...ball down the field and very soon a pretty run in by Peters brought a touchdown. The ball was brought out and Richards kicked an early goal for Yale, only eight minutes having elapsed since the game began. Princeton now settled down to work, and soon Moffat's kicking sent the ball flying around Yale's territory in a threatening manner. During the confusion Yale really made a safety, but owing to an agreement made before the game it did not come under the definition of a safety in this year's rules. Princeton tried hard to score and kept...

Morgan kicked off for Columbia at 3 o'clock, and after a little scrimmaging and tackling, Peters made a touch-down, Terry following with the first goal for Yale inside of two minutes. In six minutes he sent in another from the field. Some fine running and dodging b Farewell soon added another for the dark blues. One or two New Haven men made an attempt at a "Rah, Rah !" but it sounded so lonesome that the attempt was not repeated during the rest of the afternoon. A pretty play by Robinson and Farewell, of the Yale team, won applause...
