Princeton stands a better chance to take advantage of whatever opportunitS e+hadfcs, ofdscs Hsr than yard quartette of backs. Recovering fumbles for touchdowns and making sensational runs-in short, doing the unexpected-is a Princeton tradition Some of these things could happen today
 As compared to the Crimson the team from Princeton stacks up very favorably. though it must be admitted that while Harvard has revealed no one player who has dominated the work of the team. the big Crimson | machine has gone along with the | smooth working precision of a steam ! a chance to get tired. Harvard scored stronger than that of the Tigers and her backflcid more rugged on straight offensive playing.

 against Centre College. l., the first 1 quarter before Centres iiIiesman had
