The next time the Tiger kicked he sent
the ball twisting over and over straight
into the arms Of Tad Jones. The Yale

Neither man was hurt and Yale. with the
idea Of testing Princeton's attack, decided
TO begin a kicking game. Veeder, a bulky,
light haired chap, who did all the .Punting
for Yale. then lifted the oval well down
the field into Princeton's ground. where
little Harlan. probably suffering from a
case Of ~rattles, fumbled the ball for a mo-
ment, then scrambled after IL as II rolled
over the ~ g ~ turf, and finally missed IL
altogether.

Big Forbes, Yale's left end. was coming
like a racehorse as this happened and
thousands of men with blue days leaped
up in frenzy. II Forbes had secured the
ball nobody knows what would have hap
pened, but when he was within a few feet

star quarterback, made a headlong dive
and pinned the ball under him on Prince

back as il to punt, but no sooner had he
received the ball from his quarterback than
he began a daring run aroun Yale's right

when the Tiger ran out OF bounds he had
covered seventeen yards. This startling
play was quickly forgotten. however, v hen
Harlan, the little halfback, made a school
boy tumble as he was being driven through
the right wing Of Yaleis line, and when
Biglow fell upon the ball on Yale's As yard
line there were cheers from New Haven and
groans from Jersey.
Low Yale began the first real assault in
the rushing line, but Il amounted TO nothing.

accurate drive. which Knox cOrralled on
Yale's 81 yard line, only to be downed in his
tracks by Wister and Hoagland, who were
there almost before the ball fell into the
Yale mans arms. nox began Yale's at

heli.
When Rulon- Miller had beaten back for
a loss OF two yards Harlan, who did ex-
cellent kicking in all of the game, runted
to Knox. The latter scooted back to YaIe's
2?-yard line where Princeton received the
bah for holding. The fence was CON-

grabbed two orronepts around the waist
and prevented them from getting at Knox

PRINCETON LosEs CHANCE To GORE.
Tear them up Princeton. Touchdown!
Touchdown" shrieked thousands Of frantic
men and women as they waved hats, canes
and umbrellas and for the m lost
their senses. But the Tigers were too
anxious. They wanted to settle Yale then
! and there for all time, so IL seemed, and
they proceeded to break the rules against
holding in such a fragrant manner that the
lh-vard Tenalty which was prom tly In
J hicted seemed altogether too lenient On
the 9O-yard line Princeton might have
tried for a goal from the field, in fact hun

to make the game decisive.
There was no fuss about Yale's plan of
attack and pell nell ran Knox between
Stanard and Cooney for a &c In Of six yards.
Tad Jones, however, spoiled this good
beginning with a glaring tumble on Y3le's
i3 yard line, and as it seemed impossible
to mike up the rest Of the required dis
to punt, his drive dropping into E. Dillon's
outstretched binds on P inceton's 81 yard
line, where Forbes and Ri Glow fs ttened
him out like a panco Ike with a combined
tackle OF great ferceness.
StraiKhtaway Harlan returned this punt
to Jones, who WAS tumbled on his head on
Yale's II yard line. Then Knox got in a
beautiful onside kick by which Alcott
gathered in twelve yards. 1t wos a superb
bit OF team play, and made the Princeton
throng sit Ip and take notice. In fact
it gave the first reel line on Ytle's ctui
ability. and as a result the Yale army plucked
up courage.

two more through the left wing. Then

Right here the star play OF the game
