...port-side twists of pitcher Hensil once again managed to keep the Harvard sluggers in check as the Villanova diamond dusters conquered the Crimson baseball forces by a 7 to 6 score. Yesterday afternoon's clash on Soldiers Field produced brilliant as well as shoddy brands of ball as the rival aggregations fought out a battle bitterly-contested to the final play...
There were two out in the ninth inning with the Pennsylvanians holding a 7 to 4 lead. The initial and keystone sacks were occupied by pinch-hitter Ketchum and Nugent as McGrath connected with one of Hensil's curves for a smashing single, scoring Ketchum.

The left-handed Wildcat hurler let the last year's Crimson outfit down with six hits and fanned nine, facts which tend to show that today's contest may yet be a ball game worth seeing...
