The U. of M. eleven was defeated in the game of football with Harvard, placed on the Soldiers' Field at Cambridge last Satnrday. Harvard put the strougest men they had in for the garne and playêd it for all there was in it. But for the faot of a raiuy day the home team are very certain they could have won the game and changed the score, 4 . fco 0, arouud from defeat to victory. The game was won by the Boston team in the first minute of the second half, when Bloomingston caught a kiok-off ' and was downed on the twenty yard ( line. He punted.tbe ball was blooked, and bonnded back of the goal line and ' Donald feil on it. Goal failed to be kicked and the only score of tiae gatue had teen made on a fluke. The first half was 35 minutes long, bnt the last half had to be called on account of darkness at the end of 20 minutes. The result was receiverl here without grnmbling ou the part of the students, and they believed that their team had done the best they conld and were proud of the small score made againat rhem.after so long a journey and without a Michigan orowd behind thetn. The next game occurs tomorrow when the boys play Perdue, from whom the ' Varsity has won one game and to whom it has lost one.
