PRINCETON TO PLAY CHICAGO
ON GRIDIRON IN 1921 AND %

at Yale from 1886 to 1890. When the
proposal was made. less than three
weeks ago, Stage was quick to see
it's advantages. and the authorities
at the University of Chicago soon
gave their approval.
The prime reason that Princeton
advanced for breaking away from
its traditional policy. Mr.. Stage said.
was the thought that there was a ma
tional need to discard sectional feeling
for broader basis.
Mr.. Stage said he felt that the
Princeton-Chicago games would have
their effect in breaking down sec
tional prejudice. He saw, also.
good influence resultant on athletics
in general. He said he thought these
gridiron games would probably be
the forerunner Of other similar inter-
sectional cont9ts.

in the grind. The outrigger of his oar
became disabled on the fourteenth
stroke after the start, but he continued
TO- pull along until. when nearing the
mile mark. his oar finally snapped. Inn
mediately he jumped overheard to re-
lieve his comrades from pulling dead"
weight. But the freshmen were then far
in the rear and were powerless to gain
on the fast-going plebes. Cooper was
picked up by a motor boat that followed
the race. ~
