 not having been made the leather went to Princeton.
 These were instances of the hearts, aching, breaking pace of the game, spectacular much of the time. sepsa- Ettonal in tts developments all of the time.J Yale wasl never at her ease, for Princeton's grit was seen throughout the second half when it seemed as if her men were outplayed because they
 were played out, and there was always
 
 snatch Victory from the jaws Of the Yale Bull Dog.
 Todays game was so full of the good things which had been worked out as far as possible under the revised rules, that an anaylsis of the work of both teams called for ample calculation of the condition which varied with the pressing moments. In the first half, as in last year tu the non-seore game, 1t seemed to be all Princeton She had elected to receive the ball on the kick or and through the half, her energies were directed to keeping possession Of the ball, to run her plays swift, with q sharp attack; plenty of end runs and when forced to do so. dropping Harlan back for hicks which were Ions, high and fnely directed.
 Yale found herself on the defensive, and when she had the ball, her plays wera atartad without much speed and they did not seem to work, her wing shifts and plays outside of the tackle being broken up. Yale's formation on the defensive was so open that 1t did not seem hard for Mccormick to drive through the line, assisted by Harlan and Tibbetts. In this half, Princeton made 29l yards by rushing. against 11S by Yale. In the second half. Yale rushed the ball 223 yards as against 3S yards bH Princeton, evidenee that Yale
 
 The first touchdown came after Jones had failed on an on-side kick, Booth or Princeton getting the ball and runJnns seventy yards for touchdown. Not many minutes later Princeton got the ball on kick. by Coy and after Yale tried two end runs with little success, delayed passes wSfesused as if the snap back, McCormick And eAarian going through the wings so that the ball reached Yale's sixteen yard line in front of the goal. What happened then was expected for Harlan's toe was a good medium to add four more points
 The second half is story. in itself. The same men were there but Yale played real football, keeping the ball when she got it, harnmertng the Prince ton line at every chance until both the tackles seemed In bad shape and max ing the Princeton ends run themselves after dropping back as if to Kick. or the very elusiye Jones. Many times only little DiIlon stood between him and the goal line T,6 but he Ss,nwiSx waS SufeS nm down by an ankel hold.
 Every minute of play brought some, thing unexpected. Princeton rushed against 1s5 for Yale. Harlan punted nine times for an average of thirty five yards as against Coy's seven for an average of thirty mine. Yale made three SucCcBSIul paSoOS fifty-two yards while Princeton work ed only one for ten yards. Princeton lost the ball once on-side KICK anu gained fifteen yards on another try and Yale lost once on similar play. Three out of four of Harlan's tries for a field goal failed and each team lost the ball once on a tumble. Individual iy, Coy of Yale, did the most work in ground gaining.
 The game had for a setting an amphi-t theatre of humanity in which the sombre weather raiment was re- lieged with yellow chrysanthemums. orange blossoms, large punches or violets and blue manners.
