Princeton Upsets All Yale's Hopes
Whites Dash to Touchdown Beats Yale, to 3-Yale Showed Nest Football But Failed to Win-Tigers Taste First Victory Over the Bull Dog in Eight Years

After seven years of defeat at the hands of Yale in football, Princeton crushed Yale's championship hopes for this year by defeating the Blue team ( to 3, on Yale field, New Haven, Sat

It was clear field to the goal ahead of him and the
 Yale players stood as if petrified at the turn the game had taken Only Cap

 The game was played on a wet, miry field, with patches of water in spots, downpour of the night and morning. Yale lost because it lacked the final punch to carry the ball the last 10 yards and because of fumbled punts at critical times which Princeton invaria bly, recovered. Yale's attack had Princeton backed up against the Tiger goal posts for almost the whole of the game. and for the whole of the third period Yale drove punt after punt to the Princeton back field, which was not five yards from>its own goal line. It was Ya1e's hope that the Princeton steadiness would waver under the attack. but 1t was a vain hope. In contrast to the fumbles of Yale in catching punts, the Princeton backs, especially Baker, handled every one like major league outf1elders, and If one or two did hit the ground they were gobDled in on the bound by the alert defenders before a Yale man sould profit by the loose ball.
