In the sixth Lovering hit safe to centre, and Nichols knocked him home with another three-bagger, giving Harvard her first earned run. A wild throw by centre field let Nichols reach home on his hit.

As to precautions against fire, iron doors are considered very safe, but are in reality very dangerous, as a hot fire will cause them to curl within five minutes, leaving an open space at the top and bottom for the fire to enter.
