...28th of June, at Providence, was all that could be desired. Large numbers of Harvard and Yale supporters gathered to see the game, which was called at 3.15 P.M., with Yale at the bat...
HARVARD lost the toss, and went to the bat. For the first three innings each side was retired without runs, Hopkins's two-base hit being the only play at the bat worthy of mention. Parker took his base in the fourth by Nunn's fumble, second on Winsor's muff of Lamb's hit, third and home on Walden's force hit, Holden failing to put him out on the plate.

A tremendous cheer greets the rescued...
