...number of years, Pennsylvania has developed a nine this season which will probably take a place of the first rank in college baseball. Last year Harvard had no difficulty in winning both of its games, but the Pennsylvania nine has been considerably strengthened this spring by the development of Dickson and Brown as pitchers and the general improvement in both fielding and batting form. Within a week they have defeated both Cornell and Brown in remarkably close and well played games...
