Handkerchiefs Defied Law,
This pretty custom is not new, but
proved quite rs effective as in other
Years. The waving of crimson and
white hsndkerchiefs furnished the IL
lusion and aroused applause that was
as spontaneous as Il was hearty.
The cheer leaders worked as hard as
usual so the songs and cheers thun-

period was well under way. By
that time everybody, except few opti-

Having disposed OF the weather,
which always commands little space,
one can get back 10 the game with
feeling that the asides have all been
taken care Of and are safely out of
the way. Some incident is sure to be
forgotten, some fact perhaps Of inter-

ted, but the weather, never.
in few words, the game for those
VINO do not want TO plod through the
details so narrowing TO Princeton men
may be described as follows:
Poor punt.ng and q costly tumble led
up % Harvard's first score. Mahan's

after the nrst period opened, but

2l-yard line, kicked only seant twenty

FIST .treg points. He did IL so easily

slo-e than the clever performance.
Tigers Fight Furiously.
~ the second period, on the fourth
play in fact. Mahan missed another
goa from the 35-yard line, bat three
o. four minutes later Harvard took
the ball on Princeton's 35-yard line
and rushed it thirty yards IN nine
plays. The Tigers fought furiously
Wien backed up against their own goal
posts, and beating back Harvard.s as
sault forced Logan TO call on Mahan
once more, and this time he dropped
On easy goal when standing on the To-
yard line.
This seemed TO whet the appetite Of
the Crimson eleven, and when Francke
ian the ball back twenty-five yards
from the kickoff by briggs, Harvard
began a march which carried the ball
by powerful running attack from Its
own 37-yard line for touchdown, DIS
lance Of sixty-three yards. Logan began
with q 15-yard dash around Prince
tons right end, while Bradlee and
Frsncke, mostly Bradlee, kept II up
with sharp thrusts, first on one side OF
the line and then on the other until the
courtyard line was reached.
The Princeton forwards, reduced by

charges. although they fought tooth
and nal and forced Bradlee TO hurl
himself three times against the line
ioy yard at a time before he finally
crashed over TO the left. Bradlee went
over on the strong side by the mere
force Of the charge. Hardwick kicked
he goal and the score read IL TO U:
The second touchdown and the last
o. the twenty points came on the hrst
play in the fourth period, but the work
;or this was all done at the end OF the
third. The Tigers had had their one
thance, and Tibbott failed IN try at
goal from the 4O-yard line before Har-
yard took the game into its own hsnds
once more.
With the ball in the middle Of the
led the Crimson launched another
Sarlwind attack, which slowly but
none the less surely drove the ball deep
INTO Princeton territory. When the
