NEW HAVEN. November 1.-THE
Bulldog today chewed the Tiger to
tatters. taking twenty-seven bites
and escaping without a scratch.
This geological paradox was enact
ed in the Yale bowl with some eighty
thousand spectators massed for the
fiftieth anniversary of the first foot
ball game ever played between Yale
and Princeton. the longest series ex-

ball
The tenacious bulldog pursued the
jungle beast up and down the field
from start to finish. but the Tiger
did not take it tamely. Three times
it turned and fought back savagely,
but never once was 1t able to carry
the ball closer to the Yale goal than
the 24-yard line. 1t was a game
team. but from the very first few
minutes of play 1T was evident that
it also was a beaten one.
The hard-hitting Yale eleven. un-
defeated this season. took the upper
hand soon after the first whistle and
scored on the Orange and Black in
every period. Its total of 81 points
was the greatest margin of victory
ever obtained in Its fifty-year-old
feud with Princeton. except that

Pond Scores First.
Yale first crossed the Tiger goal,

was the only thing outside of straight
foot ball that the Blue displayed to
any visiting scouts from Harvard
gazing with interested eye on to-
days play. Capt. Mallory kicked an
other point after this touchdown, and
in the second period sent two drop
kicks whistling over the Princeton
goal posts.

1t was frenzied Tiger that faced
Yale today. Defeated by Notre Dame
and Harvard, with everything to win
and nothing to lose, the sons of Old
Nassau opened their entire bag Of
tricks. But they weren't tricky
enough and they had no offensive
sufficient to make more than few
spasmodic gains against the Blue.
The Tiger eleven was outclassed, out.
unanswered and outguessed at nearly
every stage of the game.
Princeton Courageous.
But Princeton courage was not
lacking, fact amply shown in the
first quarter, when the Tigers twice
held the Blue inches from the goal
line before Pond finally plunged over
on the fourth down..
Princeton took daring chances with
the forward pass, but Yale, after
having demonstrated with her single
toss of the day that she also knew
something of aerial play. proceeded
to turn the Tigers passes to her own
account. Four times she intercepted
them and on one occasion followed
with series of line thrusts and end
runs that resulted in a touchdown.
Indeed, Yale didn't lose a chance to
score-unless 1t be reckoned that she
missed a few points toward the end
of the, game by sending in virtually
