...game should be somewhat of a pitchers' battle between D. J. O'Keeffe '18 and Talcott. Of the two, O'Keeffe is undoubtedly the more effective, but has been hampered in the past by poor support. During the last two weeks, he has succeeded in developing a spit-ball which should carry him through any tight places today. Talcott will rely mainly on the use of a fast ball, fairly well controlled...
...hitting on both teams was light, but the poor condition of the field effected especially the University infield, which made four errors. L. B. Evans '20 injured his ankle in the first inning, when sliding to third base. R. Hoffman '19 replaced him in centre field...

His principles are sound and his results as good as can at this time be expected. To change horses in midstream is in any case poor policy. At such a crisis in the war, Englishmen are obligated to take no steps which may interfere with its successful prosecution...

Twice players were caught off base by the pitcher. Peirson, who, with Gammack formed the University battery, held Portland to four safeties and might have scored a shut-out except for poor support. Wolverton, who replaced Captain Gross at shortstop, played an excellent game in the infield, accepting six chances without error...
