...defeating Williams on Saturday at Williamstown. The game was rather a poor exhibition of ball playing, for the home nine had changed the positions of several of their men and errors were numerous in consequence. Corey, their substitute pitcher, did as well as could be expected considering the support that he received. For Harvard, Paine pitched steadily for seven innings, when Highlands took his place.
