ExaIting the Lowry soph.

The absence OF stars and what the
coaches called seasoned material seems
to have worked hand in hand with des-
tiny. Consider this young man Beattie.
the young giant from New York. He
lie. or was. mere second string man
and worse than that, he was only a
sophomore.
Your correspondent was given some
notion of just how insignificant a
sophomore Is. He was walking TO Pal
mer Stadium with one of them. The
correspondent started to take a direct
route, whereupon the sophomore paused
and said;
eff you please, sir. I am not per-
mitted to walk on that street. 1 am
only sophomore"
Therefore. your correspondent was
forced to take the indirect route TO the
cate. From the tone the young man
used he. felt that It must be sad
thing to be mere sophomore at Prince
ton. He was a very soft spoken and
subdued young man. And because OF IL
your correspondent was pleased that 1t
was a young man from this down-trod-
den and despised class than really won
Princeton's game for it. If it had not
been for that rush OF an infuriated
sophomore the struggle would have re-
suited in a scoreless tie.
Far be II from your correspondent. an
outsider. to suggest that some recogni-
ton of Beattie's class Is due. Still he
feels that to commemorate the 81 yard
run that wrote football history on a
mist covered turf this afternoon the au-
thorities might give the sophomores OF
this year the freedom of all the streets
so long as they do not abuse this great

mendous dropkick half the length of

Princeton brought the ball out and put
il down on the 20 yard line.
Only a few seconds now repained of
the game. Four line attacks failed to
gain a foot. A single down remained to
Princeton. Cleaves fell back to his l
yard line. He knew that only half
dozen seconds remained to play. He
knew that there was a remote possibility
that in these six seconds he might punt
the ball UP the field to be caught by
Yale and run back for a touchdown and
a defeat for Princeton.
Coolly crafty and craftily cool ne re-
ceived the ball. but instead OF punting
ran TO the right. If his strategem failed
to prevent Yale from obtaining the ball
on punt, failed to exhaust the time.
Yale still would have an opportunity to
score. Maintaining his fight however.

O'Hearn Misses Field Goal.

There. on the fourth down O'Hearn
dropped back to try for field goal
From that d'stance IL seemed almost
certain that he would make 1t. But
q earn is still stiff from the old bruises
and had become chilled sitting along the
side lines waiting for his chance. Then
perhaps the realization of how much de-
pended on that kick hampered him.
The ball went wide and the Princeton
stands, which had become suddenly
glum and silent. came to life again.
After an exchange of kicks O'Hearn
tr. for another field goal from the
Yale 4s yard line. This time the ball had
the direction but not the carrying power.
II dropped between the posts but under
the bar behind the Yale goal line. The
last attempt was made by O'Hearn from
the 45 yard line. By this time the
shadows had deepened so that the play
ers looked like struggling wraiths in a
slate colored mist. Nothing remained
for Princeton TO do but TO hold the ball
until the whistle blew.
Here the Princetonians watched the
gathering shadows and made three de-
liberate plays. These were initiated from
a kick formation. but the Tigers had no
intention Of letting Yale get the ball.
Sometimes a team given the ball In those
ast few seconds may develop miracles.
IL has been done by Yale and Princeton
teams, too. In the past. Finally Thom-
son was dropped by two charging yale

whistle blew and the Orange and Black
swirled down into the bottom of this
unfinished bowl.
Impatiently Big Bill Edwards dropped
his pen and descended with much agility
to Join the throng and add dignity as
well as grace TO the Princeton snake
dance which was forming. The signal
was flashed 20 the chapel, and the bell
which was rung for three days at
Princeton after the continental army
won this town from the British began to
peal. IL is still peallng. My colleague,
Mr.. Parke Davis, says that the pealing
may brea.. the record for endurance.
Certainly there is something for
Princeton TO celebrate this year. The

Old grads OF all vntages we're lugubri-
GUS Bill Roper uttered few soft
means over the paucity OF material and
there was a move on foot TO drop the
orange from the Princeton colors as
sign OF deep mourning.
There were no stars. Just a football
saund fired with the desire TO do some
thing to add TO the glory OF Old Nassau.
And somehow nobody seemed able to
stop this team. You cannot say that
IL was because the Princeton schedule
was picked with view Of feeding the
Tiger Cubs tender meat. Remember that
Chicago was In that schedule and that
the young Tigers clawed that team
apart in one Of the most melodramatic
games that has been staged this season
or anv other season. Sometimes these
teams are the better for having no stars
or for letting the stars do their own de-

call which had taken It abruptly away
from the Princeton football squad.
On came the sweep of Blue driving
back the sullen young Tiger Cubs. They
were crying touchdown - from the
Yale stands. and there were indications
that the cry might be answered Big
Bill Edwards bit his pencil In half and
tossed the pieces into the bottom of the
bowl Outside a crowd of Princeton
adherents, who were getting the re-
turns from a student with a megaphone,
craned their necks upward.
The last down and Jordan was to take
the ball over for just one yard. There
was no need for. Neidlinger to call this
signal. Jordan knew that he must take
the ball. Every watcher in the Stands
knew that this would be the play and
the majority of them felt that this drive
would go right through 10 its objective.
a Yale touchdown that might end in
the first defeat of Princeton's fated
team.
There will be second guessing over
this play, OF course There will be the
grumblers who will say that another
maneuver might have succeeded. But
remember Just one yard was needed and
Jordan with Nea1e had plunged the ball
into this position. 1t seemed certain
that it must go over.
The Tiger line seemed still to be
quivering from the force OF the Yale at
tack. II had given way half a dozen
times in succession. But this time it
braced for that last stand. And by de-
cree Of destiny stanch pine post cut
in the Jersey hills and planted In the
Jersey earth, became part OF the Prince
ton line Of defense. Jordan drove for
ward fiercely pressing aside the Prince
ton center guard. but he could not
break that stanch bit of Jersey pine
which the rolliching destiny OF the
Princeton team had planted there.

As Yale had electrified the great null
titude of 5000 by a slashing drive at
the outset OF the first half, so Princeton
brought the great stadium TO It's feet by
tremendous onslaught which won the
game in the first eleven plays of the
second half.

Desperation VS.. Ferocity.

The slate colored mists deepened
quickly IL that last quarter as the Yale
men began to fight desperately. They
were not fighting hlindly. either. They
were directing their attack cannily and
making the most of their power but the
Tiger Cubs met them with an increased
ferocity. At times they would seem to
tear the Blue line of attack apart.
Shortly after the period started came
Yalo's chance to tie tho score. The
Yale march brought the ball up to
within the Princeton thirteen yard line.
All this time Charlie O'Hcarn, the Yale
back who was kept out of this game be-
cause Of his injuries, was running up
and down the side lines. He was warm
ing up. as they say. This Is the basis
of the favorite plot for the writer of
football fiction. The men on the side
lines come in at the psychological
moment and save their team.

and the greater weight by few pounds
per man. Yale's powerful rushes were
turned back when they threatened the
Princeton goal line. Sometimes they
were hurled back by counter charges OF
Tiger cubs. sometimes they seemed
pressed back by invisible forces. The
most effective blocking of the Yale rush,
however, was a goal post planted in the
path of a Yale charge by destiny that
seemed predisposed in favor Of the
young men from Old Nassau.
Destiny might claim impartiality be-
cause of what happened in the second
quarter. Toward the end of that period
Princeton had worked the ball to the
Yale % yard line. Here Ken Smith
dropped back to try FOR a drop kick from
the 80 yard line. The try was made at
the same goal where Jordans desperate
plunge had been stopped by the heavy
wooden beam. The ball started to clear
the bar, but, carried by a strong south
wind, It went wide as 1t neared its mark
and glanced Off the post opposite the
enc into which Jordan had crashed. 1t
rolled outside. AS the referee waved
his arm to signal a failure the shout of
triumph that rose on the Princeton side
of the field died quickly to a whisper
BY this time it was quite apparent
that the opinion that the ale team was
far the superior of the princeton team
was decidedly unwarranted. 1t was a
good team. that Yale, team, beautifully
drilled with a fine attack and fine
defense. It's apparent power was well
directed and its attack was shifted IN
te.ligently. 1t was not like one OF those
Ya.e teams that used 10 charge blindly
with head down as Yale teams have
done In the past Given that material
all over again and the game to be
played again the young bull dogs could
have done no better than they did yes
terday. Which again would tend to
back my contention that this Princeton
team of 1922 is a great football team,
greater than 1t has been given credit
for before

Yale won the toss and chose the
south goal. Princeton kicked off. SO
swiftly did the Princeton forwards cover
the ball that there was no run back.
Yale Immediately kicked, returning the
ball to midfield. Here Princeton FUN
