Harvard won yesterday's game because T. Stevenson played his best even when he seemed really out in the eighth inning. With one out, the score 9 to 8 in favor of Williams, and Paine on third, Stevenson knocked an easy grounder to Ashton. The Williams man came running up to the line to tag Stevenson, who made a desperate dive for first base. In the collision the ball shot out of Ashton's hand and rolled over to the bleachers.

Amherst went out in order until the fourth inning, when Sullivan, the first man at the bat, hit for three bases, but was left on third by some good playing by T. Stevenson and Vincent. For Harvard, Haughton's grounder was fumbled by Johnson, but he was forced on Paine's hit to Gregory. Paine was also forced by T.

Harvard added two more runs to her score in the second. After Wrenn got his base on balls and stole second, another error by Corridon gave Rand first base, but he was out in the double play made on Scannell's grounder by Corridon, Pierce and McGuire. Then Dean hit to left field beyond Smith's reach, scoringWrenn and getting to second base himself. Paine's single gave Harvard an earned...
