...costly passed ball by Kernan, let in two runs, which tied the score, 7 to 7. Matthews opened the last half of the inning for Harvard with a base-hit, and stole second. Clarkson then brought in the winning run with a timely two-base hit, thus relieving a serious situation...

...hard worker and covers a good deal of ground on foul flies. He has, however, fallen off in his batting within the last two weeks. Spencer, who is trying for centre field, is slow in starting and does not cover much ground. A lack of confidence is his most serious drawback at bat. His base-running, though fast, is careless. Gallagher, substitute for centre field, covers a good deal of ground, has a quick accurate throw, but is nervous at the bat. Bradbury is playing a consistently fast game at shortstop, but his batting and base-running are only fair...

...good. On Saturday some of the numbers in the first act were marred by hurrying; but the songs and dances are spirited and melodious almost without exception. Sometimes--notably in the chant to the sun-god at the opening of the second act--the music takes on a more serious character, but it is far from becoming heavy. The great success of the evening was made by the song and dance of the guards in the second act. The two entr'actes are by J. H. Densmore '04. The second is a vigorous march which met with much favor...
