Michigan opened its pre-season training camp at Whitmore Lake, Michigan, on September 19, 1910. Coach Yost opined that the 1910 season would see a more open style of play under the new rules with reduced risk of injuries. Training camp began with light conditioning work, then progressed to "more strenuous labors." The squad began with 11 players at Whitmore Lake but grew larger as more players arrived over the two weeks. Halfback Joe Magidsohn arrived at Whitemore Lake ten days later but was in "splendid condition after hard summer's work." In late September, Yost announced that Shorty McMillan of Detroit would take over the quarterback spot held the prior year by Billy Wasmund.

As the work at Whitmore Lake concluded, the Detroit Free Press wrote that the team was "rounding into form rapidly" and looked "like a machine." The Free Press opined that the backfield showed plenty of speed, and the line appeared to be Michigan's strongest in years. Pre -season practice continued at Ferry Field during the first week of October.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Pre-season
On October 5, 1910, Michigan announced that Grover "Dutch" Herrington, regarded by Coach Yost as "one of the most promising backfield men he has found in several seasons", had suffered a broken bone in his right leg and would be unable to play during the 1910 season.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Case
Michigan opened its 1910 season at Ferry Field in a 3–3 tie with the team from Cleveland's Case Scientific School. The game was the 14th meeting between the two programs, and Michigan had won all 13 of the prior games by a combined score of 354 to 37. On the eve of the 1910 season opener against Case, Coach Yost expressed satisfaction with his team: "These boys are playing fine football. They are the best we have sent against Case in the past five years." The game was played in good weather before the largest opening day crowd in Michigan history.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Case
In the first quarter, Michigan received excellent field position after a Case punt from behind the goal line traveled only 31 yards. After advancing to the seven-yard line, right guard George M. Lawton place-kicked a field goal from the 20-yard line. In the second quarter, Case received excellent field position when Lawton punted from behind Michigan's goal line. Case's quarterback Goss made a fair catch at the 33-yard line. Heller kicked a field goal to tie the score.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Case
"For the first time in many years what had come to be regarded as a fixed festival here will be omitted in 1910, for Case, instead of submitting meekly to the annual licking, played Michigan to a standstill . . . This is all very lovely for the Clevelanders who consider the feat of tying the Yost team the event of their lives, but it's tough on Michigan which has become accustomed to whaling Case as an official and auspicious opening for the local football season."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Case

Michigan's starting lineup against Case was Daniels (left end), Edmunds (left tackle), Benbrook (left guard), Cole (center), Lawton (right guard), Wells (right tackle), Pattengill (right end), McMillan (quarterback), Magidsohn (left halfback), Green (right halfback), and Wenner (fullback).

The Detroit Free Press reported on the celebratory atmosphere in Columbus after the game:


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Ohio State
Seldom has such a demonstration been seen on Ohio field as was carried out by the O. S. U. rooters when the teams left the field after the final whistle. The band played, the rooters swarmed the field, hugged their mule mascot and went daffy in general. The town is in the hands of the celebrators tonight, the State contingent considering a tie score practically a victory for their team.

1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Syracuse
Joe Magidsohn scored two touchdowns for Michigan. The New York Times wrote of Magidsohn: "The work of this sturdy warrior was most brilliant from start to finish of the spectacular struggle. Both on the offensive and on the defensive he was a whirlwind . . ."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Syracuse
The Detroit Free Press wrote that "Michigan completely outclassed Syracuse in every department of the game." However, Michigan had several drives deep into Syracuse territory that resulted in no points. Early in the game, Syracuse held at its one-yard line. Michigan also was penalized for 105 yards in the game, and two of the penalties stopped drives that had penetrated close to Syracuse's goal. Michigan's point total was also limited due to its kicking game. Conklin converted one of two extra point attempts and missed five field goal attempts on a muddy field.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Syracuse
Michigan's defense held Syracuse to one first down in the entire game, and Syracuse never moved the ball to within 40 yards of Michigan's goal line. The game ended on an interception of a Syracuse pass by Magidsohn.

1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Notre Dame (cancelled)
Michigan had been scheduled to play Notre Dame on November 5, 1910. Michigan protested Notre Dame's use of two players (George Philbrook and Ralph Dimmick) who had reportedly played more than four years of college football. After Notre Dame refused to bench the players, Michigan's Board of Control of Athletics canceled the game. The New York Times reported: "It is understood here that this ends all athletic relations between Michigan and Notre Dame." The two teams did not play again for more than 30 years, the longest break in the Michigan–Notre Dame football rivalry.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Notre Dame (cancelled)
In lieu of the game with Notre Dame, Michigan played a game against the reserves on November 5. The game proved costly, as quarterback Shorty McMillan, who had played every minute of the first four games, sustained torn muscles in his shoulder. As a result of the injury, he was unable to play against Penn.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
On November 12, 1910, Michigan played the Penn Quakers to a scoreless tie at Franklin Field in Philadelphia. Since leaving the Big Ten Conference, Michigan had played annual rivalry games against Penn at or near the end of the season. Penn was one of the dominant football programs of the era, winning seven national championships between 1894 and 1912. The 1910 game was the sixth meeting between the schools. Penn won the first four games, and Michigan won the 1909 game. Michigan arrived in Philadelphia on the Thursday afternoon before the game and set up camp in Wayne, Pennsylvania, a Philadelphia suburb.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
Although the game ended in a scoreless tie, newspapers opined that Michigan had outplayed Penn. In the Detroit Free Press, E. A. Batchelor wrote: "In everything but the count, it was Michigan's game. Yost's men, quoted at the long price of 10 to 6 in the betting prior to the opening of hostilities, showed a spirit and strength that completely astounded the easterners. In gaining ground on line bucking, the invaders were so superior to the Quakers that there was no comparison."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
In the Chicago Daily Tribune, Walter Eckersall (who also served as the game's referee) wrote that the game was "the most important intersectional contest of the year", a fierce struggle of "the kind which makes football history", and "a decided triumph for western football." Eckersall wrote that Michigan's versatile offense bewildered Penn, and he described Yost's 1910 squad as "a team which has reached the pinnacle of football perfection."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
One of Michigan's best scoring opportunities came on a punt from Penn quarterback Scott to Michigan end Victor Pattengill. Pattengill raised his hand for a fair catch at the Michigan 40-yard line, but was "buried in the sod" by several Penn players. The field judge Beacham did not see Pattengill call for the fair catch and did not call interference. Michigan protested, but the protest was overruled. Under 1910 rules, the penalty would have given Michigan a free kick from the Penn 25-yard line.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
On another occasion, Stanfield Wells caught a pass and ran 20 yards for what appeared to be a touchdown. However, an official ruled that Wells had "stepped outside" and the play was called back. A third scoring opportunity was lost after a fumble by Penn. Michigan's right tackle, Wheaton Cole, had the ball in front of him with a clear path ahead. Cole was unable to grab the football and "instead kicked it over the goal line where one of Mr. Penn's sons fell on it for a touchback that was a lifesaver to the Red and Blue hosts."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
On another occasion, Michigan drove to Penn's eight-yard line and needed three yards for a first down. Wells carried the ball on fourth down and was stopped with the ball going to Penn on downs. Batchelor blamed Michigan's inability to score on a rule change preventing the ball carrier from being pushed or pulled across the goal line by his own teammates. He complained about the new game which "the reformers invented and handed to that element of the public which believes the gridiron pastime should be a sport for invalids in evening dress."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
The game was rough and physical. Penn's halfback Sommer was ejected for kicking Frederick Conklin during a play. Despite the rough play, all eleven Michigan starters played the full 60 minutes without substitutions. Quarterback Shorty McMillan was twice hurt so badly that the trainer, Alvin Kraenzlein, had to work on him. Batchelor wrote that "though they did count nine on him", McMillan at the end of the game was still "barking signals and catching punts with all the ginger in the world."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
Eckersall singled out Joe Magidsohn as the star of the game:


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
In Magidsohn, Michigan has a great half back, and his brilliant playing in today's game was the bright feature. He tore through the heavy Penn forwards for substantial gains, while his squirming, turning end runs added many yards to Michigan's total. He was equally effective on the defense, and his ability to solve Penn's offense and direct his team mates to the point of attack had a good deal to do with the checking of the local's best ground gaining plays. "Maggie" was in every play, and carried the ball a greater number of times than any other man of either eleven.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
Batchelor praised the work of Michigan captain Albert Benbrook who loomed "like a mountain above the ruck of players" and on defense "smashed up plays with a vigor that sometimes threatened the very lives of the enemy." The Michigan student band traveled with the team to Philadelphia and burst into song "on the slightest provocation", with several band members "parading the field and defying the Quakers with the strains of 'The Victors.'"


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, at Penn
Michigan's starting lineup against Penn was Edmunds (left end), Conklin (left tackle), Benbrook (left guard), Cornwell (center), Quinn (right guard), Cole (right tackle), Wells (right end), McMillan (quarterback), Magidsohn (left halfback), Pattengill (right halfback), and Thomson (fullback).


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
After three consecutive road games, Michigan concluded its 1910 season at Ferry Field with a 6–0 victory over Minnesota in front of a crowd of more than 20,000 persons. The game was the ninth meeting between the two football programs, and the second game in which the teams competed for possession of the Little Brown Jug, the oldest rivalry trophy in American college football. Both teams came into the game undefeated and were considered the best teams in the west. Minnesota had a 6–0 record and had outscored its opponents 179 to 0.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
In the four weeks before the game, Minnesota had defeated Iowa State 49–0, Nebraska 27–0, Chicago 24–0, and Wisconsin 28–0. The game was expected to decide the western championship, and Minnesota fans sent the Gophers off with a parade in their honor. Some even opined that the contest would decide the national championship.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
In the days leading up to the game, Minnesota officials reportedly challenged the eligibility of George C. Thomson to play against the Gophers. The dean of Michigan's literary department was deputized to investigate. The investigation concluded that Thomson's entrance credits were "equivalent to the requirements of the literary department, though not corresponding to the precise subjects enumerated in the university calendar." Nevertheless, Thomson did not play in the Minnesota game.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
Neither team was able to score in the first three quarters. At the end of the third quarter, Michigan drove to the Minnesota nine-yard line. Following the three-minute intermission before the fourth quarter began, the drive stalled. Fullback George Lawton attempted a field goal, but his kick missed the mark by a foot. With five minutes remaining in the game, Michigan finally sustained a touchdown drive. Michigan began the drive at its own 53-yard line (midfield was the 55-yard line in 1910). With time running out, the Wolverines resorted to the forward pass.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
On the first play of the drive, Stanfield Wells threw to Stanley Borleske for a gain of 27 yards to the Minnesota 30-yard line. On the next play, Michigan ran the same play, and Borleske took the ball for 24 yards to the three-yard line. Wells ran with the ball on first down and was stopped for no gain. On second down, Wells again ran into the Minnesota defense. With a crowd of players on top of Wells, it was not clear initially whether he had crossed the goal line. When the referee separated the pile, Wells was holding the ball and had crossed over the goal line. E. A. Batchelor described the "Niagara of sound" that erupted from the stands:


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
Venerable professors, giddy freshmen, staid, and usually phlegmatic, business men, small boys, pretty girls and even sweet faced old ladies stood up and howled until their vocal chords refused to emit another sound. Down on the field the Michigan team, substitutes, coaches, band and everyone else who managed to pass the barriers and gain admittance to the inclosure [sic] set aside for the elect, swarmed out on the battle ground, mingling in one wild, joyous, shouting, hugging, handshaking mob.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
It took several minutes for the officials to clear the field so that the game could be completed. Conklin kicked the extra point, and the game ended as Minnesota began to drive downfield after Lawton's kickoff. E. A. Batchelor summed up the victory over Minnesota:


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
Two perfectly executed forward passes, each swift and sure as a rapier's thrust; two plunges into the Minnesota line, and Michigan this afternoon has beaten the Gophers, won the undisputed championship of the west, established her claim to be considered the country's best and proved the superiority of skill and cunning over mere strength.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
All eleven Michigan starters played the full 60 minutes without substitution. Quarterback Shorty McMillan sustained a broken rib and played the last hour with the injury. Batchelor praised McMillan for his courage: "That he must have endured agonies in such a bruising combat easily can be appreciated. The whole history of football records no gamer exhibition than this. Michigan men who were aware of the boy's condition cheered him until their throats were sore." Batchelor also praised Michigan's defensive effort, noting that "the tackling was deadly in its accuracy and fierceness."


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
Batchelor noted that the final minutes of the game were like the events that "occur mostly in books featured by the exploits of Frank Merriwell" and other fictional heroes. Batchelor also noted that Michigan played "the most open game that she had shown all season, using the forward pass time and again.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Season summary, Minnesota
Michigan's starting lineup against Minnesota was Borleske (left end), Conklin (left tackle), Benbrook (left guard), Cornwell (center), Bogle (right guard), Edmunds (right tackle), Wells (right end), McMillan (quarterback), Magidsohn (left halfback), Pattengill (right halfback), and Lawton (fullback).


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Post-season
After the season had ended, The New York Times wrote that, by defeating Minnesota, Michigan had "captured the Western football championship." Walter Eckersall also concluded that Michigan was entitled to the western championship. He also wrote a column in the Chicago Daily Tribune opining that Michigan had the best offense in the country and that its defense was also as good as any other.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Post-season
Three Michigan players received first-team All-American honors. Left guard and team captain Albert Benbrook was selected as a consensus first-team All-American for the second consecutive year. Stanfield Wells, who played three games at right tackle and three games at right end, was selected as a first-team All-American by Walter Camp. Left halfback Joe Magidsohn was the team's leading scorer with 10 points on two touchdown runs of 30 and 40 yards against Syracuse and also received first-team All-American honors from some selectors.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Post-season
Six Michigan players received first-team All-Western honors. In the Chicago Daily Tribune, Walter Eckersall selected Michigan players for five of the eleven first-team positions on his All-Western team. The five players so honored by Eckersall were Benbrook (left guard), Wells (left end), Magidsohn (left halfback), William P. Edmunds (right tackle), and Stanley Borleske (right end). Michigan's Coach Yost also selected an All-Western team with five Michigan players. Yost's selections differed from Eckersall's only in the exclusion of Borleske and the inclusion of Arthur Cornwell at center. In Collier's Weekly, E. C. Patterson selected Benbrook as the best player in the West and named two other Michigan players to his All-Western team.


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Post-season
In the weeks after the conclusion of the 1910 football season, much attention was focused on the question of whether Michigan should return to the Big Eight Conference. Facing a threatened break in athletic relations with Amos Alonzo Stagg's Chicago Maroons and a rebuke from the conference, Minnesota was forced to cease scheduling games against Michigan. (Michigan remained independent of the conference until 1917 and would not play another game against Minnesota until 1919.)


1910 Michigan Wolverines football team, Players, Varsity letter winners
At the end of the 1910 season, 15 Michigan players were awarded varsity letter "M's" for their participation on the football team. They were:


1910 Michigan gubernatorial election
The 1910 Michigan gubernatorial election was held on November 1, 1910. Republican nominee Chase S. Osborn defeated Democratic candidate Lawton T. Hemans with 52.85% of the vote.


1910 Mid Glamorgan by-election
The Mid Glamorganshire by-election of 1910 was held on 31 March 1910. The by-election was held due to the incumbent Liberal MP, Samuel Thomas Evans becoming President of the Probate and Divorce Division of the High Court of Justice. It was won by the Liberal-Labour candidate Frederick Gibbins.


1910 Mid Glamorgan by-election
The Mid Glamorgan Liberal and Labour Association selected Frederick Gibbins to fight the seat. Gibbins was initially reluctant having given certain private assurances that he would not contest the election but he was prevailed upon to change his mind and having consulted his close friends (and perhaps getting the permission of his wife), he agreed to stand. The by-election was acrimonious because it signalled a rupture between the Liberals and organised Labour in the area, especially the South Wales Miners Federation.


1910 Mid Glamorgan by-election
It also caused internal conflicts within the South Wales Miners Federation, with William Brace, their Vice-President, opposing the intervention of a Labour candidate. It also caused internal conflicts for the Liberal Party as the local Association had been put under pressure by the Liberal Chief Whip, the Master of Elibank. Elibank wanted the Liberals to stand aside in favour of a Labour candidate in the interests of good relations with Labour at Westminster where the Liberal government now depended on Labour and the Irish Nationalists.


1910 Mid Glamorgan by-election
However, the Liberals in Mid Glamorgan did not wish to yield the seat and determined to fight it. With tacit Unionist support given to him in a campaign characterised by anti-socialist rhetoric, Gibbins held the seat for the Liberals with a majority of 2,710 against a strong Labour challenge from Vernon Hartshorn a prominent miners’ official who later sat as Labour MP for Ogmore.


1910 Mikhailov
1910 Mikhailov, provisional designation 1972 TZ1, is a carbonaceous asteroid from the outer regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 35 kilometers (22 mi) in diameter. Discovered at Nauchnyj in 1972, it was named after Russian astronomer Aleksandr Aleksandrovich Mikhailov. It has a 3:1 ratio of iron to carbon, hence the name. The asteroid is believed to have been expelled from its parent asteroid belt (one of three main asteroid belts in the inner Solar System), and is classified as a metallic asteroid, because its iron is fairly weak.


1910 Mikhailov, Discovery
Mikhailov was discovered on 8 October 1972, by Ukrainian astronomer Lyudmila Zhuravleva at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Nauchnyj, on the Crimean peninsula.


1910 Mikhailov, Discovery
Zhuravleva is ranked 61 in Harvard's ranking of those who discovered minor planets. Detween 1972 and 1992, She discovered 200 such bodies, 13 of which were co-discoveries.


1910 Mikhailov, Orbit and classification
The C-type asteroid is a non-family asteroid that belongs to the background population of the main belt. It orbits the Sun in the outer asteroid belt at a distance of 2.9–3.2 AU once every 5 years and 4 months (1,939 days; semi-major axis of 3.04 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.05 and an inclination of 10° with respect to the ecliptic.


1910 Mikhailov, Physical characteristics

The official naming citation was published by the Minor Planet Center on 20 February 1976 (M.P.C. 3937).


1910 Milan–San Remo
The fourth running of the Milan–San Remo cycling race took place on 3 April 1910. Frenchman Eugène Christophe won the event, more than one hour ahead of his first pursuers. The race gained a place in cycling legend because it was run in dreadful weather. Riders needed to take refuge in the houses along the roads from a severe snowstorm. Only four of 63 riders finished the race.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Summary
63 riders started the race in Milan at 6 a.m., when news broke that heavy snow fell on the Turchino, prompting some riders to return home immediately. Cyrille Van Hauwaert, winner of the 1908 race, broke away and had a 3-minute lead over Octave Lapize, Luigi Ganna and Ernest Paul when they reached Ovada. Eugène Christophe was in fifth place at 10 minutes.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Summary
As the weather deteriorated, only thirty riders were still in the race by Masone and were forced to walk and shoulder their bikes up the climb. At the top of the Turchino, after five hours of racing, Van Hauwaert was still in the lead, followed by Christophe at 10 minutes, Paul at 19 minutes and Ganna at 22. Van Hauwaert crashed in the snowy descent, sought refuge in a cottage and, when warmed up, refused to continue his way.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Summary
Meanwhile, Eugène Christophe, after being refreshed as well, continued his way in a pair of long pants, and set off in pursuit of the new leaders Pierino Albini and Luigi Ganna. By Savona Christophe had taken the lead, followed by Ganna at 15 minutes and Albini at 26. Christophe again stopped to eat and cut his pants that had become entangled in his chain.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Summary
Christophe won, even though he thought he had taken a wrong road and did not realize he was the first to reach Sanremo. Christophe finished the race in 12 hours and 24 minutes, the slowest in history. Luigi Ganna, the previous year's winner, finished second at 39' 30", but was disqualified for having taken a car.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Summary
After the race, Christophe needed to be hospitalized for frostbite to his hands and further body damage from the cold. He spent a month in a Sanremo hospital and it took another two years before he recovered to his original health.


1910 Milan–San Remo, Results
Just four riders were officially listed. Two more riders reportedly finished after the classified four, but the officials had already gone home.

1910 Minnesota Senate election, Background
The last election resulted in the Minnesota Republican Party winning a large majority of seats, which they had maintained since the 1859 State Senate Election. The Minnesota Democratic Party was the main competition to the Republicans, although their chances of taking the body were considered slim to none. The major competitions of the election cycle were during the primary season, during which partisans faced off over the issue of the 'county option.' Numerous incumbents lost renomination over the issue.


1910 Minnesota Senate election, Background
Major issues of the general election campaign were addressed in a speech by then-Governor Adolph Olson Eberhart on October 5, 1910 in Mankato. He stood by what he called the "distinctly progressive" Republican Party platform.

1910 NHA season
The 1910 NHA season was the first season of the National Hockey Association men's professional ice hockey league. The season started on January 5, but was suspended immediately and the league then absorbed the Ottawa and Shamrocks teams of the Canadian Hockey Association and the season continued from January 15 to March 15. Seven teams played 12 games each. The Ottawa Hockey Club played two Stanley Cup challenges during the season, but lost the Cup to their rivals the Montreal Wanderers who won the league championship and played a Cup challenge afterwards.


1910 NHA season, League business
After the Canadian Hockey Association (CHA) turned down the Wanderers' application to join, Wanderers' manager Jimmy Gardner, along with Renfrew's Ambrose O'Brien worked to put together enough teams to form a league. Gardner approached the Ottawa Senators of the Federal League to have an Ottawa entry, but the players decided to fold the team, rather than compete with the Ottawa Hockey Club. Gardner also approached the Mutual Street Rink of Toronto to form a professional team, but was turned down as the rink was fully booked.


1910 NHA season, League business
The league was founded on December 2, 1909, at a private meeting at 300 St. James Street, the headquarters of the Dominion Office and Store Fitting Limited in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. At this meeting four franchises were approved:


1910 NHA season, League business
Eddie McCafferty acted as secretary, and he also was representative of interests in Toronto. A franchise would be held for a future Toronto team. The NHA discussed organizing a team in Ottawa with the Ottawa Lacrosse Club and getting Montreal Le National to join the NHA. The Wanderers and Renfrew signed a pact not to merge with the CHA unless Cobalt and Haileybury were also admitted. The teams pledged a $1,000 bond to stay together.


1910 NHA season, League business
Two days later on December 4, the NHA held an organizing meeting at the Windsor Hotel in Montreal. The CHA was meeting at the hotel also, and a message was sent to the Ottawa, Shamrocks and Le National teams to seek a merged seven-team league. This was turned down by the CHA, which would not accept Cobalt and Haileybury. The CHA proposed that Renfrew and Wanderers join the CHA, but the NHA teams turned that proposal down.


1910 NHA season, League business
At the meeting, a franchise for 'Les Canadiens' was granted, to be organized by Jack Laviolette. Mr. Hare of Cobalt put up a security deposit for the franchise on the understanding that it would be transferred to Montreal French sportsmen as soon as possible.


1910 NHA season, League business
The NHA decided to run the league in a more business-like manner. The league decided to write a standard player's contract. McCafferty, who was also secretary of the Montreal Baseball Club, was to draw up the contract. The NHA also decided to have professional referees. Both of these were innovations in the world of ice hockey.


1910 NHA season, Regular season
The first Canadiens game ever took place on January 5 under a cloud. Didier Pitre had signed a contract with both the Canadiens and the Nationals. Pitre was risking a $2,000 fine and 60 days jail time. The Nationals had a legal injunction against Pitre playing for the Canadiens. This contributed to an over-capacity crowd at the Jubilee Rink of about 5,000. Pitre did play (he was guaranteed any fines by Canadiens' management) and court action commenced. Pitre was found to not to have a binding contract with the Nationals by the courts. By this time, the CHA had folded, and no contract was enforceable. Pitre would have a long career with the Canadiens, playing into the 1920s.


1910 NHA season, Regular season
On January 15, a meeting was held by the league executive and Ottawa and Montreal Shamrocks were admitted to the NHA. The games played before that date were thrown out, and games from that date forwards counted towards the final standings.


1910 NHA season, Regular season
On January 22, at a game between Renfrew and Shamrocks, Shamrock's Joe Hall was ejected for striking the judge-of-play Rod Kennedy. After regulation time, the game was tied. Referee Tom Hodge proposed that Hall return for the overtime, but Renfrew objected and did not play the overtime. Hall was later fined $100 for the incident and suspended until January 30. The game was ordered replayed but wasn't due to ice conditions and the game results were accepted as a tie.


1910 NHA season, Regular season
On Cyclone Taylor's first return to Ottawa as a member of the Renfrew team, he made his famous promise to score a goal backwards against Ottawa. This led to incredible interest, with over 7000 in attendance. A bet of $100 was placed at the King Edward Hotel against him scoring at all. The Senators would win 8–5 (3 goals in overtime) and more importantly keep Taylor off the scoresheet. Later in the season at the return match in Renfrew, Taylor made good on his boast with a goal scored backwards. This was the final game of the season, and the Senators had no chance at the league title, and don't appear to have put in an effort, losing 17–2.

1910 NSWRFL season, Teams
With the loss of Cumberland at the end of the 1908 season, the league remained with eight teams; a preferable outcome since no byes would be needed. However by the end of the 1909 season, interest for a local Newcastle competition as well as the difficulties of longer travel for the Newcastle side saw it pull out of the premiership. As a result, a team from Annandale joined the premiership to leave the competition with eight teams. Also this season St. Luke's Park became the Western Suburbs club's home ground.

Leading 4-2 with reportedly only seconds to go, South Sydney seemed set to take out their third straight premiership.


1910 NSWRFL season, Final
However, after Souths player Howard Hallett was forced to kick the ball clear from his own line, Newtown centre Albert Hawkes caught the ball on the full just metres away from halfway and the touch line. The rules at the time allowed Hawkes to claim a "fair mark" and Newtown to have a shot at goal. Newtown captain Charles "Boxer" Russell was successful in kicking the goal from a difficult position, allowing Newtown to tie the game and win the competition as they had been minor premiers.

Oswald West, a former agent of State Land Board and then member of the Oregon Railroad Commission, won the Democratic primary on the back of his good reputation on both offices.

The following day, on 14 November 1910, Sun Yat-sen chaired an Emergency Meeting of the Tongmenghui at 120 Armenian Street, now the Sun Yat Sen Museum Penang, and raised Straits Dollars $8,000 on the spot. The meeting focused on fund raising and the planning of a final revolution to overthrow the Qing government that would make or break the Tongmenghui.


1910 Penang conference, Description
Participants included followers such as Huang Xing(黃興), Hu Hanmin(胡漢民), Zhao Sheng (趙聲), Sun Mei (孫眉), Dai Jitao(戴季陶), Goh Say Eng (吴世荣) and Ooi Kim Kheng (黄金庆) from Penang; Tung Yen (邓泽如) from Seremban; and Li Xiehe (李燮和) from Indonesia. In total, 53 people participated.

1910 Penang conference, Description
After this meeting Sun would leave Penang for North America, United States. There are multiple possible causes on why he was banned. One reason was that he was ordered by the British colonial authorities to leave Penang because of his public criticism of British colonial rule. Another reason was that Straits administrator John Anderson ordered him to be banned because of inflammatory speech to incite support for his anti-Manchu revolutions on 26 November 1910, at a Chinese club.

1910 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election
The 1910 Pennsylvania Gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 1910. The main candidates were Republican John K. Tener, Democrat Webster Grim, Keystone Party leader William H. Berry, and Socialist John W. Slayton.


1910 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election, Campaign
The election was mired in scandal. The main focus was on the Pennsylvania state capitol building, which cost $13 million to build, of which $9 million went for furnishings. Although the state Republican machine remained powerful, its reputation was in shambles, as five insiders were arrested in connection with the capitol cost overruns. Boies Penrose, the U.S. Senator and Republican boss searched for a candidate with high name recognition but little political experience to improve the standing of his organization. Penrose chose Tener, a famous 19th century baseball player who had kept a low profile as a banker until running for Congress in 1909.


1910 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election, Campaign
Democrats, meanwhile, tried to turn to Berry as their candidate, as they believed he had the perfect reform image due to being the catalyst in uncovering the scandal. Berry was initially opposed by attorney Cyrus Munson, a party boss, but after he withdrew due to health concerns, Penrose attempted to infiltrate the Democratic convention. His move resulted in the nomination of State Senator Grim from Doylestown, and reformers from both parties attempted to rally behind Berry, who ran under the banner of the "Keystone Party".


1910 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election, Campaign
Although Penrose viewed Tener as a pawn, he was a viable campaigner in his own right. Tener took much more progressive stances than Penrose had envisioned, supporting education expansion, greater public finance for road construction, and women's suffrage. Tener also ran on his wholesome image as an old time ballplayer in an era when gambling concerns overran the sport. While Tener was unable to gain a majority of the vote, he was able to defeat Berry, as Grim, who had the support of the party machinery, split enough of the progressive vote to lead to a Republican win.

1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
After Coach Joe Thompson led the Pitt eleven to a surprising 6-2-1 record in 1909 with only four returning players, the Pitt Athletic Association, students, faculty and fans were looking forward to another successful season in 1910. Captain Homer Roe and Frank Van Doren were the only losses to graduation. All the returning players already knew the Coach Thompson system. The schedule that Graduate Manager Hurst assembled was weaker than previous years as Carlisle, Notre Dame and Bucknell were missing. Georgetown, Carnegie Tech and Ohio University were the replacements and Pitt had no away games.


1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
Significant games played by Pitt during the 1910 season included victories over West Virginia (38–0), Washington & Jefferson (14-0), and Penn State (11–0). The first two games were played at D.C. & A.C. Park and the final seven at Forbes Field. The football game programs for this season were “The First Annual Football Yearbook” put out by the University of Pittsburgh Athletic Committee.

1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
The covers were photos of prominent University officials: Chancellor Samuel Black McCormick (Washington & Jefferson game), Dr. Albert Frost, Dean of the Faculty of the College and Engineering School (West Virginia game ), and Coach Thompson (Penn State game). The University would continue the Yearbook style program through the 1926 season. The Pitt Weekly school newspaper debuted on September 26, 1910 and covered the football season in depth. The results of the season were much better than anyone had anticipated. Pittsburgh shut out all nine of its opponents, outscored opponents by a combined score of 282 to 0, and finished with a perfect 9–0 record in their second year under head coach Joseph H. Thompson.


1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
"By defeating Penn State on Thanksgiving Day, 1910, the Pitt Varsity under “Joe” Thompson and “Tex” Richards, piled up a record that stamps it as the greatest team that ever defended the Gold and Blue. During the whole season not an opponent was able to cross their goal line. And what a great finish it was to beat Penn State by eleven points!"


1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
After the highly successful 1910 football season both record wise and financially, the 1912 edition of the Owl Yearbook summarized the situation best:


1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
“The remarkable success attained by the representatives of the University of Pittsburgh on the athletic field during the year of 1910 marks the high–tide of athletic activity at this institution. Until a few years ago athletics in Pittsburgh were unorganized and the teams were unworthy to represent an institution of higher learning.... In 1904 a number of enthusiastic Alumni took up the General Athletic Committee and arranged for a foot-ball coach and training table, and a schedule that put Pitt on the athletic map.


1910 Pittsburgh Panthers football team, Season recap
Since that time the organization has been perfect, the student enthusiasm has been enlisted,  and steady progress the result. The latest improvement has been the installation of the graduate coaching system. Joseph H. Thompson has proved to be the right man in the right place, as championships in foot-ball and track go to prove. Joe has developed a “Pitt system,” one that will place the University of Pittsburgh among the great names in intercollegiate sports.”

The 1910 Pitt team has been recognized as a co-national champion by the National Championship Foundation. However, Pitt did not play games against any of the leading football teams and Harvard was recognized as champion by more selectors.

Two minutes into the second quarter guard Henry Blair recovered a Westminster fumble by quarterback McClure on the Titan twenty yard line. Fullback Tex Richards pounded the ball into the end zone for the first score. Galvin converted the point after and Pitt led 6-0. McClure (140 lbs.) decided to punch Galvin (240 lbs.) out of frustration and the referee readily disqualified McClure and stepped off the penalty. Captain Richards convinced the officials to allow McCLure to stay in the game. The Pitt offense advanced the ball to the Titan five yard line prior to halftime but were unable to score.
