Summing it all up, Yale made the mistake in not putting fresh backs in in the second half until it was too late, Here was where Princeton showed su- perior genoralship. When one of her men was worn out another man took his place, and it was a fresh team all the time that was bucking Old Eli, Rafferty, and Shevitn, and Hogan, by their exertions in the first half, were Uttle better than dead men in. the second, and even men only half as good as they are ordinarily would probably have done better work Yale 1s ahead of Princeton in handling kicks.

But that work. ing one man as the butt end of a dash at Princeton's line told on them in the second half. ‘They were tired and worn out then, They showed nothing like they did in the first half, Only their bulldog courage and determination helped them to make the show they did.

CORBETT AND FITZ, EX-CHAMPIONS, WHO ARE TO HAVE CORBETT AND FITZ ARE 10 MEET IN THE RING AGAIN Match Between Two Ex-Champions Arranged by James Coffroth, of the Yosemite A. C., Is to Be Decided Next May. BY KNOCKOUT. AMPS J. CORBETT and Robert Fitzsimmons, two ex-heavy-weight weight champions of the world, are to meet in a twenty-round battle next May before the Yosemite Athletic Club, of San Francisco, Cal. The Yosemite A. C., which is the premier boxing club of ‘Frisco, is the organization which so successfully conducted the championship battle last August betaveen Jim Jeffries and Corbett. FITZ MUST BEAT GARDNER FIRST. c ‘The meeting between Corbett and Fitzsimmons is dependent upon Fitz's battle with George Gardner, which takes place next week in ‘Frisco, for the light-heavy-weight championship of the world. Fitzsimmons must score a victory over Gardner or the Corbett match will go a glimmering. To Jim Cofforth, the matchmaker and manager of the Yosemite Club, the ,brainiest fight promoter of the Golden Gate, a student in the boxing club managing line of Jim Kennedy’s, Gotham’s leadinr promoter of sport- {ng events, will belong the credit of bringing Corbet! and Fitzsimmons to- gether for this, their second fight CORBETT A GOOD DRAWING CARN. When Cofforth saw what a wonderful success, from a financial stand- point, the Jeffries-Corbett match was, and realized that much of this suc-; cess was due to the immense popularity of the ex-champion, he started immediately to figure on another battle {n which Corbett would figure as a principal. Just as this time, owing to Fitzsimmon’s pronounced friendship for Jeffries, the old time jealousy and ill-feeling between Corbett and found into flame. They started growling at each other like a couple of Boston bulls chained to opposite sides of a pit. Here was Coffroth's opportunity. He simply thad to sit back and await developments. ‘Yhiags came his way with a rush It was no time before Fitz and Corbett were dealing et challenges galore and plastering each other with buckets of mud. Corbett, on his way East, left a trail of adjectives tacked to “Lanky Robert's” name that tinged the atmosphere a deep, dark blue, AND SO THE WORDY WAR WENT ON. Fitz was a “decrepit old man, a “has been” of the worst description, a “broken down old stiff; Corbett “couldn't fight a lick and never could “IT can knock you into next week with one hand,” said Fitz. “Wait a year and I'll fight you,” was Corbett’s reply. “Iam booked up for the winter in the show houses and cannot afford to cancel my cngage~ ments simply to satisfy an old has been.” Fitz boiled up to 960. “T'll fight you to-morrow,” was his answer. week; in a month; any time soit’s right away. head off in Carson City, and I'll do it again.” MATCHMAKER’S TIME T,0 GET BUSY. (Robert, by the way, aidn’t say “‘head”—he said “‘ead.” He has such a cute little way with him, has Bobby, of swallowing every yo bumps into.) + But that’s another story. Here was the time for Coffroth to gei into the game in \roper style, Properly festooned word pictures of immense bundles 0’ twenty-dollar gold pieces, of $52,000 gates and the unbounded satsifactim. of beating a chap's head off who you don’t like—and getting well paid for it, as per. chance having your wounded feelings patched up with huge bunches of coin should you gather in the wrong end of the physical argument—soon did the trick. GARDNER NOT LIKELY TO SPOIL IT, It was all over /but the shouting. They fight next May, providing, of course, Mr, George Gardner doesn’t hand Mr. Fitzsimmons a lullabye potion. And take a tip right now that Bob Fitzsimmons, years and all, isn't Jack Root. - The “ of Bath Beach should come home on the bit. Then will probably come the arranging of details for the meeting with Corbett. TOO EARLY TO ANNOUNCE MATCH. It's hardly likely that this has been done. If it has Fitz and Corbett and Coffroth are probably the only ones who can enlighten one on the sub-~ ject, and it’s dollars to bad apples they won't turn on the caicium, In fact, it’s good betting they will all deny that the match has been practically made. All right, let 'em do so. But, nevertheless, one night next May these two wonderful gladiators, stripped for action, will steal out of their corners amid tha shouts of 20,000 modern Romans, and tell that long ago tale of Carson City over again, or mayhap, reverse the lens and telling it backwards, give to Corbett a long delayed revenge. WHAT A FIGHT IT SHOULD BE. It should be a great fight; one worth going a gow deal further than ‘Frisco to see. Corbett, in the wonderful battle he put up with Jeffries, showed he ts “Yes, to-morrow; next knoked your blooming HART TONIGHT Joe Choynski vs. Marvin Hart. That's the bill over in Philadelphia to-night. Another case of the clever boxer versus the fighter. Choynski !s regarded as one of the cleverest boxers in the world, and art can slug for fair with the best of them. HBegides, Hart {s one of tl gamest “pugs that ever climbed through tHe ropes. They are scheduled to go six rounds before the Washing- tor, Sporting Club. ‘The bout should be one of the dest between men of their size and Mslght witnessed in the Quaker City in a long time. Both are aggressive. Their styles are interesting. A knockout will net be surprising, for both are noted for their ability to deliver such things.
