...made outside of the eighth inning, when Harvard bunched three clean hits but lost a chance to score through G. C. Clark's attempt to make three bases on his two-base hit to right centre. The failure to hit White does not necessarily indicate a slump in batting, for the ball was hit hard a number of times when Georgetown's fast fielding prevented safe hits. Such a showing against White, one of the best men pitching on college teams this year, is not discreditable. Georgetown did not hit Kernan hard, but bunched hits when they were needed...

Although the team played a fast and consistent game during the first half, which resulted in its favor, the second half was marked by a decided slump and a corresponding rally on the part of Newtowne which finally resulted in a tie game. The line-up, which continued the same during the whole game, was as follows: A. M. Goodridge, goal; Russell, point; Hardy, coverpoint; Laverack, F. S. Goodridge, Hoxie, Beardsell, forwards...
