58 Princeton Tiger and Yale Bulldog Battle to an Even Break Old Nassau Has New Englanders Apparently, Safe When Spectacular Play Saves the Day for Invaders Pumpelly Saves Eli From a 6 To 3 Defeat by Kicking a Fifty- Four Yard Goal From Field Wonderful Play at Finish Makes Thousands Hold Breath; Ball Actually Dances on Cross Bar of Tiger Goal [Special Dispatch to The Call] PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 16.—8y the luckiest scratch in the world Yale escaped what looked like sure defeat on Princeton field today. It was Pumpelly who saved the blue. Princeton had two field goals, Yale one. Through that desperately fought last quarter Yale tried by every trick and artifice and by a crushing attack to drive the Tigers down to within reach of their goal line. In spite of all they could do, the obstinate Tiger defense held most obstinately. Princeton out- played and outfought Yale. This was in spite of the tremendous advantage given by the strong north wind. Flvnn punted continually, but the Tigers, starting with Hobey Baker, marched straight back up the field again. Only a scant half minute was left to play when Yale had the ball and lined up for 42 yards in front of the goal posts. No one expected a kick then, and when Pumpelly dropped back four yards over in Yale's own territory a fake play was looked for. but Pum pellv kicked a 54 yard field goal. Here again Yale pulled out by the merest scratch, for the ball, floating down, j actually struck the center of the cross bar. If It had fallen six Inches shorter it would have gone underneath with out touching. A moment later the last whistle blew. Yale's joy was as great as if she had scored a victory. Thirty thousand football enthusiasts formed a wall of humanity around the gridiron. Everybody cheered and stamped and rooted—not only because everybody felt that way, but because they had to keep in motion or become stiff with cold. The warmest wraps were but poor protection against the chill wind unless one kept the blood ln circulation by violent bodily and vo cal exertions. A stiff wind was blowing across the field when Hobey Baker kicked off for Princeton. From the very start Prince ton found that she was able to force Yale back, while the New Haven ath letes tried hard to get through the Tier line. For the first part of the came the men went at it hammer and iongs. Line plunges followed punts, and punts line plunges. Shortly be fore the end of the first period Flynn r'tinted to Baker, who fumbled and was dropped on Princeton's 20 yard line directly In front of the goal. Spalding twice in succession failed to budge the orange and black line. On the next attempt he made three yards through Logan. Flynn then dropped back and made a beautiful drop kick, the first score of the game. The Yale cheer leaders frantically waived their arms for a mighty cheer for Flynn. That was the end of scoring for the first period. THE SECOND PERIOD In the second Princeton evened things up. With the ball on Yale's 38 yard line, Hobey Baker dropped back and kicked. The ball was passed out cleanly and Baker's toe drove it squarely between the goal posts. For the balance of the period Flynn and Waller engaged in a very pretty punting duel, which the high wind made largely a matter of luck. Finally frtaeetbn took the aggressive, and by a series of desperate line plunges took the ball to the Yale three yard line, where by the hardest kind of play it was held until the half was over. There was jubilation in the Tiger stands during the 15 minutes' rest, but the Tigers were not too encouraged. On Yale's last two visits to Princeton they have seen Princeton take the lead in the first half, only to lose it in the last. To the surprise of the spectators Yale chose the south goal again. Her strategy, however, was apparent. She was saving the advantage of the wind for the last quarter. Yale Is tradi tionally a strong finisher. GAME SEEMS TIGERS' Early in the third period it looked as though Princeton had won the game. Flynn kicked off to Dewitt, who came wriggling back for 25 yards. Dewitt kicked out of bounds on Yale's 25 yard line. Flynn started around Princeton's left end, but Pendleton smeared him. Flynn tackled and on a false forward pass Dewitt punted the ball away down nearly to the goal line. Baker was swung around Yale's right and could not gain an inch. There was only one more chance. The Tigers still had the ball, only three yards from Yale's goal line and almost directly in front of the posts. H. Baker dropped for a drop kick. For a moment the whole play seemed to hesitate, then the ball flew out from Blumenthal right into Baker's hands. As it reached him the blue line was already surging up against the orange and black. Two or three blue jersey men broke through, but even as they were closing in upon him Hobey Baker deliberately dropped the ball and booted it out over their extended arms. It ciearetl the bars. There was plenty of action, but no results until just before the end of the game. Dewltt kicked low and Spalding caught the ball. Here Yale made her successful forward pass, Flynn to Shel don, for 18 yards. Another forward pass, Flynn to Pumpelly, failed to gain. BULLDOGS DRSPERATE Yale was desperate now and tried a long forward pass straight down the field, but it failed. The Yale team lined up on Princeton's 40 yard line. Pumpelly drew back and in another moment had kicked for a field goal. His actual distance from the goal line was 54 yards. The ball rose true, and with a heavy wind blowing straight behind, sailed straight for the bar. It hung In the air so long that silence fell over the rival rooters. Then, dropping, it fell fairly on the crossbar and dropped over. Yale had scored by an eyelash and tied the score. Yale was furious and eager now. Princeton was almost stunned by the sudden and unexpected turn in her for tunes. Yale made several swift gains and then the desperate Tigers held ob stinately. Time was called when Princeton had the ball on her 35 yard line. It was a hair raising game—a game which will be talked about for a long time to come. \ Gophers Are Champions [Special Dispatch to The Call] MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 16.—Wisconsin won the western football championship today from Minnesota in a fierce but rather one sided game, the final score being 14 to 0.

FINAL RALLY PUTS AUSTRALIA ON TOP Desperate Resistance of America of No Avail Against Whirl wind Finish Continued From Page 67 maximum expenditure of both by the American team. Every man on the American team played right up to his best form. The result of the game shows that. There was one man, however, who stood out more than any other yesterday. That man was Benny Erb. His playing at fullback was of the same marvelous type that has characterised his work all through the season. Sure at taking the files, sure at fielding the ball and sure at getting away, Benny Erb was to Australia yesterday what the rock of Gibraltar is to the maritime na tions of the world— unconquerable. Chet Allen was in his element at cen ter three-quarter, and Noble played a great game on his wing. He was in strumental ln breaking up many Aus tralian passing bouts through inter ception, and as a defensive player gave a great exhibition. Peart, on the other wing, showed all his great form, but he was not called on /or as much work as* Noble. Harrigan and Austin formed a great combination at five-eighths, and Cap tain Monte Morris showed all his ability behind the pack. IT WAS SURE SOME PACK The pack? Well, it was some pack! The front row men, Sanborn, McKtrn and Arrell, beat the Australians to the ball time and time again. Schaupp and Smith were in everything, and Gard and Momson came around the scrum and broke up the Australian attack all the time. Big Bill King was a tower of strength. Larry Dwyer was undoubtedly the best player on the Waratah team. His great work at center three-quarter was in a great measure the cause of yester day's victory. At intercepting, feint ing and dozens of other little tricks he outwitted the American defense time and again. Meibusch on the three quarter wing played his usual heady game and scored a pretty try for his team. Adamson at five played the best game he has shown on the tour, „and Captain Prentice also was in his best form. He was In every attacking move ment and played a solid, winning game. Of the forwards. Bill Murphy showed to better advantage yesterday than he ever has done. Tom Griffin was not quite at his best, while Copper Kent played a whale of a game. Fahey and Pugh worked hard and shone brilliantly throughout. Australia took play Into America's 25 at the jump, but it was only momen tary. The Australians came back, how ever, and Walker, Adamson, Prentice and Dwyer looked like scoring when Noble relieved with a kick to touch. A minute later Adamson marked and Prentice failed in the goat: Prentice failed to take the drop out and the forwards, headed by Momson and King, downed the Australian in his danger zone. Austin made a poor kick and the Waratahs took the ball to America's 25. A scrum was formed and Walker,, Adamson and Meibusch worked the blind side of the pack, but Noble brought Meibusch down near the goal line. Smith of America was prominent ln the loose and with two different kicks when surrounded took play from his own territory into Australia's 25 zone. Watson broke away with the ball at his toes> going dow n the field for 40 yards to Erb. Benny stopped the rush, and when tackled Peart came to his assistance and got touch at half way. >OBLE ON THE JOB The American forwards took play to the opposition quarter, and then Fahey and Pugh retaliated with a rush to the 25. Walker and Adamson looked dangerous, but Noble intercepted and saved with a kick to touch at half way. A minute later Noble was again in evidence with an interception and a fine run of 30 yards. He passed in to Harrigan when tackled, and this lad sped on for a few yards and was downed near the goal line. A scrum was formed on the five yard line and Morris hurled the ball out to Allen. Thence it traveled to Austin and on to Harrigan, the latter going over for the first points. Erb made a wonderful goal. America 5, Austra lia 0. Sanborn, Momson, King and McKim took play to Australia's 15 yard line. Great passing by America's backs. A scrum was formed and Murphy and Richards broke away with the ball at their toes. Morris picked up and Allen, Harrigan and Noble were once* more in a passing bout. Peart next crossed the ball, but Dwyer took it, and after a 30 yard run with Allen In full chase It looked like a try. Allen flew through the air, though, and Dwyer came to-mother earth. In the second half America started out with the same determined tactics. Sanborn came down the field on a dribble, but Dwyer picked up and passed to Pugh, the latter running 20 yards. A free kick was given to America at 10 yards from half way and Erb sent a great boot between the posts. America 8, Australia 0. Australia was now livening up and America had to force a couple of times. A scrum was formed. Walker feinted his way around the pack, then shot the ball out to Kent and on to Adamson, who completed the run for a try. No goal. America 8, Australia 3. An exchange of punts between Erb ' and Dwyer resulted in Erb's finding touch. The Australian backs were now working like machinery and rush after rush was got under way. Then Dwyer picked up in a rush and passed to Meibusch, the diminutive three-quarter scoring. THE WHIRLWIND FINISH The pace was hot and only six min utes to play when Fahey scooped out to Prentice, thence to Dwyer and to Carrol, who scored—but no goal—giv ing Australia the lead with 9 points to 8. A minute later America was penal ized) and Prentice goaled, bringing the final score up to Australia 12, America S. Full time came a minute later. The teams lined up as follows: America. Position.

Cooper, Who Is Named Head of Fly Casting Club Organization, Leader In Work for Entire United States, Holds Annual Meeting Among the many organizations ln San Francisco there is perhaps no small organization the membership of which Is so prized as that of the San Fran cisco Fly Casting.club. It is one of the oldest clubs devoted to fly casting in the United States and has done more for the development of fly casting than any other organisation in the United Stateß. The club held Its annual meeting Fri day night at the Talt-Zlnkand cafe. These directors were elected: F. J. Cooper, W. D. Mansfield, H. B. Sperry, F. H. Reed, G. C. Edwards, J. F. Siebe, J. F. Burgln, W. H. Metson. Paul M. Nippert. The directors elected as officers: F. J. Cooper, president; H. B. Sperry, first vice president; F. H. Reed, second vice president; Paul M.

It has built a fishing lodge at Its preserves on the Truckee near Union Mills. er of the California Rugby union and other officers of this body, as well as Graduate Manager Donald and repre sentatives of California and Stanford universities, A special car was re served for the Australians on the train and on arrival in San Francisco some thousands of people were waiting to escort them to the steamer Governor. The sailing time had been delayed from 2 until 6:30 o'clock for the con venience of the team. The team said all tftair farewells and boarded the Governor and were given a big sendoff as they climbed the gangway. Once on board the team gathered together and gave cheer after cheer for California. Stanford, the Olympic olub. Barbarians and all other organizations they had played during their trip. All their war cries were gone through, and the big crowd kept the men busy with cries of "We want more"—and more the crowd got. The party of Australians have made them selves prime favorites during their stay. Their general good behavior and gentlemanly manners have endeared them to a large circle of people ln Cal ifornia, -" . One man was left behind—Bob Adamson. The crack five-eighths? missed the train at Berkeley and when he ar rived at the dock the Governor was steaming through the Golden gate. He will leave on the Shasta limited with Manager Bohrsmann and Mrs. Bohrs mann this morning. On arrival ln Vancouver th*e team will be taken in charge by the British Columbia Rugby union and a series of three games will be played there. The men sail for Australia November 27 on the steamer Makura. Cunningham Auto Be Proud of This Honor The coast ltfague baseball players have just been through a combing out process as to "who Is the most efficient player in the league." The scorer* of the league voted tht Gus Hetling was the gink, and he was consequently given an up to date automobile. The Paciflo Coast league and Gus Hetling have nothing on Australian Rugby football players, however, as yesterday. Just before he left for Aus tralia, Pete Cunningham, one of the most popular members of the Waratah team, received a cable from his home saying that he had been voted the au tomobile that is given in Sydney every year to the most popular football play er on and off the field. Cunningham was* unfortunate enough to receive severe injuries in the early stages of the Waratah tour and has not played since the first Stanford game. In his playing he showed him self to be a wonder as a forward and judging by his amiability and general good fellowship during his stay It Is not hard to understand how he was awarded such a prize.

FRICTION BETWEEN NOTED CUB STARS Evers and Tinker In the Habit of Fightitfg Like Kil kenny Cats [Special Dispatch to The Call] CHICAGO, Tgov. 16.—Frequent quar rels between Johnny Evers, newly ap pointed manager of the Chicago Na tionals and Joe Tinker, star shortstop and leading candidate for the position of manager of the Cincinnati Reds for 1913, during the years they have played side by side on the baseball diamond are responsible for Tinker's anxiety to get away from the Cubs. At least this is the story that gained circulation to day. It appears that Evers and Tinker are not the fast friends the public be lieves them to be. While the star players are not enemies off the field, each Is jealous of the other and both realize that Tinker could not give the best services to the Cubs under Evers. In the years past they have criticised each other when one made an error. Sometimes Evers got the best of the argument and again Tinker won. With Evers as manager Tinker could not hope to win an argument. Frank Chance had the respect of both players and urged them to forget their troubles on the ball field. Usually they did get over a spat prompted by some play at a critical moment within a day or so. Both men have fiery tempers. In spite of their trouble, a friendship exists between the two. Tinker is glad Evers was named as Chance's suc cessor and Johnny Is pleased that Joe Is to have a chance to manage a big league ball club. Two Speedy Basket Ball Games Today Owing to the Inclemency of the weather during the last week, the basketball teams of the Catholic Schools Athletic league have been keeping under cover, only those being fortunate enough to have the use of an indoor court doing anything like regular work. Borne of the others, however, have taken advantage of every opportunity to practice while the sun shone. Most of the schools are waiting until after the meeting of the delegates, scheduled for the middle of this week, before starting their teams. St. Peter's and Star of the Sea, together with Sacred Heart grammar, already have had their squads out in anticipation of the meeting. St. Peters is especially busy, having a record that they want to continue. In every C. 8. A. L. tour nament to date they have won at least one championship. Very few veterans of last year are now at the school. The unlimited class team has a lone "vet" ln McCormack, the fast forward, who captained last year's champion 110 pound team. Other men on this squad are Joe Kavanaugh, the gigantic center; W. Danahy, a for ward, and Fogarty, Flanagan and Dele hanty, guards.
