...opened its season yesterday afternoon in the Stadium by defeating Bates, 11 to 0. The score does not show the real difference between the two teams, as Bates was outclassed in every department of the game. Last year the score of the Bates game was 18 to 0 in favor of Harvard, but as is was played nearly two weeks later in the season the University team was a far more finished and powerful machine. The game, however, was by no means disappointing. There was considerable team work, and element which is very often wanting in the early games...
Holy Cross has had a varied season since the first game with the University team. The most important games have been with Brown and Yale. The score of the former was 4 to 2 in favor of Brown. The latter was won by Holy Cross, 4 to 0. The make-up of the team this afternoon will be the same as in the first game with the exception of second base, which will be filled by Jones instead of Fryer. Harrington will take Jones's former place in right field...
...elementary course, Philosophy E, is taken every year by about three hundred and fifty men: About fifteen men report on it and of these some favor, some regret it.

Williams was prevented from scoring in the tenth and eleventh innings by good throws from Harvey and Dana. In the twelfth and thirteenth innings the tide turned in favor of the University team. Both times Williams failed to get a man to first. In the tenth Aronson astonished the Williams fielders by bunting down the third-base line. The Pitcher and third-baseman watched the ball in amazement and made no attempt to field it. Aronson stole second, and after Simons had sent a fly to right field, Dana was passed. Another inning was made necessary, however, as Crocker struck...
...inning rally 3 to 2. The game was very close, and each team played fast ball. Everts, for the Juniors, pitched a very creditable game, striking out eight men and allowing but five scattered hits. At the beginning of the ninth inning the score stood 2 to 1 in favor of the Sophomores. Ferguson, who was appointed captain of the Juniors in place of R. W. Hall, who has been taken on the University squad, reached first on an error, and stole second, but the next two batters were easy outs. Long was put into the game...
