The final game of foot-ball for the college championship resulted in a decisive victory for Yale, who consequently retains the championship for another year. The snow had been cleared off the field so that the grounds were in a very fair condition. Princeton won the toss, and selected the west end, from which a strong breeze was blowing, which materially aided her side. Peace kicked into touch at 2.45 P. M., and the game was started amidst great excitement and enthusiasm among the spectators, who had been waiting for an hour for the fun to begin. For the first twenty minutes the ball was kept upon Princeton's ground, and soon from a drop by Richards sailed over the bar, but the referee decided no goal, owing to bad tackling. Soon after Princeton was forced to make a safety, and for some time the ball hovered about her goal until Twombly made a magnificent run and passed the ball to Buck, who scored the first touchdown directly under the bar; amidst loud cheers Richards kicked a goal.

From the kick-off Haxall sent the ball far into Yale's ground, and as the blue wavered from the attack he soon secured a fair catch in dangerous proximity to her goal. The ball was placed and amidst frantic cheers from the Jerseymen Haxall scored the first goal for Princeton. Nothing more was scored in the first three-quarters by either side.

In the second three-quarters Yale in turn had the advantage of the wind, and by the good kicking of Richards the ball was soon forced near the Princeton goal. After several brilliant rushes by Hull, and in spite of the dogged resistance of Princeton, Tompkins carried the ball over the line and scored the second touchdown for Yale, from which Richards kicked the second goal. From the kick off Princeton gradually worked the ball through their opponent's line, and after a brilliant run Peace carried it over the line. Yale, however, disputed the touchdown on the ground that Peace lost his hold of the ball before touching it down, and the referee allowed their claim. Soon after Poe made the prettiest run of the game for Princeton, and carried the ball almost to Yale's line, but could score no point.

In spite of the desperate efforts of the Princeton men, Yale slowly forced the ball back to the centre of the field, where it remained till time was called. The teams were made up as follows:
