Work Description: 
Pictures 2-4 and 2-5 are nearly identical and are taken at the same time as 1-5. It looks as though a play is in progress in the football game where weird triangular upright goals are in use. Colorado lost 10-0. The building at the left is the 1898 part of the chemistry building, which was torn down in the summer of 1972. Behind it and to the right, the main gate to the athletic field appears to be a sliding gate that hangs, from an overhead horizontal rail. The east stands appear to be nearly full while the west stands may be crowded. Quite a few people are standing around the edge of the field. Four or five carriages are parked inside the fence while two ladies are seated in a high wagon looking over the fence. The wagon appears to be pulled by mules. To the right of the east stands three cows are grazing -approximately where the UMC bookstore is located. The four nearly identical houses are located approximately on the University Club parking lot while the houses at the far left are on the site of the College of Environmental Design. The square white house with four gables is on the site of the Music School. At the left one sees snow fence by the railroad grade (see 1-8). Two oil wells are visible, one in the left distance and one in the center - near Baseline and Broadway. The railroad grade is seen making a gentle "S" turn by haystacks as it heads south toward Marshall, which is the white blur near the horizon. In those days Boulder was a pleasant rural country town. The Nebraska game was played Saturday, Oct. 4, 1902.
