Princeton team had the satisfaction of

As a Foot Ball Study.
OF the game as a foot ball study 1t was
the old story of well-learned lesson on
the part of Yale. with plenty of resources
If they were needed. But she did not show
a diversified attack, not even the variety
used In last weeks stubborn game with
Brown. She scored in the first half by
straight plunging line plays, which began
to have the desired effect after muff of
a punt on DillonS part. Yale was In better
shape in the second half, and by adopting
open play she was able to wear down her
opponent, and at the same time make mat
tiers interesting. So fast did Hutchinson
rush his men that 1t looked if the Orange
was surely going to lose its feet. and it
required Princeton's hymn For Old Mas
sau' to bring about some of the stone-wall
defense for which Old Nassau is noted. A
few minutes before the end Princeton rail-
lied and carried the ball to the Yale ten
yard line, there to lose it on tumble. Yale,
to get out of danger. resorted to kick, but
1t covered only thirty-three yards. and
fair catch gave Tooker his opportunity to
win glory and for the Princeton side to
score.
The visitors found the weak spot to be
Forbes on the left side. until Yales sec
ondary defense stopped up the hole and
helped out Forbes and Gates The same
wing was also Princeton's weak place and
the understanding Vac backs seemed to
be able to get through there with consid-
cradle ease, although not for long dis
tances. In all the game, Yale used but
one crossbuck and one double pass. tackle
and guard plays being apparently all that
was required as ground gamers against the
line Yale's interference was good formed

Yale's offense in Second HALF.
The power Of Yale offense was shown I'M
mistakably in the second half Princeton
had good ends, but they were frequently
boxed, which was the secret of Yale's abl-
ity to make runs. Princeton had good
attack, although Capt Cooney had to be
of he 1a.o
game he appeared well tired out.
Substitutes were many in her lineup,
while Yale had no need to put in any, so
well trained were Yale's men.
The features Of the game were the dashes
Of Hutchinson who has never played bet
ter. The first time he made twenty-eight
yards, during which he made flying leap
over a Princeton tackler, and the second
time he covered seventy yards and was
pulled down only when twenty-five yards
from Princeton's goal. In eleven rushes
after this Yale had a touchdown. Elan
deN, the big Yale center, also made a
good run, when he caught bounding ball
and covered twenty-three yards from the
broken field Of players Morse had an end
run of twenty-eight yards and Roome an
other of fifteen. There was plenty of kick
ing and Yale easily led. Penalties were
frequent.
Princeton Wins the Toss.
Princeton won the toss and elected to
defend the north goal Bigelow of Yale
kicked off to Dillon, whose run back was
broken by Forbes, enabling Shevlin to
throw him on the 25-yard line. Mccormick
bucked the line for yard, but for holding
in the line Princeton was penalized fifteen
yards Bard kicked to Hutchingson ON
Princeton's 45-yard line, Hutchinson muf-
fed and Princeton took the ball. Yale
stopped the first charge and the second.
Mccormick kicked to Veeder on Yale's 30
yard line, and from that point on Yale
never lost the ball. going straight down
the field to a touchdown. Only once during
that march down the field did Yale kick,
but Dillon's tumble gave Bigelow the ball
and prevented Princeton from making
ground back. Forbes went over for the
touchdown and Hutchinson kicked goal.
From this point the ball changed
hands several times. both teams gaining
in streaks but being compelled to punt
several times in order to get out Of danger.
the field toward the latter part OF the
half, but the kicks were poor ones. The
half ended with the ball in Princeton's
possession near the center of the field.
The Second Half.
The two teams took the field for the
second half without any change in line
up. Yale got the kickoff but soon was
forced to punt. Princeton bucked Yale's
line but also was forced to kick and the
same fate again fell to Yale. Then after
few short gains Mum. who succeeded
Bard, kicked, and blenders, Yale's center,
seized the ball and ran twenty-three yards
to Princeton's 15-yard line.
Yale was penalized for holding ana
Hutchinson kicked. Princeton soon kicked
back to Hutchinson. whose sensational run
was q feature of the game. In his course
he jumped clean over the head of Prince
ton man and landed the bail on Princeton's
twenty-eight-yard line. After about ten
plays Yale showed Flynn over for her sec
ond touchdown Hutchinson failed at goal.
Brasher was badly hurt in Yale's on
slaught and carried from the field. Tenney
went In for e. Dillon. Princeton's kick-on
went to Shevlin. who ran the bali back
twenty-five yards. Yale failed to gain
much territory and punted to midfeld.
Princeton made eighteen yards in three
tries Tenney tried quarterback kick and
Hutchinson caught the ball on his own
thirty-yard line and dashed through the
broken field with Yale's team blocking on
Princeton tacklers splendidiy until Tenney,
by cutting across the field, headed Hutch

It was another sensational run. On short
gains through center Yale ran the ball to
