S~PRINGFIELD. Mass, Nov. 20. = There
were 10000 people on Hampton Park this
afternoon to see Yale defeat Harvard by a
score of 6 to o in the closest and most brill

played with each other. 1t was a great
game and a fine sight, but even a finer was
the vast throng that filled the four great
grand-stands that completely encircled the
field. The Yale sympathIZers were all
seated on the west side of the long field and
the Harvard men had the east stand. which
had been built Just high nough for the oc-
cupants of the long line of tally-hos to look
over the top. So the two colleges. for
every one was there. sat confronting each
other for two hours, giving. their yells in
turn and at times singing with such a full
volume of sound as was was never heard
before in quiet Springfield.
1t was a kicking game throughout, most
of the long punting being done by the full
backs Mcbride and Trafford. Yale had the
kickoff. but the ball was back in her ter
ritory in short order. and there 1T stayed
for fully twO-thirds of the first half. Har-
ward was setting the pace. and the way in
which she stood up to her old opponents
from the start was something of q revela-
ton to the spectators But it was evident
that the two teams We're very evenly
matched when the end of the first twenty
minutes found them still struggling in
Yale's ground. not far from the center. The
work of the next ten minutes was a sue
cession of long punts and fierce but short
rushes, the chief incident being the dis
qualification of Hanson for smuggling.
Ferris was put ON in his place.
Stickney and Newell were also disqualified
in the course of the game, their places be-
ing taken by Blanchard and Heyworth.
The event of the first half was the fine run
by Wurtemburg to within o few yards of
the Harvard line. and the resulting touch
down and goal by McClung, which were
the game. Then the Yale side Of the
grounds was heard from. ond the boys in
blue sang and cheered all through the ten
minutes lntermission, which Immediately
followed the touchdown.
The second half ushered in a very differ
ent sly e of play. Yale had the floor, and
she began to crowd Harvard further and
further back. In fact. the fighting was all
done on Harvard ground, and only once
WAS the blue put upon its defense. The
agony was intense all the way through, for
Yale was now playing n phenomenal game,
and the wonderful rushing of Gill, Stagg,
McCluDg and Wurtemburg was making
itself felt. and the superior tackling of the
Yale men was beginning to count in earn
est. In team play, and falling on the ball
they were also superior, but the half-back

b. Traford helped to even things
up. The great contest of the
half. however, came at the end,
when McClung made a ina rush of thirty
yards. and took the ball so near the line
that another touchdown was probable,
when time was called. The score was 8 to

CRAwFORDsvILLE, Ind, Nov. GA very
close and interesting game of football was
played to-day on the Wabash College
campus between the elevens of Purdue and
Wabash. When the men came on the field
1T was apparent that Purdue had the adj
vantage in the size of their rushers, but
Wabash hoped to make up in science what
they lacked in weight. Time was called
at 2:l5 and Wabash, by good passing and
kicking. scored n touchdown in twenty,
minutes, but failed to kick q goal. The
ball vaeillated from one end of the field to
the other during the remainder of the first
Ealf, Purdue depending on her rushers, and
Wabash on her skill In tricks and punting.
Neither side scored during the remainder
