n RINCETON, N. j., Oct. 25.-
There were presented In the
soggy little city this afternoon
two notable aquatic events. One was
boat race between Princeton and
Yale and the other was the annual
football game between Princeton and
Dartmouth, which also took place on
water. 1t was won by Dartmouth, a
most uncommon proceeding, for
as an amphibious institution.
as an Ambitious institution.
The final score, and we are speak
ing OF football game, was 6 to 0. This
is intended to deal mainly with the
strange struggle staged on the
Princeton gridiron when a large CO.
terie of strong young men slashed
around in paddles OF mud and water
like infant buffalo in a favorite wal
low, until certain Issues on which
they had differed had been settled.
Football on Sea Of Mud.
Reader, If you have never seen a
football game on a sea Of mud you
have something left to see. rain
that began driving across the Jersey
lowlands to-day was q steady drizzle
when the game began at 2 o'clock
this afternoon, and it continued
throughout the first half of the game,
which saw the triumph Of Dartmouth
over Princeton for the first time in
some years.
Speaking briefly Of the football
game we shall begin with that point
in the third period when young Mr..
Beers, of Hanover, N. H., blocked a
kick propelled from the muddy toe
of Mr.. Giles, of Princeton, N J..
Dartmouth Secures Ball.
%
functory exchange of punts up and
down the dismal field without mate
rial advantage to either side, although
the Princetonians seemed to know the
softest spots in the mud and fell
thereon whenever possible. The ball
became the temporary property of
Dartmouth on Princeton's 25-yard
line, and Dartmouth then made first
down at the 15-yard line and second
down at the 6yard line. At least,
that's what man told us, though we
would never have suspected 1t our
selves. With the ball on the 5-yard
line as stated. Mr.. Whitney, of Dart
mouth, and one of the brightest stars
of the afternoon as we'll as one of
the muddiest, piowed his way through
the slush to approximately the 1-yard
line.
Llewellyn Makes Touchdown.
Dartmouth delegated its young Mr..
Llewellyn to take the ball and dash
around the Princeton left end. Young
Mr.. Llewellyn tucked the ball against
his ribs and galloped across the
Princeton line, his cleats casting back
clots of mud and quarts Of water.
Hoggsett missed a try for goal
and that's about all there was to the
game, except that the boys changed
clothes between halves and got their
other suits all muddied up, too.
Princeton should have scored several
times, but the slippery ball would
not stick to the claws of the Tiger,
which is quite a -simile ono way and
another.
