked it out of the bunch and was downed
on the 10 yard line Princeton therefore.

in fact the best chance they had all the
afternoon The miSpay clearly di-heart-
ened them and hundreds of their supporters
hurried away.
4 punt was in order and this was where
Roome erred Instead OF kicking the ball
ont of bounds he drove it straight down the
field high and far over the heads of tie
strugg ing players. Tenney, in a jihy
ing through the air he raised his hand above
his head "a a signal that he was about to
make fair catch, He caught the ball on
the AZ yard line and stuck his heel in the
turf while another roar came from those

TOokERs FINE KICK
This play meant trial for goal, either
from placement or drop kick and Tooker
received the oval for the attempt Ordina-
rilY such trial is made from placement.
but Tooker, confident in hi ability to make
a successful drop kick, stood riveted 10 the
spot fondliug the ball and gauging the dis
tance to the goal posts with praCtised eve
Not cheer was heard nor even the SEM
blance of d song as Princeton's 5 hero medi-
tatei.
The seconds ticked off on the watches
held along the side lines, and the Yale men
frowning with anticipated disappointment,
stood in line across the field II seemed
an impossible task, and especially as Tooker
stood at an angle instead of straight in
front Of the posts Then, taking few
steps, he dropped the ball to the ground
and a. it struck the turf he drove his foot
under it and raised it whirling end over end
through space.
Like a rocket. the leather sped onward,
going higher and higher as it gained mo-
mentum, with the Yale team looking up at it
sorrowfully and thousands Of eyes following
il in its flight. Straight on. as If ii had been
fired by a crack marksman. the ball went
clear above the cross bar by thirty feet and
settled down beyond successfully. 1t was !
one of the most eventful goal ever drop
kicked on the grdiron, and thousands,
including men of both factions, cheered

Old timers recalled Geld goal kicked
bv Al Sharpe Of Yale. also from the 42 ward
mark, in the game won bv Poe's famous
goal while others recalled an even longer
drive by Herschberger Of Chicago several
years ago, but neither of these drives was
any better, if as good as this performance
of Tooker's, which will be remembered by
every man who saw il.
