The seors stands, and if there had been any change it was Princeton who had still other chances to rile the agony cns And you can write it down now thas Princeton and Harvard will be playing again just year from to-day, and the first suggestion for a game viii aa come from Princeton.

  PRINCETON DOWNS HARVARD, 10 TO 3 Tigers, Taking Advantage of FumbIes, Repeat Victory of Last Year. PLAYED WAITING GAME Touchdown and Field Goal Scored by Winners in Uphill Fight. PLAYED WAITING GAME B1 the Associated Press. f2 CAMBRIDGE, Mass. November II. “A Tiger team that looked long before it leaped. and then jumped effectively when its adversary exposed himself by fumbles. won from Harward today. 10 to 3. 1t was another victory for the opportunist school of foot ball at Princeton. 1t was a second successive defeat for the Crimson by players wearing the Orange and Black. and by the same the Tigers lad won game in Harwards stadium. Princeton turned two Harvard fumbles into 10 points. Gehrke’s mum in the second period opened the way to the touchdown scored by Crum and the consequent point on kick by Dinsmore. Another tumble by Spaulding. substitute quarterback. in the third period. made possible field goal by Baker. This scoring by the Tiger team came after Harvard had gone into an early lead on goal from placement, kicked by Owen in tho first period. and Stout were the heroes, who JUS titled the Princeton policy of wait ing, waiting, through time after time of rushing opportunity. by pouncing on the balls let loose by Harvard errors. There were no Sammy Whites in the Princeton lineup today to run for touchdown with loose ball, al though the opportunity for one was ready made In the play that brought the ball to Baker, but the Tigers were alert and aggressive and gained the ball every time Harvard let go Of it, Scored On .Funbles. It was tho irony Of the foot ball fates of the day that the winning teams longest advance on Its merits. one Of sixty yards. made in the third period, went without score when Baker failed on a try for field goal, while its scoring was done on short advances after fumbles were SO dis astrous to Harvard. Similarly Harvard’s greatest sustanned advance. one Of 40-yards in the second period. which ended with Owens unsuccessful attempt for a goal from the field, and 4o-yards in the last period, when forward passes of last ditch strategy brought the Crimson along and then failed them. were without scoring reward. The goal from placement scored by Owen was the reward of Buell’s fair catch on Princeton’s a0-yard line. The head work Of the Harvard captain, accounted the best in the country. was lost to his team by a leg injury soon after the second neriod started. The Crimson team was In tho hands Of three other field generals in the course Of the remainder Of the game, with varying SUCCESS. Limping of the field. Capt Buell. saw the Prinoston stands empty onto the Rreensward. fall in behind its hand. and start the serpentipe march of victory. This march, in which men and women Joined, was carried up and down tho deld. across the Anderson bridge and to the classic shades Of the Harvard yard, where the score was shouted that those still held at academic tasks in Harvard halls might know Of Princeton’s victory. $4,000 See Game. Fifty-two thousand persons had seen tho Tiger triumph again. The crowd was a. colorful as any that has attended the long limo Of contests between teams Of the big
