for the touchdown that tied the score Hoben's Judgment seemed less foolish and the expert opinion less expert from that point on Cox's dropktek sent Yale ahead 7 to 6 It wss just after Yale's next kickoff that Wittmer fumbled close to his goal allowing Quarrler the touchdown that didn't count When Princeton got the ball back on the mutual offside ruling there was short buck and a forward pass
