versity football squad today pre-
pared to wind up its training pro-
cess for the annual rivalry clash

Coach Phelan's squad appears to

notes excellent condition of mind

Phelan has been handing his var
sity backfield quartet some strenu-
GUS work and for the four-way COM
bination of speed and power, Bob
Wilson, Captain Wilcox, Ralph
WEIGH and Dutch Koransky, should
be in tip-top form against the

Some of the varsity understudies
to the four regular backs have been
making gallant attempts to show
their ability and it almost is q
certainty that Harmeson, Miller,
Guthrie, Leichtle and Caraway will
see action in some part of Satur-
days fray. Prentice, Hook, OlsorA
Hickman and Galletch have been
showing up well in the center of
the line while Hutton and Sindelar

BREAK DECIDED GAME

RI NE big break decided the
Ii J Yale Princeton game, long
III forward pass that succeeded
and resulted in a touchdown.
Yale deserved that break because
she made it by taking a desperate
yet logical chance. On fourth
down, with twelve yards to go and
the ball in the middle of the field,
Hoben tossed a 3O-yard pass to Fish
wick, who raced twenty yards for the
touchdown that tied The game.
At the start Of the fatal pass, the
Princeton secondary seemed to be
centering its attention on Scott. In
the meantime, F'ishwick drifted, over
from his position at right end almost
to the sidelines on the opposite side
of the field to take Hoben's pass I'M
lnolested and run for touchdown.

TIGERS BEST AT FIRST

OR fifty minutes of the
game, Princeton outplayed
IL Yale. The margin was slight,
perhaps just about what the score
showed, 60.
In the last ten minutes of the
game Yale had the edge. One des-
perate play changed the entire COM
plexion of the game, started Yale
to victory and Princeton to defeat.
The game was a battle of two
great lines. Yale was conceded to
have the stronger line by most, "ex-
perts," yet for fifty minutes the
Tiger forwards made jest of expert
opinion.
Twice Yale was within the ten
yard line with four downs to put
over the touchdown. Yet, on each
occasion Princeton rose to great
heights and held for downs.
