...cannot too strongly advise all those who enjoy cricket and those who have never seen a game before, to be present at the match on Holmes Field to-day. Although the contest will probably be too one-sided to be breathlessly exciting, the pleasure of seeing some of the best cricketers in this country should be enough to bring out a large crowd. The Pennsylvania cricket team has two members of the celebrated American cricket team which went to England three summers ago, as well as several other well-known players. The Harvard eleven should receive some support from...

Several times during the afternoon they left the court, fastening a racquet to the net as a token of possession, and amused themselves by watching the base-ball game. Several men were waiting for a court, but were evidently too courteous to take the one in question. This sort of thing continued until...
