...scrimmage. Several times Griffing made a good run down the field, dodging man after man, but numbers told, and he was finally stopped. Reisner and Naumberg also did good work in keeping their goal clear. Ninety-one had at least a dozen clear shots at goal, but all went wide. The attack crowded into goal badly, instead of drawing off, and seemed confused by their very superiority in numbers. A little cool, strong play would have made the score roll up to eight...
...Holmes Field, Saturday, Princeton received its fourth defeat by Harvard this season. About 2,000 people witnessed the game, which was remark-able for fine work of Bates. After the first inning, in which Harvard went to pieces and made a pure gift of two runs to Princeton, the support accorded Bates was excellent. The field work of both nines was good, Princeton excelling in this respect. The visitors could do nothing with Bates, eleven men striking out and two only reaching first on safe hits.

The last set went to Lee and Tallant with the same score as the first. making three sets straight...

But the last partnership (Sullivan and Norman) put 13 runs together, the venture closing for a total of 30, Sullivan's 10, not out, being the top score. Harvard being forty per cent. behind her opponent's score, was forced to follow on, and did better than in her first innings. Brown batted carefully for his 14; Ellis also batted in good form.
