Harvard defeated the Amherst college team on Holmes field yesterday by a score of seven to one. Harvard braced up and played a very creditable game throughout, and clearly outdid her opponents at every point.

Harvard played utterly without snap throughout the whole game. Mumford at short stop made several inexcusable errors. Henshaw's throwing was poor. Only six innings were played as Andover had to take an early train. Appended is the score...
