...victory, Aronson crossing the Plate before the left fielder started to throw the ball. The batting of the team as a whole against Gable was light, only four hits being secured. Leonard made two of these, one of them a two-bagger to left. The men hit the ball hard, however, and it was only good fielding on the part of Cornell that prevented more hits.

They have been defeated by Amherst, 6 to 0, but in a succeeding game reversed the outcome by the score of 4 to 3. The last outside game resulted in a victory...
