YALE AND PRINCETON
 HOLD ANNUAL MEET
Track Sports and Baseball Gamc Held at New Haven By Oppos-
 ing Colleges Eli the Favorite

New Haven, Conn.,. May 9.-Under fair skies and on a fast track and field Yale and Princeton met in their annual games, on Yale field today. The varsity ball nine met University of Pennsylvania when the games were over and at the same time the freshman ball tossers of these two universities met on the freshman dia- mond.
 In the track games this was the thirteenth time that the Blue and Orange and Black have met. Only once has Princeton been returned a winner, although two years ago it held Yale to a tie in points. The Princeton victory Was in 1911. For the past five years the element of un- certainty as to the outcome has sti1n- ulated interest in the dual games and directed attention to Princeton's de- velopment in this branch of sport. Yale has always feared the Princeton sprinters and her own advantage has been in the field events.
 Yale entered the games today a decided favorite. Princeton had few of last years point winners while Yale's veterans have kept true to their records. The uncovering or point winning material among the new men meant much to both teams. The program was made up of eight track and five field events.

TO REPAIR FRACTURE
Doctors Perform Heroic Opera.
ton on Patient Entirely
Paralyzed.

An operation on the spine. which the
doctors at North Hudson Hospital say is
one OF the most remarkable ever per-
formed. may result IN the recovery OF
Godfrey kruse Of Union Hill. n patient,
who was taken to the hospital entirely
paralyzed from fracture OF vertebra.
kruse has been in the hospital since
January % with a shattered section OF the
nth dorsal vertebra. His helpless con-
dition moved DIR. Joseph Rector Of Jer-
sey City to undertake the heroic opera
ton.
Wednesday afternoon Kruse was taken
to the operating room Because OF total
paralysis he was kept In a state OF
partial an,esthesia and while the opera
ton was In progress hts eyes were open.
The incision began at the NTH cervical
ver.ebra. The bony covering of the
spinal cord was removed on the sixth.
seventh and eighth cervlcal vertebre and
from the first and second dorsal verte-
bra.
The third and fourth dorsal vertebra
were not disturbed. leaving a bridge OF
bone between the upper incision and a
second incision which began at the fifth
! do sal vertebra. This latter ver;ebra was
the one which was fractured and accord
ingly the posterior half was removed al
together In medical language the first
or upper incision Is called osteoplastic
resect!on and the second incision Is called
laminectomy. In the FIRST the bone Is re-
placed and In the second It is not.
DR.. Rector when he had exposed the
cord lifted II slightly and bathed IL with
a saline solution. Three blood clots which
| were found In the spinal canal were re-
moved. Then Dr. Rector wired the sec.
lions Of the spine together and with two
other physicians. Drs. Geibach and Hell.
stern. sewed up the whole incis!on. Fifty.
two stitches were taken. k'use was laid
| in a plaster cast and removed to his bed.
kruse's condition last night was favor
able. He had made slight gain inasmucf
as he had more sensation in his lower
limbs and was able to move his lower
limbs slightly.
DIR. Rector said last night that In spit,
Of this apparent Improvement nothing
definite could be said regarding his re-
rovery for two or three days. When asked
whether II would be possible for Krus'
to walk again Dr. SeFwitz. the hous,
physician. said that such an event wal
