...instrument stood on the bank at the extreme outside edge of the path. about 25 yards from the finish, and the view obtained was from the rear of the runners. Nearest to the camera was the rearmost man, either Horr of Cornell, or Lund of Harvard, fully 10 feet behind his leaders. Next came Baker, of Harvard; Bonine, of Michigan, and either Lund or Horr, almost exactly abreast, Bonine, if anything, a shade behind the others. A few feet in front of this row, and close to the inner curb, ran Rogers, of Harvard, while Sherrill, of Yale...
...themselves at three o'clock on the turf near first base on Yale Field, and staid there during the game. The field was surrounded by a mass of carriages full of pretty girls adorned with blue ribbons, and every available bit of standing room in the grand-stand and behind the foullines was occupied. The Yale managers seemed indifferent as to whether the Harvard men should be seated or not; the CRIMSON scorer was refused a seat in the grand-stand, and was forced to sit on the grass; and the whole Harvard delegation, though extremely orderly, was constantly annoyed...
...playing on both sides was loose. The loss of Allen behind the plate made our battery ineffective, and though Henshaw faced Nichols' terrible delivery most pluckily, the team was demoralized.

Management to the fact that, while Harvard holds the championship pennant, there is no flagpole from which it may proudly float during championship games. A good-sized pole could be erected - say behind the back stop on Holmes - at a comparatively small expense, and the presence of the prize for which they were fighting would urge on the players to greater efforts, and lend a greater interest to the game in the eyes of the spectators. Why could not this be done before the last championship game...
...tied with the Harvard freshmen yet to bat. McPherson took first on called balls, stole second, went to third on a passed ball, and scored the winning run on a beautiful base hit by Trafford. For Yale, Watkinson, Davol, Smith and Osborn did good work. Henshaw caught magnificently behind the bat, and Bingham pitched a fine game. Morgan and McPherson also played a brilliant game...
