After the first inning when Fitz pitched a rather uncertain game, allowing Dartmouth to score three runs, the 'Varsity had everything its own way and scored almost at will. Patey was found for sleven hits, and behind the bat was poorly supported by Drew. Many of Harvard's runs were the result of passed balls, while Laughlin and Haughton both made two bases on strike outs which were poorly fielded...

...rowing from the 'Varsity house have joined their class eights at the Weld. This recent addition of material has increased the number at the latter house by nearly thirty. The different crews have been very much shaken up, and the men so changed about that everything is in an uncertain condition. From now on, however, the crews will row as they are at present made up.
