Mr.. Farnum gives portrayal that

man Is shown in all his revengeful
feeling against the world that caused
him to serve nineteen years at hard
labor for stealing a loaf of bread for
his starving relatives. And the softer
side. when he, having changed hts
name and become wealthy, is lending
a helping hand to every one around
him. Then, too, the wonderful spirit
that makes him renounce the few joys
he has had in life is shown In remar-

Philadelphia just as he did here
against the Presidents. He got his
chance when DeHart left the field and
got away to several material gains with
the ball while the w. and J. tacklers
were paying attention to Tom Davies.
Many spectators wondered why Davies
did not come across with those spec
tacular zigzag turns of his.
OF course, the triple pass was the
best ground gamer. and it is likely that
Bob Folwell has all that doped out ana

one of the many interesting features
~ that is sure TO develop in the
Princeton Yale game at New Haven
Saturday is the battle that will be- wagcd
between Quarterback Kcmpton. of the
Plue ard the Tigers two ends. Al
though Roper has not definitely decided
whether he will USE Shad Davis or
Bigler, it is certain that Williams will
be on one wing. No matter whether
Davis or Riglcr is picked for the other.
Kempton will find that he is up against
his toughest proposition of the year in
returning puuts.
Racing back with the kicks has been
ono of the big ground gaining plays OF
tnc Yale team in AL her games this
season. and the Bulldog is dcpcndin"
upon Kempton to continue his good
work against Princeton. But if the
Princeton ends play the same calibcr OF
football Saturday that they played
p"niaSt Harvard not even the superb
efforts of Kcmpton will yield results.
Incidently there is every reason to be-
licvc that the Tiger ends will be in even
better form in the Yale game than they
were in the Harvard tilt.
Yale. like Harvard. will have the
advantage of weight in the game with
Ropcr's men. Princeton will go into
the New Haven fray averaging IFS,
while Yale will be three pounds heavier
to the man. That is small advantage,
but it helps some. lalc's team is much
better balanced in avoirdupoiS than llar
ward was. The Blues backs average
1GS against 164 for Princeton. All
things being equal. Nale would have a
little more driving power than Princeton
In the attack, but all things. as usual.
are not equal. There ism man in the
backfeld at New Haven who has shown
up as well as Maury Trimblc has in all
his games this year. and in spite of the
fact that Kempton is touted as Won
derful quarterback, he will meet his
nntch IN Jack Strubing. who. once
upon time, played with the Episcopal
gridron battlers of Philadelphia.
Wilmer and Garrity should do as well
as Bradcn and Campbell. This gives
Princeton the edge on the offense and
although the edge is rather keen, tha,
difference is likely to represent the diff
ference between the scores made by the
combating teams when the final whistle

depend, to n large degree. upon her air
attack against Yale. There was some
adverse criticism of the Tigers tossing
and receiving ability last Saturday.
Either these critics did not see the game
or they do not know good aerial Of
fense when they see it.
Trimble is n fine passer. and Strubing
is remarkable receiver. 1t is true that
the majority of Prncetou's forward
passes are short but instead of losing
power by this. they gain. The Tigers
passes increase in certainty in proper
ton to their shortncss. Many teams
have more spectacular air plays than
Princeton, but few have complete as
great a percentage.
