...mowed down by the CRIMSON crew and at the end of the contest the score board read: CRIMSON 5, Lampoon 4. All of the CRIMSON runs were earned; the Lampoon quota was merely lent to them for the afternoon by its generous opponents. From the moment when the Lampoon twirler pitched over the backstop for the first strike of the afternoon, the outcome was never in doubt. The CRIMSON infield was absolutely tight, and Lampy's punch was of no avail. The barrage of hits from CRIMSON bats gave the funny men no chance to retire; candidates were rushed...

...were the only important college nines that the rain failed to keep apart, the Tigers coming out on the long end of a 7 to 5 contest. The Elis started with a rush, piling up five runs in the first four innings and driving Thompson, the Orange and Black twirler, to the bench.
