Osborne Field. Princeton. y. J., No
vemoer 4.-Prince,on defeated Harvard
in bitterly fought game this after
noon by a score OF to e. While the
Tigers outplayed the husky Crimson
aggregation. their victory was
nevertheless in some respects q fluky
one. The two points lead fell to the
local aggregation. as the result of a
safety a punt by Dewitt carried back
OF Harvard's goal Huntington. the full
back, who was following II, accidently
touched It just before II crossed the
line
Princeton clearly outplayed Harvard
In the trst half OF the game Hart, at
left tackle. was the bulwerk of the
Tigers line, nothing penetra4zs his
wing, and in pulling down -nson
runners. he was accuracy perstlified.
With White. he starred for the Prince
ton aggregation. White scored the
nrst touchdown OF the day by q pretty
run OF more than three quarters of the
distance OF the field and IL was on
one OF the many occasions when Har-
ward miscued. Right under the Tiger
goal. the Crimson for second time
attempted a drop kick; the first had
fallen short, the second was blocked
White bounced upon 1t, scoopns It
up on q dead run. He had clear ield
ahead OF him, and soon shook off the
entire Harvard back field.
Harvards touchdown came In the
second half as the result of perfectly
executed forward pass, and the un-
steadiness OF the Tiger back field de-
veloped In the latter stages OF the
game. 1t was the unsteadness of
Christie, the Tiger quarterback, that
finally put the ball in the danger zone
Princeton's line developed surprising
strength. Time after time II braced
under the shadow of its goal and held
the Crimsons for downs.
In justice TO Harvard. however, il
must be said that she suffered far
more greatly than Princeton in the
matter of injuries. a number of her
first string men were put out Of com
mission in The opening period. The loss
of Potter, the quarterback, was an
especially severe blow. as ne was the
hope OF the Crimson in the punting end
of the game.
The booting OF Reynolds was sadly
disappointing. Blackhan, who was
eventually sent in at full, showed by
far the finest punting of the afternoon,
but the game was almost over when
he got his chance.
Princeton won her unexpected vic
tory by sticking TO straight football.
Harvard showed her hand In fake for
nation, on-side kicks and forward
passes. The Crimson tried every STRAIT
egg at her command Yale scouts were
able to get fine line on her play
Princeton showed absolutely nothing
that she has mp her sleeve for the bull
dog. Furthermore, Princeton made
Harvard look sick in the modified grid
iron game, which the Crimson uncov-
erod from time to time. The lineup:
