...cricket team had an off day on Saturday in both batting and fielding. Only eight men went to Brockton, and the eleven had to be filled out by three Brockton substitutes. The Harvard team went to the bat first, but made a poor showing before the underhand bowling of Ward, Garrett alone, with 15, scoring double figures.

Whitehead made a poor kick and Harvard got the ball. Newell gained through the centre and Blagden almost scored. Henry soon scored...

A class which has distinguished itself in athletics should be ambitious of giving equally good support to the college papers; and this '93 has failed to do. We hope to see the class redeem itself, and to receive within the next few months enough contributions of satisfactory quality to enable us to fill several of the present vacancies...
