...right-fielder. Of the substitutes, E. N. Davis '09, pitcher, and D. Crocker '10, second-baseman, will not be back. Several others will return, however, and should prove valuable men to fill in the positions left vacant by graduation. R. S. Marshall '10 is a fast man for the infield; R. C. Brown '10 is a versatile player and may win a place either as catcher, first-baseman, or in the out-field; R. W. Hall '10, who played first-base a year ago will again be a candidate for that position; R. P. Jordan '10, substitute catcher, will also...
...Cushman '09, of Winchester, Mass., substitute infield, prepared at Andover. He is 23 years old, 5 feet, 7 inches tall, and weighs 146 pounds...
Yale was first at bat. Philbin reached first on an infield hit and Fels bunted, going to second on the mix-up which followed, while Philbin went to third. A fast double play.

In the second Sweeney and Van Vleck singled but were left. In Princeton's half of the same inning, Cunningham hit, stole second, and scored on an error by Badger. Ballin singled over second...

In that connection all that can be said is, the batting is appreciably stronger than last year...
...played but six regular games, the team has developed rapidly under Coach C. D. Moss '09. Of the games played four have been won, one tied, an 11-inning game with Hotchkiss at Lakeville, and one lost. Throughout the season the fielding has been good, especially that of the infield in spite of the fact that the team-play has been somewhat hampered by an injury to Kennedy, the regular first baseman. The batting, particularly that of Conant and Potter has been far above the general average of a Freshman team, though it is erratic at times...
