Princeton. y. J.. Oct 3.-The Princeton
varsity football team was lucky TO defeat
the scrub this afternoon. the practice end
ing with TIE first team in the lead by the
smallest possible margin of one point The
offensive work Of the first string OF backs
lacked its usual strength, and. except for
several sensational lodging runs by Pen
dleton and q cleverly manipulated forward
pass Pendleuon to Bredemus. the varsity
could make little headway against the sec
ond eleven. on the other hand, the scrub
could not gain consistently against the
varsity, whose defence was strong.
Dunlop, who generally manages to be
Johnny on the SPOT" when a fumhle or
blocked kick occurs. snatched up the ball
or a tumble by a varsity player and with
q clear field before him ran twenty yards
for a touchdown. Sawyer failed TO kick
the goal, and 50 gave the varsity a chance
10 win.
The first teams touchdown came as a
result Of a forward pass from Pendleton
10 Bredemus which was beautifully exc
cuted. the play netting thirty yards.
Sparks was busy with his work this af-
ternoon and was unable TO report. Bard
took his place. and although light man,
he is quick and played a creditable game
Perhaps the comparatively poor showing
OF the varsity was due To the usual blue
Monday practice and the team is expected
to draw UP better before the Villanova
game on Wednesday.
Brown one of the most promising candi-
dates for end. was declared ineligible by
the faculty to-day. and so Roper has been
set back once more in his quest for run
ming mate to Bredemus who is playing
ut
tackle on the scrub for the last two years,
is showing up remarkably well this fall,
ana will undoubtedly make the first squad
this year.
