...what would be the crowing stroke of calamity to our athletic interests. The 'varsity nine has shown at various and intermittent times that it can play winning ball. The college can rest assured that the nine will do its utmost to defeat Yale on Saturday if it receives proper support.

The redeeming feature of Harvard's work was the fielding of Mumford, who accepted seven difficult chances in centre field without an error. Linn's fielding and batting were also good. Harvard's only run was secured in the eighth inning on a clean base hit by Linn and errors of the league players. The score...
