...HAVEN, Conn., June 4. - It is now almost certain that Walter Carter, the Yale pitcher, will be unable to occupy the box again during his college course. In the game in which Yale was beaten 9 to 7 by the New Yorks, Carter strained a ligament of his pitching arm. He failed to take care of it, and the strain has been aggravated.

For Colgate, P. Munro...

The home team was blanked until the seventh. Then their hits, two bases on balls, with fielders' errors, gave four runs...
