With the exception of the second and ninth frames, Barbee had no trouble in turning back the B. U. stickmen. Ullman's poor throw in the ninth and a missed grounder in the second stanza by R. C. Sullivan '28, who shared the shortstop's duties with J. P. Chase '28, were the only mistakes in an exhibition of clean, flawless fielding. Sullivan allowed Jenkins's hard grounder to skid through his legs, but as his glove did not touch the horsehide, he was not charged with an error...

The catcher dropped the ball, Zarakov scored, and Todd and Tobin paused at first and third. Todd scored when the shortstop booted Chauncey's grounder, and Chauncey took second, and Tobin scored a moment later on a passed ball. After Chase struck out, Sullivan and the wind combined to give Harvard another hit and run, and Barbee's single scored Sullivan after the latter had pilfered the keystone sack. Barbee took second on a wild...
