...Harvard nine received its first defeat of the season yesterday afternoon at the hands of the Marlboros. The game was called at the end of the sixth innings to enable the Marlboros to catch a train. Austin and Choate were the battery for Harvard, and Henshaw and Bingham did not play. Both teams batted well, but fielded rather loosely...
...lacrosse team met its first defeat yesterday afternoon on Jarvis at the hands of the South Bostons. The ball was placed promptly on time. After six minutes play, Blodgett secured the first goal and only goal for Harvard.

To recall the past may seem undesirable, but Harvard men can never forget the demonstrations of joy and the enthusiasm which was displayed a year ago, in the New York theatres and elsewhere, over the "whitewashing" given the Harvard champions on their own grounds, and, therefore, we cannot deem it unmannerly to hint that the account is now square, and to declare that Harvard is able to compete once more...
...been, as is usually the case with the amateur nines which Harvard plays, walkovers. Practice has been carried on at a great disadvantage. The caprice of Cambridge weather, has made its effect more potent than ever, and if the elements have designs, they have done their prettiest to make defeat certain for Harvard, or else to make the victory more brilliant, since the obstacles, which they have thrown in our path have been great...
