...Yale, and on Saturday next runs against a proposition which will either make or break her --Cornell. Harvard has been working hard on her defence since Haughton took charge, and the Ithacans will be certain to run up against a barrier on Saturday. Whether they will be able to smash or top it remains to be seen. It isn't likely the Crimson will produce anything elaborate on attack; it's difficult to see how she can. Cornell, judging from the Bucknell game, isn't as far along as she'd like to be, either. Trouble on the ends...
...fourth inning by making a pretty running catch of Ormsby's rap to left field and then by doubling Murray at second, who was well on his way toward scoring. Abbot similarly closed out Brown in the eighth with a running stop of Ormsby's hard smash through Garritt. Harte was the star of the day at bat, knocking out two long and high triples to right field...

...ball laterally over the heads of the opposing men who have been drawn in in an attempt to stop the play. The pass goes toward the sideline to either of Yale's two backfield men who have gotten outside of the opponent's extreme defensive man. Plunges expected to smash the opponent's defence, fast end runs, and varied uses of the forward pass are the other important factors in her offensive machine...
...team Saturday afternoon in a loosely played game by the score of 9 to 3. Captain McLaughlin, of the 1909 team, pitched for the former collegians and held the second team batters to seven scattered hits, incidentally fanning 11. The features of the game were Safford's home run smash to left, and Phillips's catch of Minot's liner...
