YALE WILL PLA V PRINCETON.THE MATCH Qs"tHE LATTER'S GROUNDS.

A PRINCE TON MAN FOR RKFEWCE-THK THANKSOIT-INO PAY HAME AHRANOrn.

Thc rrlnceton-Yale annual football game has been

foutfit on poller this year a little longer than usnal. Tho

graduates in this div, of tioth college*, who eontribttte

money ta thc support of thc various athletic organlra-tlons of these institutions and a-e desirous of

baring thc .game played, think: that lt ls about

time t<> end the farce and do a

little advertising In view of the fact that the game, Tf lt

takes place at all. 1 ill be. played to morrow. A* tho mat¬

ter ne*'stand* the Princeton men are firm In theilcn

fiction* that the game ought to be played nt Princeton on

Thanksghiug I»*y with a Princeton referee, while thc

Yale men aro equally certain the Polo Ground* should be

the place for the game. or. In fact, any Unto groundWhere money may be made, which necessary article theysay cannot be found In a " little country

town." Rut Yale offered as a compromise a

abort tims ano to play at Princeton

With e\ Captain Flank G. Peters as referee, or to play Ht

Btaton Island with Tracy Harris, a Princeton graduate,a* referee. Princeton refused fedb offers and held out

firmly for Jersey mud and a Jersey tuan for refeit*>.Th* controversy as to the place of the jeanie began In

this way It I* provided by the constitution of the Inter¬

collegiate Football league that the final game

between the two leading college* shall l»e playedet the Polo Grounds ou Thanksxiviiig Day. On this clause

Yale puts all her claims. But the Princeton faculty de¬

cided Mill In thc fall, by a vote of about three to one, that

tho foolhull player* of that college should play their

championship traine* hereafter on the ground of ono of

the two cotite-titig colleges. This decision distinctly gave

the Polo Grounds, or any other large public grounds, the

cold shoulder, and PtttRtotoa uicn think that

their foculty mcAn to abhlo by that decision.

Ifow on this very point Yale and Princeton men stronglydisagree. It appears that thc athletes from NewHaven

think that the Princeton students could influence their

faculty to revoke their decision. Tilts Imputation on their

faculty's ability u> abide by Its decision ls strongly resen¬

ted by the wearers of the orange and black.

But their strong point ts the fact that the

game was played at New-Haven last year

With a Yale graduate a* referee, Walter C. Camp, and

therefore according to erny principle of fair play the

game should be plavod at Princeton, ns the faculty's de-

Cision lliniU the (ci-oimds to New-Haven and Princeton

Yale men. however, assert that New Haven was chosen

last year simply to obllire PitoastMa. because at the

last moment h»r faculty Interposed and voted that

Princeton should not play that year on the Polo

Grounds. A* Yale had tho championship lt was proper

therefore that lue Jersey men should go to New-Haven, if

they wonted to play at all. Princeton had no alternative

and went ta New Haven with Uitnar, as Yale men rei*)!

lest, an! won the game. Now. that the Princeton

faculty has again placed an Interdict on the Polo

Grounds and Princeton has the coveted championflairs, she feels In a position ta remind Yale that uur foot¬

ball men went to New-Haven last year, and consequently.. what ls fair for one ls fair for another," and names

Princeton as the place for th great content. All this

ground ho.« been gone over since tho football conventionthat met at tho Fifth Avenue Hotel In Octoberdecided that MnesSea and Yale should play at

Princeton on Thanksgiving Day. Yale ls now attackingPrinceton's grounds and claiming that theyaie not tit lo

play on as they are " Jersey mud" after a rain storm. Au

old Yale football player said yesterday :
