...place yesterday afternoon on Jarvis in a drizzling rain. The game was not an especially exciting one, but it was fairly well-played throughout. The Juniors showed up well both at the bat and in the field. Butterworth was effective, and Aiken although having several passed balls, gave him good support. McKean played a good game at first base, and McCoy handled himself well at second. His batting was a feature of the game. The freshmen played poorly and the team will have to improve greatly if they wish to make any showing in the other class games or with...
...club of Princeton returned from their annual western tour on April 20th. The trip was much more extended than those of previous years and despite the fact that it occurred during Lent, large audiences were the rule wherever the clubs appeared. The singing of the Glee club was extremely good and the daily papers gave most flattering accounts of their efforts.

There are enough old men to form a good nucleus, and as the new material is unusually promising, the team will probably be stronger than that of last year. If no accidents happen to the players, Harvard may hope to win back the honors which now rest with Princeton...
Harvard was beaten 8 to 5 in a seven innings game by Williams at Williamstown Saturday afternoon. The day was stormy and made good playing out of the question, but the condition of the weather does not account for the utterly reckless manner and lack of determination shown by Harvard. The men that constitute the Harvard University nine ought to understand by this time that they are expected to make at least a fair showing. What the result of a Harvard-Princeton game will be, judging from Saturday's and other games played so far this season, is too ridiculous...
