Princeton, N. j., Nov. 20.-Another
hero was added to the long list OF
Princeton's gridiron stars when Ken
meth Smith. the Tigers. right end,
drop kicked a field goal in the third
period against Yale here Saturday
and won the annual in~ter-varsity
classic for the Orange and Black 3
to o.
Smiths name will 60 down in
P%rinceton's history with those Of the
famous Poee, Sam White and others,
who with sterling gridiron deeds have
scored winning points for their alma
mater.
The Newark man, scarcely out OF
his teens, standing on Yale's Is yard
line, calmly lifted the ball over the
goal bar and this feat, not particul-
larly impressive at the tine, spelled
victory.
IL, Yale Stops Progress.
Following an exchange Of 'punts,
Princeton had received the ball near
midfeld. A forward pass thrown by
Cleaves and caught by Treat gained
II yards. Cleaves then sprinted
through Yale's left wing for seven
yards. Beattie. substituting at left
halfback for Crum, dashed around
Yale's right end to the Ellis 13 yard
line. Caldwell gained four yards on
a triple pass and here P%rinceton's Of
Tense was checked. After two at
tempts to gain, Smith signalled a drop
kick. He calmly dropped the ball to
the ground and booted it on the re-
bound neatly Over the bar for a field
goal.
The feat rounded out and COM
pleted one OF the most remarkable
seasons in the history of the Tigers
gridiron %elevens. 1t added a triumph
over Yale, Princeton's Oldest and
dearest rival as the climax to n fall of
football play in which both the Uni
versity of Chicago and Harvard bowed
bination.
Evenly Matched.
The teams appeared more or less
evenly matched and each seemed to
lack the finishing punch to put over
scores when opportunities offered.
Almost. Immediately after the kick Off
Yale rushed the ball to a shadow Of
Princeton's goal post. where with
Captain Jordan carrying the ball, it
appeared as though nothing could
stop the Blue.
Princeton rose to the emergency on
the fourth down with the ball on the
Tigers one yard mark. Captain Jor-
dan flung the whcse power and weight
of his 2O0-pound frame into the
punched Princeton eleven. For .

waver and slip backward then Jordan
was stopped dead in his forward lunge
and his momentum directed upward
SO that he appeared to pop out OF the
mass Of struggling players. That was
as far as he got. It was Princeton's
ball on downs.
LAnemen Star.
Outstanding In Princeton's defen-
sive play was the brilliant work of
Tackles Treat and Baker, Captain
Dickinson at guard and Gray at end.
Treat especially shone on the defen-
sive, seevral times breaking through
the Yale line to throw the runners for
big losses.
Failure to- sustain its running at
tack cost Yale its golden opportunity
in the first period. This lack OF
punch also was sadly lacking in the
second half when the Blue had at
least two good chances to score.
Greatest Throng.
The teams played before the largest
throng Of spectators that yer wit.
messed a game in the Tigers gridiror
arena. More than $4,000 spectators
were present. when the two elevens
took the field. The sky was overcast
but the turf was dry and fast.
Neither team could score in the frs
period, although after Princeton hat
kicked off Yale threatened the Tigers
goal, placing the ball on Princeton!
tried to buck across, but Princeton
held and took the ball on downs
inches away from the line. Prince
ton kicked and on subsequent play
Yale lost so much ground that it wa
forced to punt. After an exchange o
punts. Yale started another march TO
Princeton's goal and had the ball OF
their opponents 80 yard line when tn
period ended.
AS the second period ended Yal
had the ball OF Princeton's IS var
line after a run Of 80 yards by Cap
tain Jordan. Cleaves caught tn,
Yale leader al he appeared certain t,
score a touchdown. i
Scored In Third Period.
Yale kicked off at the beginning o
the third period and on the first line
up Cleaves OF Princeton threw a for
ward pass to Treat which gained 3
yards and out the ball in midfeld.
Cleavesa circled end for even yard
and then made a run Of 80 yards
Smith made a dropkick from the II
yard line, making the score: Prince
