The curtain rose on the annual football
/ classic between Yale and Princeton to-
| day with every one of the 26 entrances
| to the spacious stadium feeling the
strain of lines of ardent fans since noon.
/ In an almost cloudless sky. the sun
shines down 1t makes conditions ideal
for the spectators, but a trihe too warm
! for the armored players. The breeze is
too light to interfere with the kickers
I of either side.
YALE Is CONFIDENT.
Although Princeton men feel that the
chances of the Orange and Black team
are slight, that could never be detected
In the cheers and songs of encoura cement
bursting on the air. The famous loco
motive yell rises vigorously and in it a
note of challenge is sent forth
1--WE have a team that can't be beat"
one of the favOrite songs, is defiant but
the Yale cohorts do not allow Princetons
army TO monopolize the cheering and sing
ing. Their struggle for vocal supremacy
is worth the price OF admission
Princeton smarts under the defeat ada
mlnistered alast week by Harvard. Her
supporters know that their fond hopes
for championship team were shattered.
Yale's aggregation, almost half a hum
dred strong, dashed from the dugout
at 1:45.
They were prevented from beginning
immediate practice by the parade of the
Princeton students across the field. It
required minutes for the procession to
pass.
Then the Blue players threw around
forward passes galore and attempted drop
kicks and punts.
1t was estimated that the crowd num- |
bered 1850.
The stands in the $500 900 stadium were |
frelghted with wildly enthusiastic folk. |
Every seat was filled, when the referees |
whistle sent the gladlators into action.
A panoramic view of the stadium showed |
a forest of pennants and streamers. The |
thousands of pretty girls in their Won
derful and multicolored garments defed

The Bulldog eleven loomped up as
giants alongside the Tigers. Yale out
weighed Princeton a trifie more than 10
pounds to mana bulky edge" but
one which did not seem to disturb Prince
ton. Princeton, twas said. planned to
give itself almost exclusively TO an ex-
hibition of the new style game, against
which, 1t was figured, the bulk of Yale
would be at a disadvantage.
