...line, but was tackled powerfully. Fnally, R. Hodge of Princeton sent it down the field beyond the reach of Yale's full-back. Had not Lamar slipped in his attempt to seize it, a touch-down for Princeton would have been inevitable. But slip he did, and the ball went gracefully up the field under charge of Capt. Peters, who managed to force it over Princeton's goal line. But, as one of Yale's team was unfortunately off side, the claim of touch-down was dissallowed and only a touch in goal granted.
