McCall played a steady game at second after his lay-off, accepting seven chances without a misplay. Harding livened the team up on first considerably, and, though he let a grounder get through him in the first inning, he made some clever pick-ups of low throws, and by a splendid one-hand catch in the ninth prevented Simons's high throw from being an error. At the bat he showed good form, securing a timely single, and a neat sacrifice. Leonard played a finished game on third, getting everything within reach, and in the eighth started a fast double...

...Harvard has won the Northern Intercollegiate League championship. The season began with the southern trip during the April recess. On this trip five games were played, with some of the best teams in the country. Annapolis was defeated 7 to 1, and all the other teams held to exceptionally low scores. Johns Hopkins, the champion team of the Southern Intercollegiate League, was held to its low score of the season, 6 to 3. Harvard made an excellent showing in this game, considering that it was the team's first game of the season, while Johns Hopkins had played practice games...
...good work of Bangs and Little in the shot-put and of Harwood in the high jump were the principal cause of Harvard's good showing in the meet. More points would have been scored if Gardner had not fallen on the ninth hurdle in the 220-yard low-hurdle race and Blumer had not snapped a ligament in his thigh in the 220-yard dash...
