...visiting right fielder led off with a single and was sacrificed to second in the fourth inning. Ray got a hit to center, and stole second while Daker was striking out. With two down, it seemed that Toulmin had pitched himself out of a bad hole, but he reversed his luck on the next play when he foozled Tobin's toss to catch the runner at first, and two runs scored. Captain Hammond followed this with his only error of the game and when Toulmin passed Moulton, the bases were filled. The Crimson hurler rose to the occasion, however...
...said: "She has a great heart." That was the way it was. The schools let out, the shipyards closed, the people swarmed to see. Miss Leitch let down first under the annoyance of unruly spectators, came grimly back from 2 down at the 34th to square at the 36th hole. Her second on the 37th was a hook, her third too delicate, her putt too great to sink. Meantime, Miss Wethered arched two shots true to the green, putted firmly past the hole as a sound golfer does, putted exactly back to its center as only a champion...
Yale came back in the ninth, however, to gain the verdict. Hammersley beat out a slow roller to Pollard, a lucky break for the Blue which put Barbee in a hole.

Barbee retired the next three men with little trouble, but Harvard went out in one-two-three order in the last half of the inning...
Mapes, playing against Captain Cummings of Yale, put up a stiff battle before he succumbed to the intercollegiate champion on the sixteenth green, 3 up and 2 to go. Captain Hodder gave Wattles an even harder fight and carried the match to the seventeenth hole. In the foursomes Mapes and Hodder played the best golf of the afternoon, although they fell before Wattles and Ordway on the nineteenth hole. Barnum and Bohlen conquered Tuttle and Haviland of Yale in a very closely contested match which they ended on the seventeenth...
...reader (I use the singular advisedly), are thoroughly familiar with the external aspects of your college. With the exception of the Geology Museum there is no building on your campus into which the inquisitive Freshman has not poked his eager nose by the first of October. You know every hole in the sidewalks of Spring Street. You call the open-handed shopkeepers by their first names. You say, "Hi, Toughey!" to every one you pass on the street. You know all the professors at least by name. You have definite places to eat your meals, and you can run charge...
