touchdown passes ran his total

The Tigers were hungry ano
sharp from the outset, accepting q
f1rst-play tumble which went tc
Cornell without a show of dis
couragement. They proved it min
uteS later by marching 81 yards
to post a TO lead. AS it was al
afternoon. Kazmaier was the mair

Princeton's 13 to Cornell's 4, from

End Frank McPhee and so Cornell
trailed from beginning to end.
Late in the first period. McPhee
also recovered a tumble by HALF

Princeton capitalized on it. Kaz-
maier, who was to complete his
first eight passes, threw to Len
Lyons on the dead run for a 20
yard gain and completed the quick
scoring strike by pegging a perfect
