beautifully played.

was manifestly piece Of good fortune to
win q game by such q lucky accident as
gave Princeton her victory this afternoon
vet there was no other decision possible for
the play than the one he rendered. He re-
ferred to Rule VI. Section IL. In which a

Interpretation of the rule was possible.
Nothing Is said I'm the code about the
goal not being legal II the ball touches the
ground first. Costello, the linesman, said
that this point was discussed at joint
meeting of the officials and rules commit
tee last fall. and was laid aside as being
too improbable to bother changing the rule,
hut II was declared then that IL such an
accident occurred the goal should count.
Parke n. Davis, the Princeton represen-

the statement made by Costello, and said
the rules committee had done nothing
about such case because it was consid-

How the Game Was Played.

The first period was largely a punting
duel, and ended as it began, with the ball
in the centre of the field As matter OF
fact. Dartmouth worked the ball out of its
own territory from the kickoff, as the
result only of bad tumble by De Witt.
The second period was largely a repeti-
ton of the first. although it furnished
chance for Dartmouth TO score. The ball
was gradually forced to Princeton's thirty
six-yard line by a consistent show of Of
fensive strength. but was there lost on
downs when the Tigers held firmly and
prevented Mowrey from gaining the neces-
sary two Yards. De Witt puntet out OF
danger. but 2 moment later Pendleton
furnhled one OF Jewellers punts and
Englehorn recovered the ball for Darth-
mouth on Princeton's forty-yard line.
This gave the team from Hanover a
chance TO strike. Dudley squrmed through
the centre for two yards. and Mowrey, on
a skin tackle play made ten more. The
princeton defence then frightened. and
when Snow failed to gain through Captain
Hart and Llewellen was thrown back for
a three-yard loss. Hogsett was substituted
for Dudley 10 try goal from the field.
The Dartmouth men In the stand shouted
their approval of this move, but Hogsett
standing on the 6-yard line and 10 one
side. failed by inches 10 score goal with
weu made drop kick. The angle, the
wind and the distance were all against
him.
The ball was brought ont to the &-yard
limo and the tide OF battle quickly turned

est and most brilliant run OF the game he
