YALE W0NFR0M B0STONA.A.
THE BOSTON ELEVEN DEFEATED BY
ASCORE or 1910.

Largest Attendance at Yale Field This
Season Watched the Game-Alport'sF Fine
Showing Boston Weak In the Line--The
Yale Eleven Getting into Good Shape for
the Game With the Tigers.
Three thousand people witnessed the
game of football played at Yale field
yesterday between the Yale Varsity
and the Boston Athletic club teams
This was the largest attendance at the
field this season. Notwithstanding the
apprehensions of Yale sympathizers the
Bostonians did not score, and at no
time during the game did they come
within exciting distance of the Yale
goal, the nearest approach being to the
thirty five yard line. The Boston Ath-
letic association men made inexcusable
fumhles throughout the game, and
failed at critical times to hold Yale's
rush line. Yale, on the other hand,
lost considerable ground for off-side
play. Boston also came in for penal
ties for this offence.
The score and game are very encour-
aging to those who are watching the
development of the Yale team, consid-
ering the fact that Captain Murphy did
not play. Airport played star game.
His work was full of life, and was
aggressive, He hit up the line for val
liable ground, and was also in at the
| front for gains, wherever they were
! possible, His play was highly COM
mended by all experts of theSgame who
watched from the side lines, and it is
| thought that he has practically won a
! place on the team which will play
| Princeton. Goodwin came in for a good
share of the honors of the game He
is wiry and speedy, and is one of the
| best sprinters ON the team. Although
it is thought by some that he would be
unable to stand hard game, his work
would count for much while he was in,
and his place could be taken by Van
/ Every, who is a good 7econd to him,
Bass, Mills Flncke and Rogers also
showed UP in good form yesterday and
| althogether the Yale team is probably
not in so weak 9. condition as one
! reports which have gone out and will
make the Tigers play the fastest and
I hardest kind of hall to win a victory
! for old Nassau.
