Yesterday morning the Crimsons and Volunteers played their second game for the amateur championship. The game was the closest and best played of any, thus far, both sides playing an almost errorless game. For six innings both teams went out in one, two, three order, the work of the batteries being extremely effective. After that, the Volunteers, by timely hits and by an error of the second baseman of the Crimsons, scored the winning runs, as their lead was too great to be overcome.

First Goal. - At the draw the ball went to Princeton's goal and was held there for a short time by accurate passing, when it went to the other end of the field our defence promptly returned it. This was repeated again and again. The play on both sides was remarkably clean; there was little fumbling. Harvard kept possession of the ball well, but Princeton covered very closely and prevented many clear shots. After about forty minutes play our attack made a brace; they squirmed in and around the Princeton men quite easily, and after a number of unsuccessful tries...
