...reader who is ignorant of Harvard's methods and customs. In his concluding sentence, the writer meets the cry of misrepresentation that he knows is sure to rise against him by asserting that it is not his business to write of a nobler Harvard, but merely of the baser tendencies of the Unversity. He fancies he has cleared himself by this lightly written phrase. In truth he has played the part of a mole.

...timely single to left, Campbell followed with his fourth consecutive hit, a home run, the ball going to the law school building.

Harvard scored in the fourth on an error of Kelley, followed by a two baser by Willard. They made two more runs in the sixth on a base on balls, and a hit by Campbell, a fumble by Harkins, and two in the eighth on hits by Foster, Willard and Henshaw, and a two-baser by Boyden. The game was ended by a fine double...
