To an impartial observer it looks as though Yale was just a little inclined to "crawl" in regard to the Princeton game. We believe the understanding was, that in case Princeton should not be allowed by the faculty to play in New York on thanksgiving Day the game should take place in New Haven. Princeton failed to get the desired permission, but is allowed to play on the Polo Grounds, New York, next Saturday. Now Yale says the agreement has been broken, and they are bound to have the game at New Haven. There is no doubt that, acting strictly by the letters of the agreement, Yale has the right of the question, yet what possible difference it can make to Yale whether they play in New York on Thanksgiving or four or five days earlier than that, no one, except themselves, is able to see. If Yale persists in her course, it will look as though it was fear of Princeton rather than support of a great principle which influences such action.
