Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Yale Bowl, stating that it "is home to Yale University's football team (American football) in New Haven, Connecticut." Notes that "what makes the Yale Bowl unique is that it was one of the largest structures of its kind in the world at the time it was built." States that "the field surface is constructed in the form of a turtle back and its gradient has not been changed since 1914...a testimonial to the care and attention it has received." |
