...easy throw. All the men fielded cleanly, and threw with considerable accuracy. The batting of the team was only fair, although the opposing pitchers were not above average ability. The hits were, however, advantageously massed at opportune moments. In this department, Matthews did the best individual work, making four safe hits out of six chances at the bat including a three-base and a two-base hit. The base-running of the men showed great improvement over their work in practice. Fourteen bases were stolen among which may be mentioned a well executed double steal in the sixth inning...
...baseball by the score of 9 to 2. Despite the cold weather, Yale's fielding was accurate and the batting fair. Bowman pitched four innings and showed good judgment and fair control. Wescott, who pitched three innings, had good speed, and was very steady; he allowed only two safe hits; Allen finished the game in the box for Yale. The best individual playing was that of Raymond, the Wesleyan shortstop, who made a double play unassisted and a difficult catch of a high line ball...
...order to put the corporation in a safe position to begin business, it is necessary that its capital stock should be $40,000, the present net assets.

Under the plan adopted by the meeting of November 7, a provision is made for every present ticketholder...

Pennsylvania's disparaging estimate of Harvard's line was here shown by the fact that they chose to use rushing tactics rather than take the usual safe course of punting. But after gaining 8 yards a kick was forced and Marshall caught the ball 28 yards away. Harvard's third attempt to score was more successful and when the 3 yard line had been reached on 2 and 4 yards gains by Knowlton and the three backs, Graydon plunged through...
...pitching, which won for her the series with Priceton. Garvan has improved steadily during the year and is at present pitching in his best form, as is shown by his ability in the last game with Princeton to hold the opposing nine, of especially hard hitters, down to four safe hits and two scratches. Garvan, Guernsey at third base, Winslow at catcher and Barnwell at center field, are the four old players on the nine...
