...need more names, however; not one-third or one-half, but the names of all the undergraduates. This is an undergraduate movement, an effort to set on foot an effective remedy for athletic distraction. If it fails, the Faculty's remedy will be the result. If it succeeds, the undergraduates themselves will be responsible for the maintenance of their sport...
...such a small score is nothing to be proud of. Only eight hits, two of which were doubtful, were all that the University team made off Baines. Hits as a rule were lacking at critical moments. In the first inning with only one out and men on second and third, a hit was not forthcoming. The same thing happened again in the sixth, while in the second, third, and fourth innings singles would have produced runs...

The former, with a timely two-bagger in the third when two were out, brought in two runs, but he had a tendency to take too great a lead off the bases...

The two runs in the third were the result of an error by Grattan, a hit by Dana, Currier's hit to the pitcher, and Pounds's two-bagger.

In the last inning it looked as if the score might be tied, when a base on balls and two singles brought in one run, but Walsh struck out and ended the game. The Exeter team with the exception of Grattan put up a very good game of ball...
