Harvard was first at the bat. Campbell, Knowlton and Quackenboss struck out. For Princeton, Wagenhurst went out, Bates to Willard. Durell made a hit, went to second on a passed ball, to third on a muffed third strike, and came home on Knowlton's muff of Dana's fly. L. Price got to first on a muffed third strike, stole second and came home on Knowlton's error. King made a hit, but was left by Price's striking...

The treatment...

The game will probably be watched with a good deal of interest by many of the upperclassmen, and this ought to bring out the best qualities in a player both in the field and at the bat. Nothing inspires a freshman team with a healthy confidence in themselves and a feeling of reliance on each other more than to win their first game, and this we sincerely hope will be done. Brilliant individual playing cannot hold out in the long run against steady team work...
