Last year Bowdoin proved unexpectedly strong and at the end of the first half led in the storing by 6 points to 5; only the hardest kind of work in the second half enabled the University team to avoid defeat, the final score being Harvard 17, Bowdoin 6.

...Holy Cross baseball team defeated the University nine at Worcester on Saturday in a closely contested game by the score of 2 to 1.

Two games...
