Yale's long-running rivalry with Princeton gives this 1911 photograph its context: a single 65-yard run by a player named White, captured in a print that freezes one play from a game between two of the era's strongest college programs. In the early 1900s, football was rough and largely unprotected, and the sport was under pressure to change after serious injuries and deaths. The Yale-Princeton games drew large crowds and heavy press coverage, so images like this one helped shape how the public saw the college game.
