For First Time Since 1896 Two All-American Players
Will Meet Face to Face In Yale and Princeton Game

New York, Nov. ga precedent
of eighteen years standing will be
broken at Princeton on November IA,
when Captain Talbot of Yale lines up
face to face against Captain BALM of
the orange and black. 1t will be the
American men have played directly
opposite each other.
Since 1895 there have been a num-
Der of cases Of stars colliding in line
play and then being selected for the
All-American team Of their year.
But only once since All-American
teams have been picked by Walter
Camp nave w men me in personal
encounter at the time they bore ALL
American tags. This memorable
clash. in 1896, was between two Won
derful ends, Cabot of Harvard and
Colbert of Pennsylvania. And the
game was one that will live long in
the memory Of all who saw it. On
the Pennsylvania team were such
famous players as Wharton and
Woodruff, both Of whom are ranked
among the greatest guards of all
time, just barely under the grade of
the wonderful Heffelhnger of Yale.
Camp picked both of them for his
hypothetical champion eleven of the
season, n rare honor. for only once
OF twice since then has any college
provided both the right and the left
side of the All-American line with
players of the same position.
Cabot shared the stardom of the
Harvard team with Wrightington, a
h~alfback, whose name will never be
forgotten by the veteran followers of
the game. The battle of these teams
was about as furious as q conflict on
the gridiron can be. and through it
all stood out the struggle Of the two
great ends. Cabot held his own on
the whole with Colbert. and even pos
