light of his many Cambridge admir-
ers, and considerably to the discom-
fort of the Princeton veterans who re-
membered his work of the past two
seasons.
The good zeneralship of Princeton’s
quarter, however, who realized the
nervousness with which Brewer would
go into the first few plays, until he
had warmed up, upset these calcula-
tions. Princeton’s first play was an
attack on Brewer’s end by Bannard.
Smith found little difficulty in upset-
ting 3rewer and Bannard went flying
around the end, aided at first by
Smith and then by his own splendid
dodging, for a grand rush of forty-
five yards. Baird kicked the _ goal,
which was an easy one, and Harvard
had been defeated. But, although the
Crimson Knew by this time that her
last hope was gone, her men played
out the game with admirable pluck.
Substitutes were called out by both
the captains until it seemed that
there was hardly a familiar face left
on the gridiron.
While Harvard was fighting desper-
ately to protect her goal, and there
still remained 19 minutes of play,
Princeton showed her supreme confi-
dence by ordering Baird to try for
the goal from Harvard’s 53-yard line.
The Tigers’ full back made a splendid
attempt and the leather sailed high
enough to clear the bars, and missed
them by less than 10 feet. Once more,
the play was simply exchange of kicks,
Princeton invariably gaining, until
she had the ball dowa to Harvard’s
20-yard line. There Brown was again
called upon to get the ball out of dan-
ger, but Church went through upon
him like a flash and blocked the kick.
Brokaw followed the ball over the
line and fell upon it, scoring Prince-
ton’s second touchdown from which
Baird kicked the goal. Score, Prince-
ton 12, Harvard 0.
There was less than 8 minutes of
play left, and the darkness was com-
ing on so fast that the players be-
came indistinguishable from the side
lines, Save in the constant exchange
of kicks. Finally, Brown, exhausted
by his long afternoon’s work, was
carried from the field, and Dibblee
was substituted, thereby giving Har-
vard a last breath which enabled her
to drive the leather to her 45-yard
line as the whistle sounded the end of
the game.
MEN WERE EASILY HURT.
Despite the long delays and the
many substitutions, there were no Sse-
rious accidents. Princeton’s men had
gone into the game with many bruises
and sprains, and they were conse-
quently easily hurt. Harvard’s team
had more serious cripples, who had to
be kept upon the side lines from the
beginning of the game with inexpe-.
rienced men put in their places. With
the exception of several outbursts of
an ugly temper on the part of Church
the game was free from objectionable
features.
THE OUTLOOK FOR YALE.
To a Yale man, the contest furnish-
ed an interesting criterion for con-
jectures as to Yale’s chance aginst
Princeton. The conclusion drawn could
not be otherwise than favorable. Har-
vard’s center was too. strong for
Princeton and Yale’s is certainly as
good as Harvard’s. Harvard’s ends
outplayed their opponents and Yale is
surely the equal of the Crimson in
these points. The cares of the -cap-
tain may give Church a slight handi-
cap over Murphy, but Rodgers should *
be easily a better man than Arm-
stron2.
At quarter the two teams should be
pretty evenly matched with Yale the
favorite. At the backs, Princeton is
stronger to-day and at full back Baird
has no equal, in Kicking, on the field
this Fall. Much, therefore, depends
upon the improvement of Yale’s half-
backs. Hinkey’s line bucking should
counterbalance Baird’s superior kick-
ing, and if Yale can develop a half-
back to take the place of Goodwin,
removed by the edict of the Faculty,
Yale’s chance against Princeton should
on general principles to-day be even.
By the twenty-first of November,
they should be good enough to win,
because Princeton has made her su-
preme effort and is not likely to make
much improvement from now on.
Yale’s team, on the other hand,
should improve rapidly under’ the
careful coaching which it is to receive,
and the next ten days, which are free
from any games, should put the play-
ers in the very pink of condition.
Princeton will certainly play a kick-
ing game and Yale, by as good de-
fensive work as Harvard exhibited,
and much superior offensive work,
should win by a small margin.
The elevens faced each other as fol-
lows:

The Feeling at Princeton.
Princeton, N. J., Nov. 9, 1896..—Th=>
news of the victory over Harvard at
Cambridge last Saturday was greet-
ed with great enthusiasm by the
undergraduates as they saw the game
reproduced on a bulletin board. For,
while a victory was expected by al-
most all, there was a possibility, with
the odds of playing on the home
grounds in favor of Harvard, that the
team might be defeated.
While there is great rejoicing over
the victory in the first championship
game, there is a feeling among those
who saw the game which is shared
also by all the undergraduates, that
the team did not do its best and that
the same kind of fotball will not win
the final game. The chief criticism,
Seems to be that the men did not dis-
play the necessary amount of life and
Snap.
Although several substitutions were
made during the game, none of the
men taken out are seriously hurt ex-
cept Capt. Cochran, who has had his
Shoulder badly twisted. It is hoped,
however, that he will be in condition
to play against Yale. Bannard,
Kelley and Reiter were hurt only
Slightly and were taken out in order
to save them from more serious in-
juries. They will all take part in the
first practice which occurs to-mor-
row. .
The team, barring injuries, which
will face Yale will probably be the
same that played against Harvard.
The new men, as well as the old, play-
ed good football and no changes will
be necessary for this reason. There
is room for improvement and after a
rest of a few days has been taken,
hard practice will be engaged in for
the next two weeks in order to over-
come the: defects which were made
plain by Saturday’s game.
The general feeling in reference to
the Yale game is not one of confi-
dence and iit is generally conceded that
the team will have to play somewhat
better and faster if they expect to end
the season victorious.

Advice to Mr. Troup.
(New York Times.)
We advise Mr. Alexander Troup to
abandon his proceedings for the
punishment of the Yale students who
disturbed Mr. Bryan’s campaign meet-
ing in New Haven. These unman-
nerly young men deserved punishment
at the time, but many weeks have
elapsed, and the exemplary and re-
straining force of the penalty would
be lost. Moreover, if the work of
punishing the disturbers of campaign
meetings were seriously undertaken
and impartially carried on, the bal-
ance of the account would be heavily
against Mr. Troup’s party.
