Dershins XII Is round and fat, and
the approach to the badgers de-

noon for the second time in as many
wears. The final score Of the game as
1G 10 7. The defeat came as a tremen-
dous disappointment TO the, Yale sup
porters.
The Pennsylvanians outplayed Yale
AT every stage Of the game. Their SIX
teen points, made by goal from the
field. two touchdowns and goal from
touchdown, were all earned. The single
touchdown for Yale was scored by
Scovil. who recovered on the W and j..
ten-yard line. and ran over the line for
the lone Blue count. Only this hap
pening saved Yale from being held
scoreless, an expectation which bace
fair to be realized until the final MN
utes Of play.
Washington and jefferson came to
New Haven confident of their ability 70
win. They backed their opinions with
several thousand dollars in real money,
which Yale supporters accepted, giving
varying odds on Yale 70 win.
To-day's game saw open football pit

PRINCETON SOCCER
TEAM STARTS WELL
Scores | TO 0 Victory Over the
Cornell Eleven.

Princeton, ". j.. Oct. 23.-Princeton
opened the intercollegiate soccer sea-
son with a 70 0 victory over Cornell
this afternoon. The game was not as
close, however, as the score would In
dictate. The Tigers kept the ball in
Cornell's territory nearly all the first
half, and in the second half they were
on the offensive all the time. The vigi-
lance of Roth, the Cornell goal keeper.
kept the score down. Princeton's only
point came after pretty pass from
Ross TO Bird, who booted the ball into
the net.
Princeton's defence was unusually
strong and their goal was never threat
ened. Their pass work was good. and
when they learn 70 shoot they should
present formidable team. The full
backs OF both teams played well.
Fowler and Bird, for Princeton, were
the stars of the game.
