in FarCiCal Contest.
ATTACK GETS NO TEST
Princetonians Play Good and
Bad Ball in Turn-Rest
for Pendleton.
fBy Telegraph to The Tribune.

Princeton. N. j.. Nov 9.-PIaying foot
ball which ranged from the schoolboy
type TO championship quality, Princeton
showed New York University under here
to-day by the score OF 81 to 0. The Tigers
had things all their own way from start
10 finish, but at times showed a surprls-
ingly weak attack and general raggedness
of play. "Hobey'' Baker, De Witt and
Waller were the bright stars of the after
noon and tore through the visitors line
as If It had been made of paper.
Captain Pendleton was not in to-day's
lineup and enjoyed a complete rest. This
is the first game that Toll has failed TO
start In since he entered college. in 1909.
Logan was another OF the veterans who
had a day OF, and II. Waller was in at
Andrews's place at left end. Wright
played right end, and he played II 10
perfection. He was I'm every play and
down the field under kicks like lightning
II his knee bothered him any II could
not be seen from the side lines. Trenk-
man was another lively cripple, who
showed what he could do at right tackle
for a while. when Penfald withdrew.
At the opening OF the game Princeton's
game showed at it's worst After an eX-
change OF punts and several Intellectual
attempts at line plunglng. "Hobey" Baker
tried a drop kick from tho 2s-yard line,
but the ball went wide of the posts.
Finally Waller succeeded In smashing
through tackle for the first hard earned
touchdown. After that the Tiger attack
got going. and rolled up two more touch
downs before the quarter ended. "Hobcy'
Baker and Waller did most Of the work
Of carrying the ball, and were each re-
sponsible for tally.
New Yorks only chance 70 score came
in the second period, when .He visitors
held the ball In Princetons territory.
Smith dropped back for a try at goal,
but his kick was hurried and went far 70
the left. Stew Baker gave the Tiger
attack thorough workout In this quarter.
Split plays. double passes and a partlcu-
larly successful quarterback run around
end were used.
Dewitt. whose gains through the line
came easy to-day, was responsible for
Prlnceton's fourth score. Waller got
loose for an eighty-yard run for a touch
down and II. Baker followed this up
with hfty-yard dash through a
broken field, bringing the Tigers within
striking distance again The first half
ended with the score, Princeton 40, New
York University 0.
In the second half New York University
came back clearly weaker, and II was
merely a question OF how big a score
Princeton should elect TO run up. III.
Waller played fast, heady game at left
end in this period. Earle Waller, with
his consistent line plunging, added still
another touchdown 10 his credit before
the third quarter ended. The Tigers
seemed 10 be taking things easy In the
latter part OF the one-sided contest and
were content with a final tally by "Hobey"
Baker, bringing the total TO eight touch
downs AS a contest In preparation for
Saturdays battle with Yale, the game was
decidedly disappointing
New York's defence was too weak to
give Princeton's attack a real test. On
the defence, with the exception Of the
ends, the Tigers forwards seemed TO be
loafing. There was no need for them to
show much speed, and they consequently
were slow in charging and careless in
tacklng. A week Of practice will do a
lot for the team, but II will have to be
a strenuous week TO whip them into cham
pionship form.
