Yesterday's practice was long and of an elementary nature, preparatory to the game this afternoon. The signal practice of team A was slow and at times resulted in serious bungling, noticeably when the forward pass was attempted. Out of eight tries only two passes were successful.

Although the second made a total of nine hits this hitting was certainly not due to good batting ability on the part of the Harvard players, the opposing pitchers being very weak. The second as it played yesterday would be an easy victim for any first-class school or Freshman team...

The one encouraging feature of the game from a Harvard standpoint was Felton's pitching. He had good control and struck out ten men. Felton has averaged six bases on balls a game, but Saturday he did not give a single pass...
