...play of '94 was wretched in the extreme. Fourteen errors, all by the infield, is pretty nearly a record, even for a class game, and their batting, with the exception of Mackie's three-bagger, and Hapgood's clean base-hit which followed it, bringing in the only earned run of the game, was woefully weak. In one respect however, they out-played the freshmen, for they put snap and life, even into their errors, while '95, though they played a clean game, did not play with snap, except at the rarest intervals...

Not a man struck out, while Frothingham and Upton each made a three base hit. Dickinson scored a very pretty home run. Highlands and Howe were both effective, the former allowing no hits to be made, and the latter only...
