...game yesterday was almost a repetition of Monday's game with weak batting and poor fielding. Team B obtained a good lead in the first four innings but was forced to play its hardest to prevent A from winning.

...have alternated about evenly in the games played thus far. The ends are still weak, and the development of the leading candidates has been hindered by injuries. Coffin has played regularly at left end when in condition. His weight has proved valuable in the offense, but he is slow, especially on kicks. At the other end Neal, Hare and Moorhead have been tried. Neal was doing the best work of the three until his injury in the Wesleyan game. He also has an advantage in weight over the other two men. The best of the substitute line-men appear...
