(Special to The Evening World.) NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 13,—The members of the Yale football team took @ long carriage ride into the country yebterday, and it was at once rumored that eome of the team were on edge It was necessary to keep them away from the football field part of ‘the time in order to keep them in con- dition. Trajner Mike Murphy denied this ru- mor, and declared that a Yale team ‘Was never in better condition physicaily except for some slight effects of re- gent injuries in the cases of Bloomer. * Hogan, Metcalf, Owsley and Rockwell.

A more complete Surprise could not have been sprung on Princetonians at this time, for should Miller, the regular full-back, be injured in the early part of the game, old Naswau's chances of winning will be greatly lessened, Had the faculty committee sprung this surprise earlier in the eeason, be- fore the team had learned to depend on McClave's services, the outlook would not have been serious, but to let such a blow fall just three days before the final game does not seem right.

Several good preliminaries preceded the ptar event, the best being the semi- wind up, in which Jimmie Devine knocked out Willle Diddles, in the second round. McGovern and Beebe both entered the ring In splendid shame, but the Brooklyn boy showed up in the better form and he handled himself in a manner that adda credit to the McGovern house- hold. Hughey has been training under the care of Willie IMtzgerald for the past three weeks, and judging from the form he showed Inst night he ts now strong and clever enough to beat any of the feather-weights in this city. Hughey Started Well, At the call of time Hughey opened the ball by planting two lefts in Beebe's face, and in a few seconds dropped him with a right-hand swing on the jaw. Beebe came back wab- bling and was very tired at the bell. DE WITT SENDING THE BALL GOALWARD.
