yard line. Tibbott was downed in his tracks

Mount Pleasant being thrown by Wister before he
could move. An exchange of punts followed. as
neither team could make any sustained advance by
rushing. and consequently resorted to a kicking
game in tho hope that tumble would earn an ad-
vantage
Slowly but surely however, the battle was forced
into Carlisle territory Tibbott breaking through
the line a delayed pass for OF twenty
five yards With the ball the centre of the
field, Harlan punted and when Indian fumbled

dropped back as IL for a drop kick. He got off an
onsde kick instead and the Princeton fell

yards through the centre and Tiobott ten or
twelve more around left end, that in the next
scrimmage the teams lined up under the very
shadow of Carlisle's goal post Three times Cap
tain Mccormick went head first into the line and
the third attempt he carried the ball the
first touchdown. The Princeton stands blOESomed
forth a bright yellow and a mighty cheer went up,
for that touchdown spelled victory with big V.
After Harlan had kicked the Poal Hauser kicked
off for Carlisle to Tbbott, who the ball back
twenty-five yards After two tries at the centre
had failed Harlan punted and Mount Pleasant mis-
judged the ball Wister Of Princeton, secured IT in
the scramble and started for the goal line, only
twenty yards away. Two Indians laid him low,

TIBBOTT's LONG RUN FOR TOUCHDOWN.
In the second half Princeton played q defensive
game to a large extent. as the game won. to
all intents and purposes. and the team simply
worked to keep the Indians from scoring. Hauser
kicked off to Dillon Princeton's 1O-yard line,
and the fleet quarterback made one Of his brilliant
lodging through broken field and carried
ball to the centre OF the field before Indian
laid him low. Tibbott got six yards through the
centre and Harlan punted, that the
fight was being waged in Carlisle territory. as
Brown threw Mount Pleasant in his tracks the
Indians 20-yard line. An exchange of punts fol-
lowed Princeton resorting to this method on the
first down three times. Mount Pleasant got in one
pretty lodging for thirty yards around left
end, and Hauser duplicated this few moments
later but the Princeton defence was too strong for
any consecutive ground gaining, and both teams
went back the punting game.
Finally, with the ball In the centre of the field
Tibbett shot around left end and started for the
Carlisle goal line, fifty yards away Exendine
was blocked off, and, try they would no other
Indian could reach the speedy back, who rushed
across the line and planted the ball directly be-
We q
the 10 TO 0.
Tho Indians fought on against the hopeless odds
with the one idea that would make defeat
less hard to bear. They tried every play from the
forward pass to onside kick. but the forward
passes failed completely. while the Tigers solved
the other plays with quickness and precision end

that the game won, took T1bbett. Dillon, Booth
and Buckingham. and finally Mccormick. out Of the
game, sending in substitutes. Mccormick rad to
be fairly dragged off the field, he wanted to stay
in &c tho finish, but his protests in vain
Even with the substitute team Carlisle could
make little headway, but there may have been scme
excuse for this. Mount Pleasant and Hauser had
played themselves OCt, that Island and Owl took
Princeton once more forced the ball into Carlise's
territory. that Harlan was called on sor an
other try at a goal from the field. The ball was
blocked, however, and shortly afterward the game
