hands. Yale had outplayed Princeton
then and Yale continued TO outplay
Fame for Guernsey.
The second period was about half
gone when Yale got the ball on the
Tigers 19-yard mark.
Suddenly the spectators saw a big
fellow leap from the Y ale bench,
where long line of substitutes were
sitting. Those wise in football ways
caught the significance of the move
at once.
+ 1T is PumpeHy," someone yelled as
the big fellow tossed aside his blanket
and began prancing up and down on
the side lines with that curious string
halt movement that football players
use in warming up when called on to
replace a man on the field at short
It was not Pumpelly, however It
was Guernsey and there was a stir
throughout the Yale tier and general
craning of necks when he limbered up
his stiffened legs.
Guernsey coolly took his place on
the 2S-yard line. He is a mighty bust
ness-lilSe young fellow, this new hero
of the booted ball He went about the
job of kicking as quietly as If he were
only about to peel q peach
When Guernsey received the ball he
let it fall seemingly hstlessly to the
ground As it rebounded once, his toe
hit il a reSOunding smack. High and
far that smash carried and the ball
passed squarely over the Tiger goal
posts though yards above them. The
blue banners rolled over the Yale
sides like a mighty wash of deep sea
water and boom Of voices swept the
field as the followers of OIL Eli ju
bilated.
Bakers Spectacular Boot.
No less spectacular, hOwevr, was
the boot of Hobey Baker in the third
period which put the score even.
Baker had not done much during the
game; in fact he had been quite dis
appointment to his most ardent admir-
ers. Heralded as a marvellous man at
carrying the ball through a broken
field, he had been stopped time and
again before he could even get started
Then at a moment when it was least
expected and when he seemed to be
taking hopeless chance, Baker
dropped the ball to his toe at Yale's
z0-yard line and cracked it across Blue
posts
The spectators Easped in amazement
as the little blonde leader of the Jun
gslars cut loose his leg drive and a
second later even the Yale rOOters had

EW YORK, Nov. 15-The recent
victory of Colgate over Yale
4 has set the statisticians at
work with this result: Yale has taken
part in 375 battles since entering
gridiron warfare in 1872. OF these 555
have been victories, 10 have been ties
and % have been defeats of the %
defeats. Princeton has accomplished
10, Harvard 6, Army 3, Brown 1, Co
lumbia , and Colgate 1.
Princeton has been playing foot
ball since 1859 and during this time
has fought $50 battles. winning 3O4,

vania ., Columbia 1. Lafayette l, Navy

won in 1859 in the first intercollegiate
game of football played in this COun-
try or in England
Harvard football dates from 1874. in
which time the crimsOns have played
$50 games, of which PA were victories,
9 were draws and A defeats The
victories over Harvard are distributed
as follows: Yale %, Princeton IS,

II Yale is to follow the example set
down by one or two of the big uni
Tersities which have suffered defeat
on the gridireH= at the hands of
smaller college. it is possible Colgate
will be eliminated as a yearly Oppon-
nent for the blue team at New Haven.
Harvard found a half hearted excuse
to cut the Dartmouth game when that
team become too strong, and substi-
tuted a contest with an inferior eleven.
Yale, thereon. has the precedent to
follow t is only a question whether
Yale sees things in the light that Har-

n The Yale spirit still lives. The
4 ancient traditions Of Old Eli
have been upheld.
Buffetted about over half the sea
son by the weakIings OF the college
football world and openly derided by
the strong, the gridirOn grapplers of
the Blue fought an old time Yale
fight here this afternoon and held
Princeton to a to tie.
Again the football dope has wan
dered far astray- It was said and gen
orally believed that the Tigers would
crush the Bull Dog with ease Prince
ton men came here with their hands
fun of money and could find few takers
for their liberal odds. 1t was a game
that was counted as a fOregone con-

Sensational Drop Kicks.
out Of the comparative Obscurity Of
the substitute line sprang a youth by
the name of Guernsey with a sensa-
tional drop kick that put Yale in the
way of prospective victory over the
team that held the champion Crimson

Tiger was saved from defeat by a mar
velous boot that carried the ball across
40 yards Of Yale territory by Hobey

Again a wild dash for 80 yards by
AinswOrth. the Yale back. followed by
a driving attack by Wilson and Dunn
against the Tiger line, carried the ball
10 inches from the Princeton goal,
where the Jerseymen stiffened and

Yale Fights All the Way.
Yale took a desperate chance and
launched a forward pass and had the
man on the receiving end held the ball
the Blue would have had a touchdown
and victory That was indeed a mar
row squeeze for the Tiger.
The moment the whistle sounded,
starting the game. it became evident
that Princeton would have no easy
time winning. although that early, few
doubted that she would win. Yale
opened fighting and Yale never
stopped fighting for q moment. It was
not the same team that faced Colgate
and Washington and Jefferson, even
though the same men we're fighting
shoulder to shoulder in the line. It
was a team that was animated by a
new kind Of spirit-it was an outsider
coming from behind. BY the time the
first period was over Princeton real
lied that it had bitter fight on its

After She Was Welded to Francis B. Saye on Tuesday

In her bridal gown Miss Wilson ad
hered to all the traditions of white
satin and point lace, while her long
veil was of tulle held by delicate
wreath of orange blossoms, arranged
closely about her head rather than in
the coronet fashion more usual on &C.
casions of this kind.
The satin of the wedding gown was
of American manufacture, and the
dress had been made from the brides
own design. 1t followed the mode in
regard to the cut of the skirt which
showed a becoming fullness about the
top, merged into plaits at one side.
Here a line of embroidery in small
orange blossom designs extended down
the left side of the skirt, after out
lining the V-shaped neck Of the
bodice. The bodice was of close
fiat model now in vogue, with scant
drapery of point lace to give the broad
ening effect on the shoulders without
any necessary fulness front or back.
The sleeves of satin were half-length,
finished by rather deep fall of point
lace, with the satin edged in the same
embroidery of orange blossoms.
The court train was three yards
long, with square end, and untrim-
med.
The neck of the gown, in addition to
soft folds of malne so delicate as to
be almost invisible, had narrow
edge of point lace, leaving only an
inch or two of the neck exposed. Here
