Ex Braden, Star
Football Player,
F0rsakes Yale
From . Specsal Co,re,eerd.,,.

From Special Correspondent
NEW HAVEN, Feb. 27.--Yale has
lost Jim Braden, the drop-kick-
ing, plunging fullback whose deft
too was responsible for the only
points which Yale registered In her
important games tho past season
and for tho fifty-seven yard field
goal against Harvard, which was a
record in distance for a drop kick
during 1919.
Braden has left college to 20 into
business with q steel manufacturing
concern, instead Of waiting until
June to complete his course in the
Sheffield Scientific School. He will
receive q war degree, as he was In
the artillery service a year on the
Western front, obtained a captains
commission and was cited for con-
spicuous bravery under fire.
Braden's departure from Yale
was caused directly by severe in
juries received during the last foot
ball season. In the Yale-Princeton
game his nose was broken and two
ribs were either severely wrenched
or dislocated. Yet he insisted on
entering the Yale Harvard game the
following Saturday, and, with one
other exception, was the only Yale
player to remain throughout the
match.
