...ever a nine deserved to win a game of ball by good playing, the Yale nine deserved to win the game on Saturday. With the single exception of Jones giving two men their bases on called balls, the play of the Yale men was absolutely faultless. Jones' pitching was effective, Hubbard's catching and throwing to bases was perfect, Hopkins and Terry vied with each other in seeing which could put in the best work in the field. The batting was heavy and the base-running sharp. The whole nine played to win and it won. Harvard played a good...

Harvard has certainly every reason to feel satisfied with the result of the athletic games on Saturday. The records in almost every instance were very good, and the fact that, except in the case of the mile walk, no one of the winners was pressed, give us every reason to expect far better performances next Saturday. Mr. Soren in the running high jump excelled any of his previous records, and in Mr. Atkinson, who cleared five feet six inches, we have an excellent man to take his place next year. The running of Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Morison was beyond...

Three games, however, were for some reason or another forfeited by Harvard, giving them to Yale with scores of 9 to 0. These contests were inangurated by the class of '69, and the earliest games resulted in favor of Yale by such scores...

...Wheeler, of New York city, 5; A. H. Van Sinderen, of Brooklyn, 6; H. R. Muller, of New York city, 7; J. A. B. Cowles, of Rye, N. Y., stroke and captain. Walker, of the class of '84, is coxswain. The crew are the same as last year except in the case of Van Sinderen, who takes the place of Lynch. The positions are different in some instances from what they were last year. Then Reckhart was fifth instead of second, Porter was second instead of fourth, Wheeler was sixth instead of fifth, and Lynch, whose place Van Sinderen, sixth...
