Ruggers Top Princeton

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

It took the Rugby Club two full games and half of another to find a combination that would beat Princeton. They finally hit upon it in the second half of Saturday's contest in New Jersey, when the team came up with two tries to beat the Tigers, 6 to 0.

With this victory the ruggers closed their season boasting a record of five wins, one loss, and four ties. However, the Big Three title for this season will never be decided because Harvard and Yale are not scheduled to play. Both have beaten Princeton.

Colin McIntyre and John Carey were the men who accounted for the Crimson's six points. McIntyre took a shovel pass from Lew Travis after the latter had snared a loose ball on the Princeton five yard line, and bucked over with three Tigers hanging on.

John Carey made the most spectacular play of the day when he broke through to block a Princeton punt and then fall on the ball in the end zone.

Two new men took part in the game, Len Wheeler and Tom Nuzem. Wheeler was with the team in Bermuda but received a kick in the head in one of the Rugby Week games. Nuzen took the place of Peter Manning-Smith and did and excellent job.

A healthy House Party crowd of 300 took advantage of the balmy climate of Princeton, N. J., and sat on the sidelines to observer the game.
