  Bates Eleven Easy For Ellis Who Open With 488-O Victory NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. 23.-Yale was better than Bates College this afternoon by seven touchdowns and six goals from touchdowns, as the final score stood 48 to 0. One of the largest crowds on record for an opening game was on hand to-day. 1t was estimated that over 10000 spectators paid admission despite the warm weather. which must have bothered the Maine contingent considerably. Every one of the eleven Yale men that Captain Jordan led on to the field for the first kickoff played in either the Princeton or Harvard team last year. The Yale line outweghed Bates man for man, with the opposing back fields about the same weight. Both teams seemed content to use straight line plays, and the only open work was a few passes and runs from kick formaton, which the Ellis used late in the game. Kelly’s 5O-yard broken field run ming and a 40-yard pass from Neidlinger to Eddy were the features of the game. Rutsky, for the visitors, displayed some nice defensive work in | breaking up several Yale forward passes. Bates was unable to earn n single first down against the Blue line, while the Yale backs slashed the tackles for from three TO seven yards whenever called on. Numerous otf-side penalties on both teams slowed the game up. Practically every player on the Yale varsity squad got into the fracas before the final period. There were no injuries, but Fellow, regular back on Bates, was stricken with indigestion just before the kickoff and was forced to retire. The Imam.
