ami football team into the fray and II
e,aved up the strong eleven from Camr
rpton. The Jersey pigskin gladiatots
r,pped through the Upton contingent like
"a fashioned sons Of Old Nassau. and
pied up a victory by a score OF rs to 4
ne boys from Jungletown did all their
tooring in the first half.
The game was one OF the feature
events OF the big sport drive Of the
United War Work Campaign. and had
n, full quota OF military trimmings and
trappings The Tiger brought back
memories Of the Palmer Stadium and
University Field In the days before the
Kaiser challenged Uncle Sam to throw
his hat into the big ring.
Tigers PROFIT BY FumbIes.
The Tigers were too alert for their SOL
dlsP opponents, despite the fact that
uptons team included veterans OF many
biz football tits Of the past. Tho old
Princeton trick Of snatching up the
ether fellows football and running il
into touchdown was much in evidence.
The game was only two minutes old
whe1 Harvey. the Nassau end, picked up
ball flmbled by Capt. Davis OF the
uptcn outfit and ran forty yards for a
touchdown.
The fourth Princeton touchdown was
scored by We -tein. last year with CO.
lmbia. who recovered a blocked kick
and ran twenty-five yards for a touch
down. The touchdo~ns in between fol-
lowed spectacular Princeton runs by
Murrey and Dempsey.
Charley Brickley did some fancy ex-
hibtlon kicking between halves, kicking
goals from every possible nook and cor
ner Of the Polo Grounds. His speciality,
however. was taking two balls In mid
field and kicking them from placement
for goals IN both directions.
But before the famous Brick put on
Ills show one Of the young men from
Princeton also showed he had quite an
educated toe. 1t was Murray. the
Princeton quarterback. who kicked four
goals from touchdown as clean as
whistle Murray also played a great
game throuehout and was one Of the
stars Of the fray.
Yingling Saves shutout.
Camp Upton came back fighting mad
In the second half and put on one IA
nous squirt. Princeton kicked OF and
Upton never lost possession of the ball
Until Chink Yingling. the old Dodger
and Washington American League
down. After that neither side seriously
threatened, the ball passing forward and
backward without either side getting
anywhere.
The Upton boys were the first to ar
rive. and there were about 1900 OF them,
Including a company OF dusky warriors.
They were led by Capt. Hanna, and
made a pretty sight as they spread
around the field.
The Princeton student cadets fol-
lowed few minutes after the Upton
boys took their seats in the north stand.
The military band, 700 strong, was led
ty Col. Pearson, while the naval units,
With 200 sailors, was commanded by
Admiral Goodrich.
One Of the pretty features OF the game
was the singing. especially by the Upton
outht. whose Il Hate to Get Up In the
horning" made especial appeal to the
crowd. Aviators flew over the field be-
fore the game and during the intermis-
tlon doing stunts" but the expected
sham battle did not materialize.
Camp Upton kicked or to start the
battle and Wlttmer carried the ball back
To his 40 yard line. Opey made n first
down moment later with a smash
through the line. when Upton stiffened
and Lyons punted out OF bounds on
Upton's 10 yard line. One line plunge
failed and on the next play Davis
funbled the ball. Quick as a flash
Harvey picked it up on the first bounce.

The forty yards necessary for a touch
down. Murray cleverly kicked the goal.
