...last minute, Cleveland, remembering their defeat by Yale, Friday night, decided not to spot the visitors four points handicap, but to start from scratch. The western riders scored two goals in the first chukker, thus putting themselves in the lead, but five goals for Harvard in the next period, gave the visitors a lead that was never overcome. G. O.
