Princetons line. This opened up a gap
that earned Harvard some half a dozen
yards.
There was little in the way of brilliant
plays on attack, owing to the condition
Of the field. Each quarter ran his team
well and got all that he could out OF his
eleven. Click proved his worth in his
new berth. and added strength to the
Tiger team by reason of his added
weight, when compared to Stew Baker,
who formerly ran the eleven, and, | am
glad to say, got into the game at end.
In individual play Brickley and Mahan
we're decidedly the best Of the backheld
men. and STREET. proved the hardest line
plunger on the field. He was unfortu-
nateiy crippled early in the game, which
initiated against his defensive work, SO
that Princeton sent a chesty brother OF
its centre rush to his relief when Harvard
threatened, as it die several times. This
was all for the best, as the stockily built
Trenkman proved a real Kansas cyclone
in stirring up everything along his line,
even getting excellent results out Of his
centre trio that did much TO hold the ag-
gressive and oncoming Harvard backs.
Hardwick was not up TO his standard,
even in the matter of making interfer-
ence. at which he has been Of so great
value. while Bradlee proved demon on
secondary defence. meeting the Tiger
plays we'll up on the line and occasionally
nipping them behind their line of scrm-
mage. Logan was cool and reliable
quarter who handled the ball quite clean
~ under the conditions. In the line Har-
ward had slightly the better of the end
play, but the advantage was slight, and
where most apparent, in covering punts,
was offset by the wonderful work OF phil
lips. and especially BALM, the Tiger
tackles.
The three centre men were fighting an
even battle. with the exception Of Pennock'
the Crimson right guard. who was ex-
tremely aggressive. Soucy had bit the
better of Trenkman, at centre, In passing
and in covering punts. At the tackle po-
sitions there was different story to tell
because of the work of BALM at right
tackle.
Seldom does one have the pleasure OF
witnessing such magnificent football as
this Princetonian played to-day. He was
q fitting successor of such great Princeton
tackles as "Biffy" Lea, H1debrand ana
the more recent Eddie Hart, who has UNI
doubtedly had much to do with the great
change in the Princeton eleven during the
last two weeks, and / doubt much III any
Of them have played better football than
did this youth to-day. Defensively his
rosition was impregnable. and his posi-
lion was at the point OF attack, for the
Tiqer coaches shifted him TO the long and
e,roro side Of the Harvard offensive for

saw Rallin break through all OF Har-
Yards interference when a play was sent
from a running formation toward one OF
those exnosed Princeton tanks and bring
down Mahan and Hardwick with crash

thelline on the opposite side or centre 1

Harvard backs when they received pun's'

made his long run, when he was cleareU
of all tacklers and score seemed Ger

Then there was a time In the first nan
when Princeton was attacking Harvard
line with much success. AT the head OF
the attack was Balm. removing such
Crimson men as were in that neighDor-
hood. Here is a player of players here

larly keen feelings about color schemes
will not care much about my compliment

Captain Baker of Princeton was unfor-
tunate in again having to combat SLIP

himself one of the best backs playing
