BALTIMORE, October l7.-Al
though outplayed by its powerful op
ponent during most of the game
( Princeton played the Navy to a lO.lO
lie before 10000 spectators in the
huge Baltimore Stadium TODAY, A
stubborn defense in the shadow of its
own goal line is all that saved the
sons of Old Nassau from feeling the
hooks of the Navy anchor.

minutes OF play on A short forced
pass. which Shapley carried 50 yards
for a touchdown.

last year booted the field goal that
gave Princeton 17-to-14 verdict over
! the Navy. The Middies came in with
all varsity hands aboard. but were
outlucked by The Tigers from the
start.

, column early. After having it's of
fensive stopped almost to A standstlll
on the opening charge, Ewing. the
Tiger field general, stepped back to
the 35-yard line and booted a field
/ goal, which struck the crossbar and
bounded over the goal. giving the
Tigers lead in the first five minutes
of play. But this lead was soon di
minished by the Middies when Hamil
ton executed similar goal from the
, 26-yard line later in the quarter.
Then the break went against the
Navy. With the ball on the Prince
Z Ton Z4-Sdfu line no TWO minutes 10

attempted a pass. Shapley almost
got his hands on ii, but it caromed
off his fingers into the waiting arms
of CaulkinS who dashed up the field
81. yards to the Navy LIZARD line be
! fore he was dropped from behind.
Bridges carried il over the line on
the first charge, and the Princeton
scoring terminated for the day. Just
! previous TO this play, Slagle ran l3

! Jealous Princeton lineman had start
! ed ahead of the ball and it was called
! back and the Tiger penalized 5 yards
for offsiGN play. This was the only
break of the game which went against
/ Princeton.
Navy Attacks Furiously.
The Navy tossed a furious offense
al Princeton during all of the final
half but a tie is all it could salvage
: from the wreck. The third quarter
! was played almost entirely in Prince
J ton territory, but. the Tiger fought
! gamely when the Navy threatened
| seriously and saved it's lead by kick
! ing out of danger whenever it was
| fortunate enough to get the ball on
| downs.
BY series of line plunges and
! end runs, the Navy rushed the ball
