FIELD GOAL COMES SOON.
Beattie tried the line. Nothing
stirring. Caldwell sought to do
business with the right end after
a double pass from German and
Cleaves. Two yards only. Cleaves
essayed a dash around left end for
purposes of strategy which called
for Princeton to get the ball in
front of the goal posts.
This done. the team lined up and

Between. its own 2o-yard line and
Princeton's 35-yard line, Yale was

shreds. 1t had an irresistible run

inept. impotent. almost foolish In
its attempts to advance the ball.
Yale Looked Good.

But il was like a great. shaggy
buffalo, beseiged and beset by a

struggle from the standpoint of
finesse and strategy, for Yale had

and its expected show Of modern
football methods failed to material

as to exhume that extinct weapon
known as the lateral pass. the
collapse of which gave Princeton
a victory several years ago.
The Bull Dog. however. did not
lack for opportunity. Indeed. the
game was less than five minutes
under way when Deaver recovered
a tumble by Cleaves on Princeton's
| 35-yard line, and a few moments
later Yale was knocking at the
front door of an impending touch
down.
The ball was on the 1-yard line
with another down to go when
Jordan was thrust into the center
OF the line without gain and fale's
big moment was gone beyond re-
call.

Neidlinger, tried his luck at drop
