ing with uncovered heads and singing
the famous old song Of Old Nassau,
500 Princeton students remained at
Yale field this afternoon while yale
men were triumphantly marching off
e1e 6Gld behind their band and sang
the praises of their team that had lust
gone down to defeat by a score of %
to 4 at the hands of their old rival
Yale. And well they did, for the
Tiger team that was defeated by Yale
today WIS one Of the best elevens that
Princeton ever had and didnot give up
the fight until almost their entire team
had been taken of and new men sent
IN and then wound up the game with
a goal from field by Tooker.
By Sheer Superiority.
Yale won by force OF sheer football
superiority, both in the science Of the
game and in physical prOWess- hut
won over no insignificant foe. Prince
ton actually gained more ground than
Yale in the first half and fought like
tigers to the last ditch, but did not
have the scoring power. The score
Of % to 4 does not give Princeton
credit for playing that was close to
Yale's standard during most of the
game But as the game wore on it
was seen that the Tigers were less and
less ready to take advantage of their
opportunities and held Yale more and
more feebly. Their strength as well as
their material gave out and Yale swept
them from the field a victor, scoring
once in the first half when the Tigers
were fresh and three times in the sec
ond half when they tired out
A Spectacular Game.
1t was game that will long be re-
nembered in Yale and Princeton and it
was spectacular from start to finish,
fun Of brilliant Individual plays and
features. 1t was one Of the fastest games
the two universities ever played and
the cieauest- But the relentless scoring
machine that Yale let loose on the Tig-
ers could not be stopped; possibly no
team in the country could stop it.
Princeton's one consolation was that she
was the first team to score on Yale this
season and that by a drop kick from
the As yard line, a sensational end to a
sensational game TOoker, who did the
trick. following in the footsteps of
Dewitt and Poe, had been looked to by
the Tigers to score, but had failed in
his first trial with the score % to 0

out at the yale As yard line and heeled,
