10 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE; SUNDAY, NOVEMBER lf, 1902. YALE DEFEATS PRINCETON ProTei Victorious- by TweWa to Fire After Exciting Match. TERRIBLE PLUNGES WIN THE BIG GAME (.rs Esrrl Kicking, However, Thai Making; Their Sole rore of Daft lat Otherwise Are Oattptayed. PRINCETON. N. J.. Nor. 15 Tale today defeated Prinqeton In their annual foot ball game by 12 to S. All the scoring waa done In the Brat half. Tale twice played the hall over the Tigers' goal line and D Witt, for Prince ton, dropped a beautiful field goal frotri Yale's forty-fise-ysrd line. It was an In glorloua ending for an otherwise brilliant season. The score does not adequately show Yale's superiority over Princeton. Princeton was really outclassed at all points except In kicking. Here De Witt easily held the honors, but his besutiful punting wss mini mised by the clever work of the Yale back Held. No matter who caught De Witt's skyscraplng spirits, whether It waa Chad wick. Bowman or Metcalf. the ball was In variably brought back from ten to twenty yards by a dodging, wriggling blue player before he could be knocked oft his pins. Fierce Game Waged. The gsme was one of the fiercest ever won on gridiron, yet It was free from unnecessary roughness. Yale played like fiends, and Princeton was but a trifle less reckless. Yale men tackled fiercely and threw themselves under Princeton's at tempted mass plays. Princeton also played Uercely, but Its attempts were futile be fore the quick charging Yale line. When the Tiger linemen went low the Yale men would jump over and when they atood up Yale would brush them aside. Princeton's defense had been Its main stay during the season, but the wonderful holding ability of Its line was seldom mani fested during the game. Early in the sec ond half Yale aecured the ball on lie fifty yard line and by hard, straight foot ball carried It to within two feet of Prince ton's goal. Here the Orange and Black line held like a rock, and Yale lost what looked like a sure touchdown. On two other occasions Yale had the ball within striking distance of Princeton's goal. Once it lost It for holding and again on a fumble. Princeton did not seem to be at its best, while Yale played the game of Its life. To illustrate Princeton's work, In the first half the team gained only seven yards, kicks ' excepted. Time and time again Yale's heavy forwards beat Princeton's Una back before the play was started, and sev eral - times Glass broke through De Witt, Princeton's star guard, and tacked the Princeton runner back of the lines. Yale's offense was a revelation to Prince ton, and the latter's much-vaunted defense was crumbled before the crushing line J0aya of Yale. It Is a remarkable fact fjit Yale rarely attempted an end run, de- Indlng almost entirely on line plunges tt aass on tackle. Chadwlck Plays Remarkably. Obtain Cbadwlck played a remarkable 0t!l7, scoring both touchdowns after sen sational runs of fifty yards each. The battle between Olass and De Witt, . who are recognised aa the leading men in . their poslttona, wss interesting. The former . had the better of the big Princetonlan. De Witt's kicking waa little short of marvelous. Ha was alwaya hurried by the Yale forwards, but In spite of this handicap his punts av eraged about fifty yards. There Is do tell ing what the score would have been had Princeton been without hia aervlces. Princeton wss supposed to excel In the back field, but was really lamentably weak, and not till the close of the second half, when an almost new set of men had been put behind the line did it show any aggres sive line bucking. Yale's men appeared in better physical condition than Princeton, despite the fact that the latter had had a two weeks' rest. Yale waa penalized three tlmea for holding and twice for off side, while Princeton was penalized only twice, both times for off side. The fumbling of the two teams wss about equal. Once Princeton secured the ball on Yale'a twenty-five-yard line when a Yale man dropped it, and almost everybody ex pected another field goal by De Witt, but Yale secured the bsll and kicked out of danger. Both elevena played straight foot ball with the exception of a few fakes. In one of which De Witt gained five yards, and In another Bowman went through Princetons center for ten ysrds. Aside from this there was no ground gained on fakes. The crowd waa the largest that ever wit aeaaed a foot ball contest in this cits, As early as t It began moving toward Nassau field, and standing room was soon at a pre mium, about 18,000 persons being within the big amphitheater. Contrary to Yale's custom, the blue eleven was the first to make Ita appearance. Aa Captain Chadwlck led hia young giants on the field a mighty roar went up from the west stand. This waa outdone by the demonatratlon which greeted the Princeton boys behind Captain Davis. v Priaeetaa Wlas Tass. After running through signals for several minutes, the two captains tossed. Davis called the turn, choosing the south goal, giving Tale the ball. The referee's whistle sounded and Bow man kicked to Princeton's ten-yard Una. Da Witt returned the kick and Yale fumbled on Its forty-flre-rsrd line. Peswon se cured the ball end rn It bsrk ten srds. With the ball on Yale's thirl j-flve-ysrd line De Witt tried s goal from the field, but failed by a few inches. De Wilt then dropped bark for a second try at gosl and sent the hall squarely be tween the posts from Ysle's forty-three-yard line. An exchange snd the boll wss Princeton's on the fifty-two-yard line. On the ' first lineup Chadwlck broke through between left guard snd tackle snd ran fifty-five ysrds for a touchdown. Bow man kicked the goal. There was no more scoring until a few minutes before the first half ended, when De Witt punted to Metcslf on Yale's twen-ty-flve-ysrd line snd tire little halfback ran the ball back eighteen yards. Two line plunges plsced It on Princeton's fifty-yard line snd Chadwlck again broke through and scored the second touchdown. Bowman kicked the goal. The lineup: PRINf KTON. .L. T. ,R. r. Hn1y.

Thirty-five min- WISCONSIN FAILS TO SCORE Minnesota Defeats Opponents by Score of Eleven Tolnte to Sotblner. MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. IS. Minnesota far exceeded Wisconsin In offensive strength, gaining more than two yards to Wiscon sin's one and winning by 11 to 0. The most stubborn defense on Wisconsin's part kent the score down. In the second half Minnesota used both Its heavy backs. Van Valkenburg and Thorpe, who punctured Wisconsin's line for big gains. Minnesota partly earned Its touchdowns, carrying the ball fifty yards by straight line plunges. The individual stars for Minnesota were Van Valkenhurg Hnd Thorpe. Van Val. kenburg carried the ball eight successive times, gaining more than twenty yards and finally taking the ball over. Minnesota's second touchdown was a fluke, on an attempt at a place kick from the twenty-elKht-yard line. Rtrathern mudu a bad pass, Knowlton kicked the ball as It lay on the ground. The oval went to the line and Fogg fumbled It. Strathern se cured the ball and carried it over. The lineup: CHICAGO, Nov. 15. Michigan. 21; Chi cago, 0. This was the result of today's struggle between the oldtlmc rival uni versities, but It tells nothing of the des perate heroism of Chicago's defense. The visitors made but one touchdown by straight foot ball. Ten points came straight from Right End Sweeley, who out of six attempts made two goals from field: a third touohdown was delivered by Left Half Heston, who plunged seventy-five ysrds down the field, unmolested by a local player. Makes Too Many Points. Scores made in this manner are usually called "flukes" by partisans of the de feated team, and by this reasoning Chl cagoans tonight arc averring that 12 to 0 would have Indicated more nearly the rela tive merits of the two trams. Mlchlgnn supporters were disappointed at the showing of the Wolverines. They played with far less speed than against Wisconsin two weeks ago. It looked as If the "locomotive eleven" from Ann Arbor had grown stsle. The news of the decisive defeat of tho Badgers by the Minnesota eleven was re ceived In the Michigan grand stand with the comment: "Unless Michigan gets back into the form of two weeks ago, the west ern championship will go to Minnesota when the two squads meet Thanksgiving day." During the game Michigan carried the ball 470 yards, 280 In the first half and 190 In the second. Chicago In the first half made only forty-five yards, and In the second 185, a total of 230 yards. Chi cago fumbled five times, losing the ball each time, while the Wolverines fumbled but twice and each time recovered the oval. During the first half the ball was not once carried offensively Into Michigan's territory. It was during this half that Chi cago, by the most desperate kind of. work, checked the Micblganders when a few more yards In several Instances would have meant touchdowns for the visitors. Twice on their five-yard line, and once when the ball seemed within a few inches of the line, the Chicago team held with all the valor of despair and punted out of Imme diate danger. (tweeter Kicks from Field. Then Sweeley began trying to place kick goals from the field, eventually making the first points for his team. Soon afterward, when the elevena had changed sides, Heston took the ball on a trick play on his own tblrty-five-yard line and shot down the field for a touchdown. The Michigan In terference boxed Chicago's right end, which was playing close in anticipation of a smash at tackle. Sheldon of Chicago came running across the field, and might have tacklo him, but Heston stopped an In stant near the side line, aa if to dodge, and sped on with a clear field for him, for Sheldon had been deceived and slopped, too. As Sweeley failed to kick goal, the half closed with the score: Michigan, 10; Chicago, 0. During the remainder of the game Chi cago was more formidable, but never dan gerous. The ball waa on Michigan ground several times, but the closest the Maroons got to the coveted touchdown was on Mich igan's seventeen-yard line, whither they hadcarried it. Shortly after this Chicago made Its most disastrous fumble. Sweeley's punt and the ensuing fumble gave Michi gan the ball on Michigan's thirty-five-yard line, and within a few minutes the Maroon field was hurled back and Palmer pusbod over for a touchdown. About 10,000 people saw the game. The weather wa3 cool enough to be Ideal for the sport and the gridiron was In excel lent shape. Michigan put In only two sub stitutes, while Chicago played several more. The lineup: ' MICHIGAN. CHICAGO. Redden b. R K Kn,hl I Palmer I.. T K. T Karr M-XiUKln U u R.

They Also Stop Pennsylvania from Scoring. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 15. Much to the surprise of their supporters, the University of Pennsylvania was defeated today by the Carlisle Indians. To render the defeat more humiliating, the Indians prevented Pennsylvania from scoring, winning by E to 0. Pennsylvania's failure to cross Carlisle's goal line was due principally to Torrey. The ball had been forced down the field until It rested within a few feet of the Indians' goal, when It was passed to Torrey, who fumbled, and the Indians im mediately kicked It out of the way. Pennsylvania's defense was sufficiently strong in the first half to prevent Carlisle getting the ball over the goal line, but in the second the Indians resorted to rushing. It took just twenty-five plays for the In dians to carry the bail ninety-five yards for their solitary touchdown. There was no fumbling and delay, but on the one-yard line the Quakers braced and held the In dians, but on the second plunge by Wil liams the ball went over the line. DRAKE PLAYSJEVEN WITH AMES Desperate Straggle In Which I'nlver. slty Team Shows Surprising Strength. (From a 8taff Correspondent.! DES MOINES, la.. Nov. 15. (Special Telegram.) Two thousand persons spent a very disagreeable hour almost In the rain, watching the foot ball teama of Drake, uni. verslty and State college of Ames play a or,? game, without scoring. The surprise of the Irarter In the mud. By tandem formations after the opening of the second half Ames rushed the ball to the Drake five-yard line, where the Drake line auddenly be came a stone wall and held for downs. Stuart sent the ball far Into Ames' terri tory. Ames was soon forced to kick again, and again Drake's punter sent the spheroid far Into the Ames field. From this on the play was desperate, with honors even, tho game ending with the score 0 to 0. CORNELL, PROVES -VICTORIOUS Annihilates Lafayette Eleven ley Score at Twenty-Eight to Nothing. ITHACA, N. T.. Nov. lB.-In a gridiron battle far more evenly waged than the score of 28 to 0 Indicates Cornell this after noon defeated Lafayette. The first touchdown was made within four minutes. Guards back and other mass formations of the visitors were quickly broken up and they rarely made substan tial gains. Cornell's linemen plowed through Lafayette for long and consistent gains and the backs shot around the wings for advanors ranging from three to forty yards. The feature of the day was the brilliant game In line and everywhere else of Warner and the flue kicking of Brewster, who dropped two goals from the field. Weeka lleeton Herrnateln J. By. H. ..
