tie Harvard and Princeton in the past
played a series of three games for a

years ago, on the ground that the series
unsettled the college work Of the play
ers. For a while only one game was
played. and when this proved unsatis-
factory a compromise was made and
two games were played, one at Cam
bridge and the other at Princeton. But
this. too, was unsatisfactory if each
side won a game
