Against the heavier linemen of the New Englanders. the Rochester line in one burst of power furnished enougn strength to enable Zornow to score a touchdown after a march from the 23-yard line, all gains being on short thrusts through the forward wall. The point after touchdown was owarded when Wesleyan was found off-side on the kick. IF Calling 'Em Right With ALBERT W.

KEANE, Sports Editor PSYCHOLOGY played with Yale yesterday afternoon in the place of Bruce Caldwell and psychology, a potent factor In victory and defeat In every phase of life, did its part in eliminating the ferocious and hitherto undefeated and untied Princeton Tigers from all possibility of being stituted Hammersley. Garvey did not return to the lineup. The Blue then held Princeton and forced Lowry to kick to Hoben, who getting the ball on the Tigers' 46 yard line ran it back to the 31 yard marker. Two incomplete forward passes closed this period. Jammed with football thrills.

In It Yale made seven first downs to two for the Tigers, completed three out of six forward pusses and after the first three minutes ol the session kept all the play between the Princeton 40 yard line and tij goal. The Turn In the Tide. The third quarter also had a little edge for Yale, the Tgcrs falling to Invade the El territory further than the 35 yard line and getting there but once, Princeton eecmed to be fifty. ng sate, believing they had enough tie-fsnslve itrength to hold the 6 to 0 lead earned in the first half. It was In this period that Charltsworth Intercepted two Princeton aerials and Miles the smart back of the Jersey team, killed a possible Yale ecor.ng chance by Intercepting on his own 28-yard line a forward hurled over lh line of scrimmage by Hoben.

He ran It back five Each eleven played for the breaks, Yale punting three times and Pr.nceton twice but the kicks were handled cleanly. But as colorful and as thriving as the game had been in the second u.id third quarters It did not compurc with the wonderful Yale iBly In the final period. The turn In the tide really started th Tigers were penal. zed IS yards for holding on the Ell 42-yard line. This forced the punt which Hoben gathered In on his ten yard line am ran back ten yards.

Hammcreley and Decker, In three plays carried the ball to the 38-yard line and hre Yale was held a gain only to have the Hoben-Scott forward pass combination account for 17 yards and first down on the Princeton 45-yard line. Yale Prnallzed. Decker added two yards to the Yule march and then ft penalty for holding set the Blue back 15 yards and set the stage for two pretty overhead heaves. The first was from Hoben to Quarrler, the Blue line shifting In order that the tackle might be eligible to receive the pass. It covered 19 yards but still left the Ells with seven yards to gain, fourth down.

litre Hoben gambled with the gan'ie at stake. A punt might have beeu blocked and converted into a Princeton touchdown; a good kick would cross the Tigers' goal line and result In thi ball going to Princeton on the 20-yaid line. So he called for the aerial, one of the balloon type, with Flshwlck to do the receiving. Running tack after getting the snap-back from Charlesworth, Hoben ducked past an onrushlng Princeton man and threw the ball high and far. Victory In Sight.

Th; pigskin sailed through the air for 32 yards, cleared the Princeton secondary detente and came down Into Flshwlck's arms as he was flashing over the 20-yard stripe. He ran for the touchdown. Then Cox kicked the goal. That wai thrill enough for one game but the Blue, tasting triumph, could not be checked and In lesa than three minute? had scored the touchdown whlca was disallowed and In less than three minutes again had smashed Its way to the final score. Hamuier.iy taking the ball across and Cox again converting the point.

Wlttmer nig (iiiiner. Statistics of the game show that on paper the Tigers more than held their own In offensive work, Princeton making 17 first downs aganlst 12 for the Blue. Yale completed six forward passes, which followed by runs, gained 122 yards, while the Tigers, completing ten out of 22. gained 99 yards In this manner. Yale suffered the most from penalties, the New Haven team losing 73 yards to 85 for the Jungle Cats.

The ball handling was exceptionally sure. Princeton fumbled twice, once recovering Its own fumble. Yale also fumbled once but recovered. Three passes were Intercepted, two by Charles-worth and one by Miles. From scrimmage alone the Tigers gained 187 yards against 106 for the Ells.

Yale decidedly outklcked the Tigers averaging ten yards or more. Hoben's runbark ol kicks was also better than that ol Baruch or Strublng.

12. AP.) A Washington Juggernaut today crushed the University of Calof'rnia's Golden bears. 8-0. in a thrilling battle that kept 40.000 spectators In doubt unit! the final un. Struggling on a muddy field, the tw powerful elevens seesawed up and dowi the field In a game ae fiercely tough as any ever witnessed here.

By Its victory. Washington remalntc In the Pacific Coast championship rao since It has lost but one game that to Stanford that made his Hartforc. friends proud of hnn, throwing back Army assaults and comirig out of the line on the olfenso to head the Notre Dame interference. Except for Cagle's touchdown dash the two attacks were subservient, to the defense throughout the first period. The Army did not get any closer than the Notre Dame 45-yard line and the Hoosiers could penetrate only the Soldiers' 40-yard mark.

Army Gels Break. The Army had a real break In the second period, but a fighting defense turned the soldiers back. It was some time after Cagle's first touchdown that this same young man clutched a Hoosier forward pass almost out ct Christy Flanagan's hands on the Notre Dame 22 yard line. He ran eight yards further on before he was brought down. But then' three drives failed to net more-than a few yards and Landon, a specialty placement kicker was rushed In to try for three points.

His attempt from the Notre Dame 18 yard line was a sorry failure. Taking a punt near mldfleld a little later tre Army attack gathered Itself for a march that reached the Notre Dame 13 yard line, chiefly through two sweeping end runs by Emmet O'Don-nell who had substituted for Landon. But Murrell was thrown for a 12 yard loss on another wide sweep. On the next play Hutchinson threw a perfect forward pass to Bretonnel, an end, who was brought down Just two yards short of the Irish goal line. The pass was called back, though, because an Army man had been off side.

The same pass was tried again, but the ball fell to the ground out of reach, and it was Notre Dame's ball. Then started a Notre Dame offense that (provided the longest march made by either team during the game. From their own 20-yard line the Rockmen paraded almost 75 yards down the field, but they were stopped short of a score. A long forward pass than Flanagan threw to Hurlburt, a 14-yard run by Riley and a lateral paas. Riley to Flaaagan, were the chief contributing faotors In that long march.

When within striking distance two plunges were thrown back by the Army line and then two forward passes Just escaped the desperately clutching fingers of Flanagan, and Notre Dame lost the ball. The third period, too, was full of defensive excellence Aftc that 60 y-ird run for a touchdown Nave on an intercepted pass the teams settled down to the bone-crushing type ol football. Army Misses Chance. The Army missed one grand chance and so did the Westerners. Not long after Nave's long run Christy F.anagan fumbled Just when It looked as if Notre Dame was going somewhere, and Born, the Army end, fell on the ball near mid field.

A flfteen-ya'd run around the Hoosier left end and two line rams put the ball on the Notre Dame 33 yard line, but there the defending line braced and Army had to kick. That was the closest the Army came to scoring twice in the third period. Notre Dame did not get any farther aTlead than its own 42 yard line so good was the soldier forwa wall. A glorious goal-line stand made by Notre Dame Was one of the high spots of the fourth period. Niemlo tried a pass from his own 28 yard line, but Arthur Meehan, who had replaced Nave at quarterback for the Army.

Intercepted it and dashed 34 yards down the field to Notre Dame's eight yard line. Hutchinson picked up two yards In two tries and then Cagle rammed Into the middle of the Notre Dame line. When the pack was uncovered the ball was two yards short of the last white line. It was fourth down and Meehan directed his last play outside the Notre Dame right end with Cagle carrying the ball. The Hoosier wingman and tackle were cleaned out.

but the backs came swooping up to help their line and Cagle was buried beneath three gieen perseya Just inches short of the goal. Nlemic punted out and then a few minutes later came the Hutchinson to Cagle forward pass that brought about the third and last Army touchdown. Fights to End. In the last two minutes of the game a short Army punt gave Notre Dame the ball 36 yards from the Army goal line. Four times N.emlc let drive with forward passes and two of them were caught by Poliskl, bringing the ball to the Army three yard line Just as the game ended.
