Theat was the marching song of the Yale thousands as they gathered @round Yale Bow! this afternoon. In spite of the overwhelming confidence of the visiting Tigers, Yale wasn't lacking In the good old Yale fighting spirit. There was no sign of despondency in New Haven. AN along the line of the march out Chapel Street thousands of blue fags tered, Every house had its Yale banner fluttering from the flag pole. Yale Biue was everywhere. Yet the Orange and Black showed, too, es- «clally in pennants flying from thou- ends of autos that rolled into New Viaven over the roads from the south Sixty-one thousand people saw this and many thousands of these came by auto. In fact, so many took the gasoline route that the long special trains from New York left the Grand Central only half filled. 56,000 TICKETS SOLD LONG BE- FORE GAME STARTED. Fifty-five thousand tickets were #o'd in advance. he remaining six thousand were put on le at the entrance gates, They were snapped up in the first rush, which came at 1 o'clock. At that hour thousands of Machines were parked in the flelds « vund the Bowl, The street cars ‘were already beginning to craw! out with every seat filled and people standing on the running boards, ‘Thousands stood massed at the en- trance gates, patiently wating for bowl the scene was one long to be remembered. Over- bead was a sky of turquoise blue. ‘There wasn't a cloud in sight. Only along the horizon was there the slightest trace of autumnal haze, North and east rose the great rocky cliffs famous in New England history fas the hiding place of the Regicides. In the clear, bracing alr the cliffs scemed only a hundred yards away, instead of miles. A sharp northwest wind blew, mak- ing tho great Yale and Princeton ban- nora stand straight out and snap merrily, With the opening of the gates came the first rush of spectators, Inside the huge bowl the terraced sides are covered with wooden seats. The front vows are varnished--those sloping up to the top are gray. At first the newly arrived specta- torm were scattered through the wide flung stands in lovely little groups, mere specks of black in the gray ex- panne, But soon solid streams came pouring through the scores of tunnel- mouths opening into the stands, ‘The color of the bow! slowly changed, Ite desert gray became a_ great, twas a long Yai mov ne, Muttering bed of Nght blue and orange on a background of ¥ On the west bank were thousands of white cotton handkerchiefs tied the back of the seats, ready for use by the rooters, The handkerchiefs were arranged fo that when waved they id form a huge Y-A-L-B me Plainly discernible from the Princeton rooters' section across the to wor © Come Out On Meld At 1.20 a cheer suddenly swept the bowl The Tigers, all in molesikins and black and yellow sweaters and stockings, came out through a black | tunnel entrance from rooms.

A few minutes of action and the Tigers trotted off again and they were ready for their first game in the bowl. A line of long blue megaphones decorated the space below tho Yale| stands.

How Tiger and Yale Teams Line Up, Man Against Man Perfect Control in Wrist Muscles Is Main Thing In Billiards, Says Hoppe Good Eye for Measuring Dis- tance and Speed Is Also Necessary — Youthful Cham- pion Considers Draw Shot the Most Valuable to Player. —— By Bozeman Bulger. CCORDING to Willie Hoppe, the A wizard of all wizards at bill- fards, the difference between a good player and a bad player is the difference In control of the more dell- cate muscles of the wrist “Of course,” says Hoppe, “a man must have a perfect eye for measur- ing distance and speed, but nearly all players out of the shortstop class have that. The main thing ts the muscular control in the wrist. “Ll tell you, though, why @ lot of our expert players lose matches,” sald Jack Doyle, who is not so modest, and right here is probably the secret of Hoppe’s many victories, ‘They get ca ess. All of the good players have about the same form, but most of them have a tendency to grow care- less on easy shots, I have seen doz- ens of important matcnes lost just that way. Hoppe noticed that when fa kid, and has made a point of never taking a shot easy if the balls are but two inches apart. He changes hig ‘stance’ on every shot, even if the balls do not move more than one- quarter of an inch. Very few other players do that, and lose through Carelessmess Hoppe agreed with this, ‘That study of being careful has been tis method of winning matches, but In the plain matter of skill he admits that ho doesn't know just why he is a better billiard player than anybody else, the game ever “I have been playin since I can remember, Te may have a lot to do with it, but there are any number of players who have been doing the same thing. Yes, and the first thing you know, one of these youngsters will come along and beat me." Hoppe, still a young man, is just as modest about his continued success at the game of billiards as he was ten years ago, when he came back from France after winning the champion- ship from Vignaux, At that time he was just out of knee pants and was just getting accustomed to playing from the floor instead of standing on BARTFIELD BEATEN BY MIKE O’DOWD IN ST.
