...Yale obtained a tremendous lead in the first inning but the Harvard team played pluckily an up hill game and kept up heart till the last. Harvards's errors were very costly. Twice wild throws let in three unearned runs. These unexcusable errors, however, were confined to one or two men on the team, and the others played well straight through. There is one point, nevertheless, in which the nine must make vast improvement if they hope to make a creditable showing. We refer to the batting, which was deplorably weak. Unless the nine make a great advance in this...
...annual intercollegiate game were held at the Berkely Oval, New York, Saturday afternoon. Harvard failed to win first place but her representatives showed up well. Although only winning two first prizes, Harvard had a large number of exceedingly close seconds. In the bicycle race to be contested today, Harvard may win first place.

In the mile walk McIlvaine forged ahead...
Another ten inning game was played on Holmes field yesterday afternoon between the freshmen and the Fall River High School team. Ninety-two played without snap, and the baserunning as usual was poor.
