Coach Murphy said that the Yale team is the best one which has been developed at New Haven for six years and is going to fight Hard. The Harvard team has shown steady improvement in fielding, base-running and team work and the Holy Cross game although a defeat, was, from a Harvard standpoint, the most game this year. Hitting is still the team's weak point and the confidence which will remedy this defect will be given by hearty cheering...
...whole, is much less ready to give money to support the teams than it was twenty, or even ten years ago, although the actual burden has grown steadily lighter. Under the circumstances such a state of feeling is not to be wondered at, and it has borne hard on the managers, for the unwilling subscriber has now a convenient fence to hide behind; indeed he can even display indignation that such an appeal is made to him.

...brilliant plays were made, especially by the outfield. Kernan excelled in this respect, for he made three difficult catches of long flies, at least one of which would have been good for a home run. In batting the men showed an encouraging amount of confidence, and hit the ball hard. Leonard's home run and Kernan's two hits, one of which started a fine rally in the seventh inning, were the features for the University team...
