Yesterday afternoon on Holmes field the university nine met the Hartford's, a professional team belonging to the Atlantic League. It has the reputation of being a strong nine, and although beaten Harvard showed up well against them except in the first part of the eighth inning when the game was practically given away, Hawley pitched for Harvard.

Henshaw got first on balls, but Mumford put the side out by a short fly to first. The base-running in this inning was the worst part of the Harvard game. Princeton started off well. Durell with a hit for two bases, and Payne with a single; a wild pitch brought them both home...
