Football Eleven Showed
Little After Scoring
Ten Points in
Rutgers Game.
BY HERBERT.

Princeton's football eleven must not
be Judged by what il showed in beat
ing Rutgers at Princeton yesterday by
q score of 10 to 0. Tibbott, for the
few minutes that he played, was a
whirlwind. and with the help of flash
of the November brand of interference
made two long and dashing runs. one
for eighty yards and touchdown on
catching a punt and one for thirty
five yards on receiving another punt;
which led up after one little show OF
offensive power on straight rushlng cy
Captain Click to goal from the fe!.d
by drop kick from the toe of this
same Tibbott, when standing on the
twenty-yard line.
Apart from this, Rutgers men can
get such satisfaction as is possible
from the statement that their eleven
was much further advanced and Tar
better equipped for this time OF ne
year than the Tigers.
In nil that goes to make up foo
ball as il is judged, Rutgers had the
stronger team Yesterday. The offence
was more varied, more powerful ano
MORO consecutive. The defence was
equally strong and compact ana yeI
With all this. the team lacked the nee
essary drive TO beat Princeton, even II
Tihbott had not gone through the ht.Ie
formalitv of putting the Tigers on the
