...plenty of life and determination. The outfield contributed some of the finest plays seen on Soldiers Field this year. In the first of the thirteenth Harvey sprinted to deep left centre and pulled down a hard drive of Wadsworth's. In the tenth Harvey made a swift and accurate throw to Currier off Young's hit that held Hamilton on third and gave Currier a chance to throw Young out at second. Dana and Aronson also did their share to prevent runs. With three on bases and one out in the ninth, Templeton knocked a fly to right field...

A grounder to Lanigan by Templeton resulted in a put-out at second and would have been a double if the bag had been covered sooner. Templeton was successful in stealing second as the throw was bad.

Two hits and a base on balls filled the bases with only one out. Templeton then sent a liner to Aronson...
...first two places in the hammer-throw came out as was expected. Talbott was unable to get off one of his best throws and his distance was only 3 feet, 7 1-2 inches ahead of that made by Horr of Syracuse. Goebel of Yale showed more improvement on the second day than did his team-mate Andrus and defeated sullivan of Cornell for third by 2 feet, 5 1-2 inches...
