After the disastrous first inning, Harvard played a game which, if continued, will bring the championship to Cambridge. The entire nine batted hard, few men striking out. Gallivan made his first error in a championship game, an excusable muff of Bates' throw in attempting to put King out at second. Willard led his side at the bat.

I refer to the high prices charged by the Tennis Association for the use of the courts on Holmes and Jarvis Fields. At the present rates it is an expensive luxury to play tennis often. It is difficult to see why such high prices should be charged. The ground is given by the University rent free, so the only...
