Yn'p immediately started the smashing game, but it could do lit tle with the crimson line, awl punt ing was resorted to. Coy kicked t the tmnl posts and the ball was re covered on Princeton's one-yard line. The referee, however, decided that the hall had crossed the lino, and the pigskin was carried to the 20-yard line whfere Pennington was r"t a free kick. Goebel blocked, the-attempt, but Lilley recovered the ball and carried it across tho goal for a touchdown. ITobbs kicked gon'. Here Cnrcy replaced Howe at fluartcrback and after a rally of punis, -Jiuqmy repincea uaiy ai ngni halfback and Nndel went in for A'nuphn at right end.

At the end of the first hnlfi the score stood: Yale 8, Princeton 0. In the early part of the second half Savage relieved Nadel. After n. number of line-smashing plays Coy kicked a field goal. At this point McGreeor snccceded McCronhan. I By a series of lino smashes Yale fot the ball to Princeton's 18-yard line and Coy went through center for two yards again. He plunged int othe line again, but was stopped a yard of tho goal. Cobb went across the line on the next attempt, dicing the final score: Yale 17, Princeton 0. (United Prss Leased Wr.) STANFORD FIELD, Cnl., Nov. 13. For the first time sinco Rugby was introduced in the colleges, California defeated Stanford this afternoon in a beautifully played game by the score of 19 to 13. The victory came unexpectedly to the crowd, as Stan ford had been a strong favorite, but after tho Stanford men had crossed the California line in the first ten minutes of piny,, the California team developed wonderful speed and strength and from that moment dis played thci rsuperiority. California scored all their points iu the first half, crossing the Stan- thcy wero outplayed iu tho firt half and failed to come back with the cx pecte dnrsh in the second half. It was a clean-cut victory for tho California team, and the rooters, cheering, marched away from thu field singing. "There'll Be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight."

Corbett, a Portland boy, plnying left halfback on the Har ford goal three times and Elliott yard football team, is practically kicking two beantitful goals from the certain to be ohoscn captain of next field. The gloom of Stanford can be appreciated through the fact that it is the first time she ever1 lost a varsity gamo on her own field. The California men were carried off tho field by the rooters, who surged down in an enthusiastic ser pentine dance, yelling and screaming like madmen. For California. Captain Corf,' Johns, Elliott and Dwiggins were! pre-eminently the stars of the Berk eley 'aggregation. Myron Harris of California distinguished himself by kiclfiug a goal from the very side lines. Tho heavy Stanford forwards overran their Berkeley opponents nt times, but the Berkeley line was ex tremely effective in breaking up Stanford's rushes. Captain Mitchell, Holman and Cass were probably the stars for Stan ford. Stanley Mitchell played a fine game for Stanford. He was injured. Stanford can have no excuses, as year's team. 'Persons well informed in athletic circles at the university sny that there is little doubt that Corbett will be chosen, rather than Wnyland M. Minot, tho fullback, who has been discussed for the place. Corbett is one of the star players on the team, being particularly fine nt punting the ball. AUSTRALIAN SPORTS ARE AFTER THE BIG FiGHT (United PrcitH Leaned Wire.) SYDNEY, Australia, Nov, 13. Promoter Mcintosh linn cabled an offer of $75,000 for the Johnson Jeffries fight. Arrangements have been made by the promoter to post the nccessnrv forfeit in New York by December 1, when the bids are to be opened. Johnson has said, that he would not fight in Australia, but if the price was large enoHgh he might. (Vnlted Prens I.ensed Ylre.) ITHACA, N. Y., Nov. 13. Another deadlock for Cornell and Chicago.

Like that bat , tie, the game today was stubborn, taxing every power to mo iiiiuuhu ou evenly matched wore the rivals that there is litllo to pick between them. It was the maroon's magnificent de fense that gave them equal honors. Once on the thrvo-yard line and , again snt the. eight-yard mnrk the midway forwards proved their worth.

Chalmers-Detroit "30" and "40" and Hudson Chalmers "30" makes fastest average ever recorded for cars of its class. This is what the Motor Age says of the Chalmers-Detroit "30V performance In the Vanderbilt cup race: "In the small-car class Matson in the little Chalmers Blue Bird has set a record which will not be easily beaten by cars of his class. Ills average speed was 58.5 miles per hour, faster than was ever made before In this country or elsewhere for a car of Ms size in a long-distance race. It also says this regarding the race for the Massapequa cup for small cars of tho Chalmers "30" class. The honor of making the best performance In the three races to day goes to the small cars com peting for the Massapequa sweep stakes, six starting In this and four finishing. "This race of ten laps proved a runaway for Joe Matson in No. 43 Chalmers, who covered the 126.4 miles, or ten circuits, in 129 mlmites, 522-5 seconds, at an av erage spued of 58.5 miles per hour. OTHERS FOLLOW WE confidently make the assertion that for the same price and class car there is nothing on the market that can- equal the cars we represent either for grace ful appearance, strength or durability under high speed. It is very easy to give rec ords of short sprints of speed, but the average buyer does not desire a racing car, so the field trials of, the racing cars of any certain manufacture cannot be taken as a cri terion of superiority of this same company's stock cars over those of any other manu facturer. As proof of ,, the superiority of the Chalmers-Detroit and Hudson Cars .over all others in their class we refer you. to the report of the Vanderbilt Cup races at Garden City, L. L, as given by the November number of the Motor Age, a most relia ble authority of the motor world. Nbver in the history of the Vanderbilt cup race hasthere been such a depletion in the ru ;riest part also is that the lack of finishers was not duo to long tire delays in the majority 'auks of the contestants. The striipst part also is that the lack of finishers was not duo to long tire delays in the majority of tho cases, but to mechan ical difficulties alone. In proportion to their numbers tho ljjttle fellows, headed by Joe Matson in tho Chalmers, made the best showing. Four of them finished and five of the six starters were running on the ninth lap. Comparo this with tho showing made by the big cars as well as that made by the cars in the Wheatley Hills sweepstakes. Two cars finished and five were running at the finish. Compare the results of the former cup races and wo find that the number of those who fell by tho wayside is almost as great as the number that went by tho board in the first of these classics in 1904. In other words, but 29 per cent of the cars .were in running at the end of the race today. In former Vanderbilt races these percentages of cars still running are as fol lows: 1904, 28: 1905, 30; 190, 83: 1908, 53. This almost would seem to prove that the racing car lias depreciated. In reality it m-ovps tbnt rlin KfnrV nnv dncR show ut) its weaknesses under the strenuous test of racing. Sinco these weaknesses are in the construction of a 8tock doshrn thcor correction must be a definite gainer to the buyer. In the former races the cars'twere of special type constructed for racing only, usuall y built almost i circumstances, therefore, the showing made by the three winners, Chalmers, JWarmon and Alco, and also the rtirs winch they defeated should put them o a'high Hudson "20" makes fastest lap mailt, running the entire race without a stop. This Is what the Motor Age says of the Hudson "20's" performance in the race for the Massapequa cup: "The fastest lap In tills raco was the second of the Hudson, tho time for which was given out as 11:10, which means an average of 67.0 miles per hour. Matson drove a conservative race, and a very consistent one. There were only 42 seconds variation In his ten laps. His fourth was the fastest, when he made the circuit In 12:28, or at a pace of 60.8 miles per hour. His first two laps were about the slowest and as the re sult ho started In second place, held It In the second lap and took tho load in the third lap, holding it until the finish. He ran tho complete raco without a stop." and not a special racing car, egardless of cost. Under pedestal of Buporiority.
