...afternoon at 3 o'clock. Since the Groton game, the Freshman team has shown a general improvement in batting, bunting, and base-running, but the faults of inaccuracy in the infield and slowness in the outfield have not been corrected. The St. Mark's team is strong this year, although it has lost the larger proportion of the games played, partly on account of the absence of Pinckard, the team's best pitcher, who will pitch today. A hard game is therefore expected...
...Freshman lacrosse team will play the Stevens Institute of Technology 1906 team on Soldiers Field this afternoon at 2 o'clock. Although the Freshmen have improved recently in nearly every department of the game, the team as a whole is still crude and undeveloped, owing to the fact that the players are mostly new men.

Judging from comparative scores the chances of defeating the Stevens freshmen this afternoon are favorable...

Harvard lost the game chiefly by the poor stick work of the whole team and by a lack of aggressiveness on the part of the attack; for, although the defense played a fairly good game, on the attack the men were exceedingly slow and inaccurate in shooting, and there was little team play. Penhallow played a strong, fast game on the attack and Tomlinson guarded goal well. The University of Pennsylvania won by superior stick work and team play...
Baseball games will commence at 3.30 o'clock, and although only one diamond has already been signed for it is likely that several organizations will be entered in this department. All men who wish to play should bring their own bats and balls as none will be furnished by the management. The officials appointed to officiate at the baseball games are W. C. Clark and E. George...
