...game at second after his lay-off, accepting seven chances without a misplay. Harding livened the team up on first considerably, and, though he let a grounder get through him in the first inning, he made some clever pick-ups of low throws, and by a splendid one-hand catch in the ninth prevented Simons's high throw from being an error. At the bat he showed good form, securing a timely single, and a neat sacrifice. Leonard played a finished game on third, getting everything within reach, and in the eighth started a fast double play to McCall...

The umpire called the third strike on a ball that appeared altogether too high, which was most unfortunate ror Harvard, as it took away...

He was replaced by Storke, who allowed no hits. Kavanagh made a spectacular catch of a foul fly off first base...
