Last night the Freshman Glee and Banjo clubs gave their last regular concert of the year at the town hall in Milton. The work of the two clubs was very good. Much the same programme as at the Cambridge concert was followed, and all the songs were heartily received. The Banjo club was at its best. The playing was almost perfect, and the club received an encore for every selection. After the concert a dance was held in the hall...
...both sides indulged in hard hitting, especially '90, who got an absurdly large number of hits-twenty-one with a total of thirty. Smith played the best game for '89 and saved many runs by stopping hard balls, and gained numerous bases by good sliding. Codman did good work with the bat getting five for ten, six times at the bat.

Harvard played a good up hill game after the second inning, and the tying of the score was due to steady, cool playing. The work of the infield was good with the exception of the short stop who played a rather listless game. The base running was poor, for the simple reason that the base runners did not pay close attention to the coaching Wilkesbarre got a run in the first on a hit, Cumming...
