...fourth inning MacLaughlin reached first on an error by the shortstop. Dana and Briggs flied out, but Simons made a long three base hit to centre field, and came home for the second run of the inning on Hicks's hit to right. Cornell made its first run in the same inning when Caldwell hit to the right field fence for three bases, and scored on Ebeling's grounder to first...
Harvey made Harvard's last run in the seventh. Lanigan reached first on an error but was caught at second. Harvey singled to right, stole second, and reached home on two passed balls. Cornell brought the run back, however, in the last half of the inning. Ebeling opened with a long three-bagger, and scored when MacLaughlin muffed Williams's drive. Matchneer struck out, and Judson was safe at first on a fielder's choice, which retired Williams at third. A hit by Howard was fielded to third by Aronson, and Lanigan threw to Simons, who put out Judson. Howard...
...times; Ernst allowed but five scattered hits and struck out seven men. Foster, the Cornell pitcher, was ineffective, but the high score was due in part to the erratic support given him by his team. Until the seventh inning the game was fairly close. The Freshmen secured two runs in the first inning on a series of stupid errors; two more runs were made, one in the fourth and the other in the sixth, due to timely hitting. In the seventh inning the Freshmen found Foster for a number of safe hits, Including a double and a scratch triple, which...
...appearance of the magazine. The old-timer will take more pleasure in philosophizing over the past records which follow. It is a pity that the dates are not given in the table of collegiate records. How many Harvard men of today know that Wendell Baker's quarter-mile, though run straightaway, was merely one of a series of extraordinary performances on his part. His records appear on a special board in the meeting room of the Gymnasium, but what reader of the Illustrated would go near the Gymnasium! Kilpatrick's half-mile should scarcely be called a collegiate record...
Although Harvard secured the majority of points, three other colleges had the satisfaction of setting new records. The most extraordinary performance of the day was the running of Taylor of Cornell in the two-mile. His time of 9 minutes, 27 3-5 seconds, is not only a new I. C. A. A. A. A. and collegiate record, but is the best amateur performance ever made in America. The former record was 9 minutes, 34 4.5 seconds, made by Rowe of Michigan in 1907. Almost as wonderful was the time made by Paull of Pennsylvania in the one-mile run...
