New Haven, Conn., March 14, 1913.--The Princeton affirmative team defeated the Yale negative team in the triangular debated in Woolsey Hall at New Haven this evening. The debate was the closest of the three simultaneous contests, the vote of the judges being two to one. The teams spoke in the following order: Princeton--A. S. Richardson '13, A. C. Williamson G.S., R. S. Rife G.S.; Yale--A. B. Greene '13, F. L. Daily '13, E. M. Porter '13.
