The mess outfit issued to troops and

These plates are too shallow to use
comfortably on board ship SO each man

round tin plate of more than an inch

keep 1t or throw 1t away.

Many Changes Made in

Practice.

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 7.-Yale de-
feated Bates College this afternoon, by
the SCORE Of 2S to O. in well-played game
OF foot ball. Twenty-Five of the points
were rolled up in the first half of 20 min
utes In this half the play was marked
by the excellent running of the Yale
backs. Mcbride, Sharpe and Adams. The
second half was more given to kicking.
Capt Mcbride, who played for the first
time this season in a game, gave a fine
exhibition Of line bucking. Sharpe did
most of the punting for Yale For Bates,
Hunt at full back, in the second half, did
excellsnt work in punting. Quarter back
Purinton, for the visitors, did some very
clever tackling notably kiefer in the
frequently as the game afforded good OPP
portunity for practice. The game showed
steady development at Yale. The line-up

SUBSTITUTES WIN EASILY.
Harvard's Line Is Weak But Backs
Play Fast Ball.

Cambridge, Oct. Harvard won an
EASY victory from Wesleyan today
with an eleven composed largely Of
substitutes. 1t was expected Wesleyan
would have made much better fight
than she did. Indeed Harvard 81 score
was due more to the splendid individ-
na1 playing Of the half backs than to
any superiority in team work. The
Wesleyan team played far better foot
ball than any team that has played
against Harvard this season.
Hartzell, the right half back, besides
some steady punting, made several
brilliant runs When sent against Har-
wards weak tackles, he rarely failed
to make his distance. The Harvard de-
Tense was undeniably weak. Time after
time long gains were made through the
line by the Wesleyan backs until only
one man stood between them and a
touchdown. The only fast playing on
defense was done by Boat, who wag
the one strong spot in the crimson line.
The rest Of the line, almost all substi-
tues, played poorly.
TheNfrst touchdown was scored by
HARVARD almost at the opening of the
game. Afterwards careful punting by
Halloweli gave Wesleyan the ball on
her own FIVE yard Line. Hartzell att
tempted to punt, but Burden caught
him before he could kick the ball out
from over the line, and Wesleyan was
formed to q safety. Kendall scored
again this half, aided by Parkers
rushing, and two off-side plays by
Wesleyan. One touchdown was scored
the next half by Parker, after a long
run by Ellis. At times Wesleyan made
sharp brace to score. but lost the ball
on fumbles or downs. The nna-un.
