What term of years this tentative
agreement considered Is not known
definitely. but it is safe to say that it
was not less than two years. Such a
contract would have insured a game at
each university.
But why was the real break in the
negotiations after all of the principal
points had been settled 1t is stated
on the authority of a prominent Prince
ton alumnus hat il was no fault If
the Orange and Black management
that complete arrangements for such a
football game were not consummated.
The lack of such a contest as Harvard
could supply on the Tiger Schedule has
been felt at Princeton for years.
At different times the Tigers have played
Cornell. Columbia, Carlisle and Dart
mouth. aud while all of~thesc ~eleyens have
invariably shown themselves worthy Of
the Princeton steel. not one OF them came
up to the Orange and Black standard and
never gave complete satisfaction TO the
orange and Black graduates or UNDER
graduates. Hence there vas undisguised
qualification when It became generally
known that Princeton would have Har-
ward as a football opponent in 1863. From
the recent turn of affairs there is little
doubt but that the Princeton following IS
now eorrespondineiy disappointed
1t Is not Known at present what in-
huenced Captain Fish aud his advisers to
cease negotiations with Princeton. This
and all other details will be made known
later. On the surface. however. 1t seems
highly probable that schedule difficulties
were the most important considerations
that led Harvard to decline 10 meet
Princeton this year. Harvard tentative
schedule is already a strenuous PROPOSE
ton, including Yale. Dartmouth. Carlisle.
Brown aud either West Point or Annap-
oils.
Princeton and Harvard nave met on The

only eight games have been played he
