After the disastrous first inning, Harvard played a game which, if continued, will bring the championship to Cambridge. The entire nine batted hard, few men striking out. Gallivan made his first error in a championship game, an excusable muff of Bates' throw in attempting to put King out at second. Willard led his side at the bat. For Princeton, King and Dana did good work. The score...
...stated in the Times of this morning that Mrs. Pierrepont had given $125,000 to Yale University for the erection of a memorial building in memory of our son, who died in Rome three years ago.

...curriculum of that university. Men with these placards fastened to the ends of long poles paraded the grounds, ringing bells and acting about as childishly as boys in their kindergartens might be expected to do. During the game the spectators applauded and yelled with delight at every error Harvard made. As for the umpire, that individual so far lost his head when the score was tied in the eighth inning as to toss his hat high in the air, and did not recover his equanimity until one of the spectators, more impartially disposed than the rest, reminded...
