...excellent batting. This was Harvard's opportunity to win the game. Scannell led off with a two-base hit and Burgess advanced him by a sacrifice. Clarkson had two strikes called, but then hit a sharp single to right field and Scannell scored. Haughton followed with another good hit and both runners advanced a base on Rand's sacrifice. A hit would then have won the game, but Stevenson could only hit a grounder to Smith. Again in the seventh inning another excellent chance was lost. Paine and Chandler both hit safely and Dean sacrificed, but neither Scannell nor Burgess...
...opposing pitchers are probably the strongest college players who have occupied the box this year, and the contest between them was very close. Paine was more effective than his rival, but did not have particularly good control and was rather erratic in his fielding during the early part of the game. In the first inning he gave two bases on balls and made a wild pitch and a wild throw to first. These errors, with two sacrifice hits, gave Princeton a lead which Harvard could not overcome. From this point until the tenth inning Paine's pitching was faultless...
...steady gme, and behind the bat Scannell gave Paine the best of support. His error was a wild throw of a bunt near the plate. The finest play of the game was a running catch by Burgess in deep left field of a long hit by Altman, which looked good for three bases. Rand made an almost equally good catch of a fly which dropped through the branches of the willows. Burgess, however, misjudged, and then muffed another fly, and both he and Clarkson fumbled badly on Smith's hit in the tenth inning...
...policy. Incontestable for any cause after one year, if the premiums are duly paid. A month's grace in the payment of premiums, during which time the policy remains in force. The privilege of reinstatement during the five months following the month's grace, if the insured is in good health. Non-forfeiting after three years' premiums have been paid, ordinary paid-up insurance being granted on request within six months after default in payment of premium, or the insurance for the full amount of the policy being extended during a period shown therein, if no request is made...
...Harvard loses the game today and with it the series, it will be rather hard to pick the best college team of this season. The deciding game of the Yale-Princeton series will be played at New Haven, and for that reason Yale stands a good chance to win. On the other hand, Brown has beaten Yale three times, and Harvard has beaten Brown two out of four games, both away from home, and by the very good score of 6 to 1. If, however, Harvard wins the series with Princeton, there will remain only the question of superiority over...
