CHICAGO, Nov. 24.-1he football game
between the teams of the Boston and
Chicago Athletic associations was won
by the BOstOns today, they scoring
three touch-downs, two goals and one
safety. making Il total of eighteen
points. Chicago made two toucll-downs
and two goals, total of twelve points.
Ii was an interesting game, and when
IL was over the spectators wondered why
there was such close score. They had
seen the brawny men from Boston go
through the Chicago line again and
again as easily as they choose. They
had noticed the low tackling of the
Bostons which brought the runner down
every time, and the high tackling
OF the WeSterneTs that seldom blocked
the five-yard gang. The element OF
one-sidenesS was so apparent that
Chicago'S hackers lost heart early in the
game and practically conceded the
game to Boston before the first half
was over.
Heffelfinger and Sralwart Donnelly
were absent, br0ad-shouldered Lewis
was ruled off early in the game, aud
speedy Snake" Ames, a sick man,
played but the first half, so that Chi
cag0 had 4 crippled team to hne up
against the crack Bostonian aggrega-
ton. Victor Harding. Atwood and Raj
ferty played good football from first to
last, ana, considering the fact that he
had not dOnned canvas suit for two
years, George Harding put up remark
ably strong game.
Ii was ctlckney who took first honorS
for the home team, his running and
tackllng bringing out frequent cheers.
Little Crawford tackled well in the
second half, but had little to do in the
first half. The Boston backs all played
well. Anthony especially distinguished
himself, going through the Chicago
line, while Peters eud-Tunning was
noticeably fine. With the exception Of
two or three bad fumbles, the Boston
team betrayed no weak points. The
team work was excellent and the PLAYERS
did not kick" against decisions once.
Although Remington and Turkey be
came pugnacious occasionally, there
was very little Slugging, but great
deal OF rough play. Nearly every scrim-
mage stretched man on the ground,
but none were carried off the field.
Team work won the game, the rustling
tactics OF the "Beaneaters" crowding
the bal! toward the Chicago goal despite
the fine individual playing of the noted
college football men VITO made up the

Chicago won and chose the ball. When

Fillmore, Harvard man of IS, was

ton quarterback, acted as umpire.
Chicago started with an open wedge,
Harding breaking out Of the right,
where he was downed. Award got the
ball and carried it forward two yards,
and Ames punted we'll down the field
for thirty more. The Chicago men then
cot we'll back TO McNeer, and, with a
clean run, Stiekney made touchdown
after ten minutes play. Harking kicked
a goal, and the game stood to in
favor of Chicago.
"BOStOn'S first touchdown was gained
after some hot and rough work. An
thony finally got the ball on Chicago'S
eght-yard line and the bail was quickly
rushed down, Peters doing three of the
yards and Anthony the rest. First
touchdown for Boston at 2:35 O'clock.
McNeer kicked goal and the game was
6to6.
When play was resumed StIckney
was hurt and DELAYED the game for
few minutes. Then Lewis was ruled
off for kicking man who had him by
the throat while ne was trying to put
the ball into play. Sixteen minutes
more and Anthony scoreda touchdown,
McNeer easily kicking goal. Score,
Boston 12, Chicago 6. A few minutes
suffced to finish up the first half, neither
side scoring.
When they lined up for the second
half Ames retired, Thomas coming on
in his place. Boston'S superior team
work told now, and she had easy sailing
for the balance of the game.
Anthony got the ball over at
1922, and McNeer failed on a
very easy goal. Chicago next worked
the ball up to within one yard of Bos-
toms line ana, although Waters played
like demon, Stickney carried the ball
over but dropped it. A frantic scramble
was kicked and Chicago had made her
last score.
Harding was pushed over for a safety
by Bellfield at 3:44. Two points more
for Boston. and the score stood Is to IL
in her favor. Some hard playing fol-
lowed, and poor Peters at one time
had three men at his throat and AL
ward reaching for his hair. He went
