Harvard suffered another crushing defeat yesterday afternoon at the hands of the Holy Cross nine, the score being even to one in favor of the latter. The fielding of Harvard was slovenly and poor and the batting weak; in fact the playing, as a whole, was poorer than one would expect to see in a class game. The team went to pieces at critical moments and failed to pull together at all. Rand and Burgess were the only men who seemed to know how to play ball.

Holy Cross came to the bat first. Kelley, the first man up, got his base on balls, went to second on a wild pitch, and reached third on a passed ball.
