The Army-Yale game at West Point on October 19, 1912, drew large crowds, and this glass negative records the day as the Bain News Service saw it. The New York agency sold news pictures to newspapers, and its photographers worked quickly so editors could use images in the next day's editions. The George Grantham Bain Collection at the Library of Congress preserves many such plates from the 1900s and 1910s, which document sports, politics and daily life. Its title comes from unverified data supplied by the agency, so treat the specific details with some care.
