The Wesleyan Football Game-Yacht
 Club Regatta aud other Items of In-
 terest on the Campus.
 Yale met Wesleyan on the football field for the second time this year yesterday.
 Owing to the closeness of the previous game, which Yale won by is points to Wes- leyan's O. and inasmuch as this was the first opportunity given to see the eleven play on their home grounds, there was an unusually large and enthusiastic crowd present.
 The ball was kicked off promptly at 3 o'clock and was immediately carried down towards Wesleyan's goal.
 Hutchinson, Wesleyan's back, secured the ball and was on the point of returning 1t when he was neatly tackled by Corwln. Woodruff soon after made the first touch dow h for Yale and Watkinson kicked goal. Play had scarcely begun again before Beech CT secured the ball and slipped through the Wesleyan men and scored the second touch down for Yale. A goal was secured from this also.
 The rest of the firsi half was but little more than repetition, Yale gradually in- creasing her score to 32. Just before time was called Blaine, the captain of the Wesley all team, had the side of his head cut open making a painful wound, which obliged him
 
 In the second half Yale changed her tao tics somewhat and relied principally on the strong kicking of Watkinson, who kicked two very pretty goals from the field. During this forty five minutes 36 points were scored, leaving the final score: Yale 6S, Wesleyan 0.
 The features of the game were the playing of the end rushers, Corwin and Wallace, the kicking of Watkinson, and the brilliant run ming and dodging of Crawford. Burke only had two balls come to him during the en- tire game. The best work for Wesleyan was done by Hutchinson, who kicked well and tackled admirably and saved many a touch down for Wesleyan.
 The result of the game is especially grat;- flying to all Yale men and shows that the men have trained faithfully and that they bear in mind the importance Of their coming contest with Princeton. After the game Richards, the captain of last years eleven, spoke to the men, giving them many valua- ble hints and pointing out the weak places in their method of playing the game.
 The elevens were as follows:
 Wesleyan-Grifith fright end), Fish, Pike, Wells (center), Blaine (captain), Gordon, Hawkins Qeft end), rushers; smith, quar- ter-back; Manchester and Hamlin, half backs; Hutchinson, back.
 Yale-Corwin 'S7 fright end), Hamlin 'S7 S., Woodruff 'S9, Peters 'S6 (center-cap tain), Buchanan 'S9, Gill '89, Wallace '9S Qeft end), rushers; Beecher 'SS, quarter back; Crawford 'So ana WaLklnson oS, nall backs.
 The referee was student in the Boston School of Technology.
 The date of the fail regatta of the yacht club has been changed to Saturday, October 31.
 There were many expressions of deep re pret at the unfortunate accident to Captain Cook expressed on the campus yesterday. He was, perhaps, better known than any other alumnus to the under graduates who remember with pride and gratitude his great services to boating at Yale
