THE GAME REVIEWED.
Where Yale and Princeton Outplayed
Each Other.
[Caspar Whitney in Harper’s Weekly.]
It was to be expected that Gailey at
center would prove too much _ for
Chamberliin, and yet the latter did
ccmparatively better than several of
the Yale forwards whose longer ex-
perience presaged abler work. Cham-
berliuin did very little to keep Gailey
cut of the play, but time and again
he hurled himself in front of that
Princeton catapult when it was direct-
ed at the center, and stopped it for
short gains when it seemed to be driv-
ing on through all opposition. Arm-
strong, Princeton’s right guard, had
less difficulty with Murray, whose po-
sition was regarded the weakest spot
in the Yale line. An entirely unex-
pected weakness was revealed, how-
ever, in Yale’s other guard position,
held by Chadwick. He was not so
completely outplayed, perhaps, by
Crowdis as Murrav was by Armstrong,
but he fell far shcrt of playing the
game counted upon or of showing the
form of last’ year. On breaking
through he was somewhat stronger
than Crowdis, but his tackling was
too high to be of greatest value on de-
fensive work, and he was driven like
chaff before the wind when Princeton
sent her plunging backs in his direc-
tion.
By all odds, the greatest surprise of
the day was furnished by the superb
work of the Princton tackles, and es-
pecially in MHillebrand’s superiority
over Rodgers. - The latter is a veteran
who last year did splendid work at
Manhattan Field, and has all along
been depended on by Yale to make
that place of the line invulnerable.
He too, like Chadwick, excelled his
vis-a-vis in breaking through, but the
Princeton man kept him from being a
very valuable factor in the play, and
made holes through him when calied
upon to do so. On the other side of
the line Church and Murphy were re-
garded, before the game, as about
even, and each was expected to keep
the other so busy that neither would
be much in the play. Church, how-
ever, outplayed his clever opponent,
and shone prominently from first to
last. He put up the finest game a
tackle has shown this year, and as
clever a one as has been seen in
American football. He was a much
more valuable man to his team against
Yale than he had been against Har-
vard, because he devoted all his time
to playing football, and not part of it
to roughing. We commend his clean-
er exhibition.
At one end of the line Bass and
Cochran were very nearly even, with
the former a bit the better; at the
other end Connor was no match for
Brokaw. Yale would have been much
stronger if Hinkey had been played at
his old place, for though his kicking
was good, it hardly seemed beyond
what another might have done if
coached in season, while his absence
from the line made a very weak spot
at one end. Connor not only was no
match for Brokaw, but his tackling
was irdifferent, instead of getting into
his man, he invariably waited for the
runner to reach him. The tackling of
the Yale team as a whole, indeed, left
much to be? desired. Outside of Mur-
phy, Bass, Hinkey, Fincke and Rod-
gers, it did not get into the runner
with the accustomed Yale spirit and
grip.
With three new backs, and none of
them trustworthy in catching punts,
it was necessary to play Fincke at
full wren on the defensive, but in do-
ing so Yale lost the services of a bril-
liant tackler, who would have proved
invaluable on Saturday. MHinkey dd
good work in tackling, but the other
backs revealed the common tendency
to tackle high and not get into the on-
ceming runner. In ground gaining
Yale has never made so weak an ex-
hibition, nor, in justice must it be said,
has she ever faced a team so difficult
to gain on. Generally speaking, her
advance with the ball in hand was
immaterial. Once Benjamin got
through Princeton’s left guard for a
thirty yard run, and once Mills went
through the opponents’ left tackle for
a gain of equal length; but at all other
times Princeton quickly stopped Yale’s
attempts.
Of Princeton’s eleven every one put
up the game of his life, and all the
men back of the line played brilliantly.
Smith’s work at quarter was excel-
lent, his tackling being especially nota-
ble, while his run down the side-lines
with the ball passed to him by Baird
when tackled on a caught punt, was
one of the game’s features. Kelly
and Bannard and, when the latter re-
tired, Wheeler were all great in ground
gaining, but the greatest of these was
Kelly. Such determined, irresistible
line-bucking has rarely been seen on
the gridiron, and certainly never sur-
passed, ‘and Kelly must be written
down as one of the best backs of the
year. He has fully earned a place on
the All-America. univers:ty eleven of
1896, and Bannard is but little his in-
ferior.

[New York Herald.]
The score was one sided, it is true;
the irresistible Tigers bucked the Yale
centre again and again and bore on to
victory. But it was a victory that was
disputed every inch of the way to its
accomplishment, and the vanquished
as well as the victors merited the
rousing cheers they received.
Both teams deserve every credit for
the manly, sportsmanlike manner in
which they kept their temper and
avoided all unfair play.
