...game replete with thrills and sudden surprises, Yale again proved its ability to perform the impossible and vanquished the Tigers at their own game by the decisive score of 13 to 7. The Eli team showed the effects of its recent reformation and seemed imbued with a spirit of determined fight that would not be denied, and the first few times the Yale backs tore through the Tiger line were moments of great surprise to the Princeton rooters. But the biggest surprise of all came in Guernsey's out-punting of Driggs. Before the game Yale could boast...

Colgate's victories over the Army and Yale merit her at least considerable attention. But the previous standing of both those elevens places Colgate below the first three. The University's victory over Princeton eliminates the Tiger's claim to the championship. Cornell's claim is perhaps the most convincing, and it is likely to stand unchallenged, for it is hardly probable that Penn. will defeat Harvard's vanquishers. The Crimson was in a different stage of development when Cornell came to the Stadium; and Cornell's otherwise easy schedule greatly lessens the strength of her claim. The championship, then...

...Captain Glick excellent, and the individual play of Tibbott, who scored 16 points, and of Driggs, who excelled in punting, were factors in the overwhelming victory of 30 to 7. A 27 to 0 victory over Williams was accomplished last week without the aid of five of the Tiger regulars.

That Princeton is saving its best strategy to use against Harvard was plainly shown in the former's game against Williams on Saturday. Without the services of five of its most valuable men the Tiger eleven by means of simple, straight football battered out a 27 to 0 victory over the lighter team from the Berkshires. Williams, though outweighed and outclassed, nevertheless, withstood staunchly the Tigers' attack in the first half and held the victors to a single touchdown. In the second half, however, Princeton's persistent hammering told upon the Purple eleven and three more touchdowns were piled...

...game. N. Garfield, from Taft School, is the best pitcher, and will undoubtedly work the major part of Monday's game. In the Princeton 1918 game, a week ago, he held his opponents to two hits, allowing only two bases on balls, and striking out 10 of the Tiger players...
