eight Yards in two attempts. Captain
Siegiing missed a wonderful chance. let
ting "a Yale back recover an ou-side
kick that lay AZ his feet. Apparently
he thought he had heard the referees
whistle. for he stood still He redeemed
himself a few minutes later. partly at
least after Yale had forced the hall well
into Princeton's territory. for he smashed
down a long forward pass by Coy and
ran twenty-five yards before he was
downed. Read swung a beautiful for
ward pass TO Cunningham for a gain of
twenty-five wards and the ball was I'm
