PRINCETON FAILS TO SCORE
Thirty-Five Thousand Persons See
Spectacular Game at Yale.
INTENSE
CLIMAXES
Twice Penalised When
within Striking Distance Of Goal
Orange and Black Loses It's
Only Chance to score.

NEW HAVEN Nov. 13.-Today at Yale
field $4,000 spectators witnessed per-
haps the most spectacular exhibition of
pure foot ball Of the up-to-date type
ever seen in a game between the old
rivals, Yale and Princeton. Yale won by
a score of II to 0.
The game had intense climaxes. Yale,
almost at the outset Of play, using in
the main its old fashioned pile driver
tactics, took the ball steadily down the
field only to be penalized when within
striking distance of Princeton's goal
But the two most interesting crises of
the first half came when a blocked punt
of McCormick's ounted high behind the
goal posts and after a series of spec
tacular fumbles, settled under a Prince
ton player, scoring a safety for Yale
and when soon after a second blocked
punt fell also close to the goal post OF
Princeton, who this time lost the ball to
Liley. Yales' tackle. and with the goal
kicked, an added six went up to Yale's
credit on the score board.
The seconds half also had its in
tense moments. One came when after
an exchange of punts and a forward
pass Yale got within striking distances
Of the Princeton goal and took the bal
over in a series OF plunges.

IOWA IS LAYING FOR KANSAS
Hopes to Retrieve Lost Laurels by
Victory at Lawrence.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Nov. 18.-(Special.)-De-
spite the fact that Iowa has made an in
consistent showing in the present foot ball
season the students look for a strong fin
ish when the team plays Kansas at Law
renee on November 20.
Beginning the season with many handi-
caps Coach John Griffith has developed a
team that knows foot ball in the face of
many handicaps. To start with the Hawk
eyes had the hardest schedule that could
be devised. Not only did the team meet
the best elevens, but it met them at most
insusplcious times from the point of team
development.
Missouri put the Iowans out OF the Mis-
souri, valley running by one point. The
Tigers played subs, but the Hawkeyes were
plainly in a ~lethargy most OF the contest.
A week later Drake, the coming light in
the new conference, took another wallop
at the Hawkeyes and eliminated them from
state honors.
But the Iowa eleven, possessed Of a
knowledge that it is one Of the most pow
erful machines in the middle west for a
part Of every game. is trying to pull to-
gether as 1t did against Nebraska and
triumph over the Jayhawkers in the final
game OF one Of the most a~ggravating
schedules ever played by an Iowa team.
The display Of open play given in the
second half OF the Drake game vas as
founding to Iowa foot ball followers.
Mixed with the powerful tackle smashes
Of Captain Gross and Fullback Murphy
the bewildering formation taught by Coach
Griffith were wonderfully effective. The
spurts in the Missouri game. though for
shorter intervals, revealed the latent power
Of the Hawkeye scoring machine.
To instill a fighting spirit that will carry
victory to the Iowa eleven in the closing
act OF a schedule which has been a tragedy
is the ambition OF the coaches. BY putting
Kansas out OF the Missouri valley cham
pionship the Hawkeyes will not only
avenge last years defeat, but will help
land the title for a sister institution in
this state-Drake university at Des Moines
providing the Christians win from Mis-
souri, and Ames.

game. Page, at quarter, hurled the ball
high to Sauer at left end, who ran to
Cornell's ni~neteen-yard line before he was
downed. Right Halfback Crowley and Full
