The balloon finally descended al

When found in a field, she was un-

her body cut and bruised. Her con-
dition il critical, but physicians are
hopeful that she will recover.

the country would be invited to give

The fact that the leading bankers
hold different views of the effect OF
the new legislation, particularly with
regard of the possible reduction OF

DEFEAT INSPIRES
TIGERS To BEAT.
TWO OLD FOES
Dartmouth Victory Makes Prince
ton Players Realize They Must
Beat Harvard and Yale.
By W. H. ("Big Bill")
Edwards.
New York City Street Cleaning Com
missioner and One of Princeton's
Most Famous Gridiron Heroes.

mOSt dTnouS 1TloTOn heroes.
FEW YORK, Nov. 7-Those loya'
" supporters of Princeton who
follow with keen interest the
! progress of the football team were
very much disappointed over the de-
feat by Dartmouth a week ago last
Saturday. While the team was being
defeated one could occasionally see
flashes of good plays and team work
There was much in evidence which
gave the Princeton admirers some
hope of strong team. Dartmouth
took the winning ball home to Han
over with them and left Princeton
with the bitterness of defeat.
The team keenly realized that Dart
mouth had beaten them on their home
grounds, and every player rallied
around Baker, the great Princeton
| the Dartmouth defeat would mean 4
victory over Harvard and Yale.
Every man was filed with determi-
nation to square himself and make
good for that defeat Every practice
game at Osborne Field last week gave
evidence Of the Princeton team get
ting together. Defeat is hard to bear
but 1t has it's lesson.
When the Princeton team lined up
against Holy Cross on Saturday
every man was eager for the oppor-
tunity of showing what he could do.
There had been some changes made
by the coaches in the Princeton team
during the past week, and in the Holy
Cross game every player played well.
1t still gave the Princeton admirers
excellent opportunity to see that there
was some chance of a good, strong
eleven at Prinveton this year, The
progress was notable, and the team
play had improved a great deal.
But the large score of the victory
over Holy Cross on Saturday was not
one that would allow Princeton men
or it's team to be carried away or to
make them very conceited.
Anyone who thinks that Princeton
has any idea that beating any team
is a cinch Is very much mistaken.
Princeton started in yesterday to
work all the harder ito defeat Har-
ward on Saturday"
That is the slogan at Princeton all
this week, and the team will not lis
ten to anything but Victory!
Princeton always expects to win,
but it realizes that it has a terribly
hard task Princeton does not for
get the unsatisfactory game played by
its team in the Stadium last year.
Saturday is Princeton's chance-their
opportunity to even up matters
| have never seen the Princeton
eleven more filled with the spirit I'VE
have got to win" than the team at
Princeton this year.
Yale's defeat on Saturday is only
going to mean that she Is going
through this week Just what Prince
ton passed through last week. While
defeat from Colgate Is hard for
her to bear, 1t will be forgotten IL
Yale wins from Harvard and Prince

Many Get Confused Over Plays

last part of paragraph (b).
The trouble seems , come in whan
trying to fathom the meaning of the
words unless it shall have crossed
the line of scrimmage." .
This simply means that even if the
opponents do not actually touch the
punted ball, if you will kick the ball
across the scrimmage line you con-
structively give them as good a chance
as you could possibly have at secur-
ing its possession, and if neverthe-
less they do not succeed in getting 1t
the fault is their own, and they should
lose 1t. Still we must not forget that,
for all this, none of the punter's side
can recover 1t unless he is on side
and that we know he can only be If
he was back of the ball at the in
slant II was kicked. Now, as the
punting team is required to have at
least seven men on the rush line the
instant the ball goes into play, and
the punter makes an eighth man,
there remain but three others Of the
punters side who can possibly be on
side to thus secure the punt, while all
Of the opposing eleven men are on
side and are entitled to get the ball If
they can. Hence the chances of the
punters side may be said to be only
about three in ten.
NOW, The thing actually works out
~ as follows: Suppose a team has
lost four yards on the first down and
eight more on the second down--a to-
tai of twelve yards-whiCh, with the
ten II originally had to go to make
first down, means that it must now
make 20 yards, and that in only two
remaining downs. They recognize the
practical impossibility of the thing
and decide to try an on-side kick,
which they do The kick goes three
yards beyond the scrimmaRe line, and
as it comes down one of their three
backs, all Of whom were on side, man
ages to get under ii and catch It. The
ball is now still in the possession Of
the same side, but II is still nineteen
yards away from the spot to which
before the kick they were required to
advance the ball If they elected to
keep 1t constantly in their possession
and use their four consecutive downs.
But as a matter of football law they
do now have nineteen yards yet to
GAIN and it is not fourth down. No,
they elected to kick the ball. and to
kick it across the sCrimmage line, and
to give thereby the opponents a fair
and equal chance of securing it; and
having done so, yet nevertheless re-
covered it legitimately themselves
they are now entitled to its posses
sion and for a first down." and with
only the uusal ten yards to go for
another first down.

Vanderbilt Coach Hopes the Team
viii Break Losing Streak in
To-morrow's Struggle,
rAsHYILLE TENN Nov L

NASHVILLE, TENN, Nov. T.
V If we ever expect to break
our losing streak, we might
just as well start on Tennessee to-
morrow" remarked Coach McGugin
after he and the associate coaches
had driven the men through Cruel
i Ing practice until the chapel bell was
tolling 9 p. m. But although the
Vanderbilt pilot is fairly hopeful of
victory over the Volunteers, he isn't
citing up for minute in the terrific
drives to whip the tattered fragments
Of a once powerful machine into d
samblance of a lighting eleven.
After a long tussle with pleurisy,
Assistant Coach Manner is back on
the job and his presence took lot of
work off McGugin, for the former
crack fullback will be of great help
n driving the sluggish backfield
Manner arrived none too soon, for an
other cripple was added to the hos
ptal corps when Morgan Preston,
who has been playing a jam-up game
at end, threw his knee out of joint
while chasing forward passes. But
McGugin has become so accustomed
10 hard luck. that a little thing like
knee out of joint causes him little
worry.
TOM GRAHAM, Dick Hager and
Stein Stone are working wonders
with the inexperienced linesmen and
they are picking up the inside stuff"
in a surprising manner. Warren,
Tom White and even "Pud" Reyer,
who was given up as a hopeless case,
are going about their charging in
surprising neutrality-suspicious. good
tashion-and McGugin is hopeful that
after all they may learn how to box
off the opposing tackles. 1t was the
shaving off tackle plays in the Vir-
gina game which wrecked the Com
mOdore line and permitted the fleet
Virginia backs to clatter through for
long and steady gains. The handling
Of forward passes continues to be
very disappointing to the coaches,
for the only pass which seems ever
TO be successful is that across the
line, which, although less dangerous,
is 50 easily intercepted. But much
is being shown in the
breaking up of these passes and the
inability to intercept passes is Civ
ing McGugin not a little concern,
since in both the Michigan and Viz
ginia games it has been the failure to
spill the forward pass which has
played such havoc with Vanderbilt's
chances for victory. McGugin's chief
concern just now is to perfect his
defense, if such be possible with the
new material on hand and continual
