TIGERS MAY REALIZE
44-YEAR-OLD DREAM

A FORTY FOUR YEAR dream of n

your history rating is minus-the Tigers
won the collegiate classic in the wear of
its inauguration. After that the Bengal
sat back on the bench and dozed while
the long parade of champions marched
through the years.
This year the Tiger Is awake and
moving with the swiftness of n Panther
toward the championship. There arc
others in the race. to be sure-PeAnsyl- :
vania, Dartmouth and Cornell all are
running neck and neck several PAGES in
front of the rest of the pack--but the
Bengal. according to the early dope. is
leading by whisper.
II looks as IL the Cornell spell which
has dominated the field since 1919 is
about to be broken. The Moakley men
cannot be counted out of the running by
any means. but the prospects of the

But to get back to the Tigers.
Princeton s strength is not concentrated
in any one group of events. The Orange
and Black is figured for points in ali
except four of the thirteen events. A
miller, a pole vaulter, broad jumper
and high jumper are lacking.
To make up for where they are

full in the sprints, the two mile, the
hurdles and the shot and hammer.
