  YALE DEFEATS PRINCETON IN SLOW CONTEST Eli Cohorts Co Wild With Joy as Victorious Team Marches From Field; Result Is Bitter Disappointment to Tigers. PRINCETON, N J.. Nov. 1S-Yale triumphed over Princeton in the an nual football game here today by score of 10 to O. The result of the contest was a bitter disappointment to Tiger adherents. Errors of play and generalship by the Orange and Black team virtually permitted all opportunities for Eli scoring. The New Haven combination was quick to take advantage of the openings and the Blue won her third straight vic tory from the Orange and Black. Play is Uncertain The play was slow and uncertain and both combinations repeatedly failed to advance or retain possess ion of the ball at critical moments. Princeton showed the same defensive strength which has marked her play against elevens all fall. but little or no effective offensive. Yale, with a better balanced combination, swung loose fair attack when scoring ap- peared possible and with field goal and touch down routed the Tigers. Yale Cohorts Celebrate Yale cohorts went wild with joy when the Eli team, led by Captain Tilleck, emerged victorious from a contest in which it was thought Yale had but an outside chance of winning Under grades and haired alumni eel ebrated with cheers and snake dances while overhead two aeroplanes spir- alled and volplaned. The contest throughout the first two periods showed little advantage either way Both eiGvens had oppor- tunities to kick field goals but in each case poor generalship on the part of the quarterbacks prevented scoring. Easy Field Goal Yale’s initial chance followed i’m mediatelv after the kickoff at the op- ening of the third period. Legore drove the ball high to Princeton’s 20 yard mark where the Princeton play CTS permitted it to strike the ground and bound back into the arms of Left End Moseley. He grabbed the sphere and started for the Orange and Black goal line. Captain Hogg threw him with a vicious tackle. ~. After two line plunees Braden kicked an easy field goal from the 26- yard line In the fourth and final period the Blue clirched the game by adding q touchdown and goal from touch down.
