--
Princeton, n. j.. Nov. 1.-THE foot.
ball championship viii be decided
Saturday NJ New Haven when Prince.
otn and Yale meet In their annual
game. The defeat ut the hands OF
the Indians has put Harvard practic-
ally out OF the running and although
Yale has been defeated by the Army
a victory over Princeton and Harvard
will give them frat place In the rank
Ing for the season. Princeton In the
only team that has not been defeated
so far this season. and the Tigers are
gl0ng TO put up q wonderful game
against the Ellis on Saturday For
the last eight years the Yale eleven
has always managed 20 win IN foot
hall against the Tigers. Last year
the Princetonians we're sure OF q VIC
tory. bat finally lost. g TO 3. This year
the Yale team has not made a brill.
liant record. bat II IN much better
than last seasons and there In no
feeling OF over confidence at Prince

The Tiger coaches are working on
n new theory this year ami the show
ing OF the team 90 far would Indicate
that II has been successful. Hereto
fore the development OF the team han
been rushed and the men were work
Ing together early In the season and
when the big games came along they
seemed 10 have gone stale So far
this year a great deal Of time has
been spent on building up a strong
defense and holding development OF
the attack until the last. The result
has been that Princeton has played
two tic games--in fact. practically
three. TOR the Victory over Dartmouth
was hardly earned Nothing has been
shown 40 far IN the line of formations
and In the games against Harvard
and Dartmouth the Tigers did not
use the forward pass a. all. A won

DE Wit. snd he has been respon.
sible for n great deal OF Princeton's
good showing.
The Princeton coaches have work.
cd out large number OF good plays
aud formations and y the team can
work them With any success there will
be- some surprises az New Haven next
Saturday. There are fast men on the
Princeton team who ought TO use new
football for good gains. hut so far no
