CAN Do SO AGAIN

NEW HAVEN, CONN, Nov. H.
Though some of the men were slightly
bunged up rs the result of the unex-
pectedly strenuous Princeton attack,
and Flynn's neck was twisted by Wal
Ter In his over jealous style of play,
causing him TO be ruled off the field
by the officials, the Yale men came off
the field In good physical condition.
1t was learned tonight that Flynn is
Just as good now as when he started
the game, so that Walters playing has
made no permanent impression on the
Yale team.
Yale expected to beat Princeton.
This was the opinion OF the Yale UNI
cergraduates. the Yale players and the
= ale coaches. The coaches had seen
princeton play, and most o. them
were present at the Harvard Prince
ton game. Some CT the players had
seen Princeton play. Their views
were the same as the coaches. II
didn't seem possible that Yale should
not win. and the fact that Yale tied
the score flguratively by the skin of
it's teeth came as a tremendous sur
prise.
But Yale hopefulness and confidence
rs irrepressible. In spite of the tie
score Saturday, and the fact that Yale
WIS admittedly outpiayed by Prince
ton, the Yale coaches and undergrad
yates expect TO defeat Harvard next
Saturday, and an atmosphere of con-
fidence prevails On the campus to-
night. This Is particularly due to the
x. eat kick OF Pumpellys, which adds
his name to the small list of Yale
drop-kickers in the history of foot
ball The drop Kick has always BEEN
menace to Yale, but this year IL is
almost hope. The fact that Pumpeliy
came out Of the game unhurt is az
much of a relief as the report that
there lis not an injured man I'm the
whole squad. Pumpeily has taken the
place of FlynA IS = Yale idol. and
the fact that Flynns punting would
have been the feature of the game
had Yale lost, has given place to
Pumpelly's drop kicking as respoRsi-
BILE for the tie score.
Another thing which adds to Yale
confidence. though the coaches 90 not
admit II. is the result OF the Yale
Harvard freshman game last year.
when the Yale freshman team, made
up entirely of academic men. stopped
Brfckiey, who was then a. Harvard
freshman. md the result was that the
$50 - NTA~As@Ht% NNt&AAs VI within wv
nell was captain. came off the field
undefeated. Flynn and Markie. who
have done much work this year. were
then ineligible. because of the ban laid
by the faculty of Sheffield Scientific
school. The same men who stopped
frfckisy In the Harvard freshman
game last year will be on the varsity
field next Saturday. all improved over
their condition of last year and re-
inforced by Flynn and Markie. Brick
ley couldn't be worse than Hobby"
Baker, the Yale men figure. and Yale
was able to come out even with him.
Yale has never had trouble with Wen
dell In two years that he had played
on Harvard. 1t has always been a
Yale tumble or some dark horse that
has blocked the varsity. and II Is with
this feeling that Yale awaits the APP
preach OF Harvard next Saturday.
Yale takes a good deal of pride In
the defense Of the varsity last Sat
nrday, though perhaps 1t did not come
quite up TO expectations. Some gains
were made through one of the guard
positions late in the game, but it was
the fumhles of the game and Yale
mistakes rather than poor defense
which prevented Yale from winning
The line-up which Yale viii use
next Saturday will be the same as
started the game last Saturday. And
let It be said that Yale gives her
greatest thanks to Bomeisler despite
the trick OF Pumpelly. Whatever the
Yale rooters who are coming back to
New Haven by the hundreds now have
to say in favor or against the Yale
team. they are unanimous in their
praise of the great end. who played
with a brace on his shoulder that

unanimity in the praise for Ketcham.
who settled once and for all time
which between himself and Blue
thenthal was the greater center. and
incidentally settled that he will be
captain of the Yale eleven for next
year.
Yale men admire the consistent
playing Of Captain Spalding, which
was marked by no spectacular fea
ture. but which found him in every
play; the way Phiibin hit the line
the few times he carried the ball.
the punting of Flynn: the aiI-around
playing OF Bomeisler and Ketcham;
the kicking Of pumpeliy. and around
these men the four days of the week
will be spent In building up an at
tack to defeat Harvard; for the de-
Tense is good enough
