princeton, n. j., Nov. 1.-THE Yale bulldogs
came on the field first with defiant growI The
husky band of tawny Jungle tigers rushed on
the field with contented purring sound. There
was little preliminary work and then Captain
Morse called the spin Of the coin and chose to
defend the north goal. RuIon-Miller's first at
tempt at kickoff went outside but on the
second try he sent the ball spinning to Tad"
Jones' on Yales 20-yard line. The feet Yale
quarterback wrggled back fifteen yards before
Tiger pounced on him. Yale at once took ad-
vantage of a slight wind. and Veeder called
upon to punt on the first down. Harlan FUN
bled the ball, but Eddie" Dillon fell on it.
Rulon-Miller was intrusted with the pigskin on
Princeton's first offensive play. He set the
Tiger stands wild by making good gain. Nc
Cormiok fumbled. and a Yale man fell on the
ball Jones signalled for fake kick and Veeder
fell back as if TO punt but Knox took the ball
for line smash. The Tigers were not to be
fooled, and clawed the wiry Knox to earth with
out gain. Veeder was then called on to punt
and he gained clean ten yards on the ex-
change.

ground, tossed the ball to blue-clad warrior
instread of Cap" Wister After Knox had
gained six yards Veeder and Harlan exchanged
punts and then Yale worked the forward pass
Feeder to Alcott, tor a clean 15-yard gain.
But the effect Of this good work was soon
overcome by the kings of the jungle On the
next play orange and black sweater flashed
behind the Blue line, and with a a bull
dog was slashed to earth by the hercer claws of
q Tiger. When the mass untangled it was
found that Cap" Wister. going with the speed
of an express tram, had eluded Forks, and
catching Knox behind his own line had thrown
him for big loss.
Then Dillon. the elusive young man." lodged
three Yale players and ran back Veeder's punt
four yards.
The only thing Princeton supporters could see
at this point was a Princeton victory. But the
next play dashed their hopes for the time being

after Jones's favorite~fake- kick line smash play
had also failed to gain, Veeder sent long 40
yard spiral TO Dillon.

ment at the Yale forwards bearing down upon
him under full sail, then got under the ball.
