...Freshman teams. The infield is still weak, but during the last few days the men have shown a little more accuracy and speed. Story at third base and Baldwin at first are both reliable men, but Lancy and Jackson at shortstop and second base are not covering enough ground. The outfield is slightly improved by the addition of Minton, who has been out of the game for some time. With the exception of Clark, Clarkson, Baldwin and Minton the men are weak at the bat, but as much time has now been given to batting practice an improvement is looked...
...infield did by far the poorest work that the team has done this year. Fincke and George made errors, and Kendall and Clark made mistakes in judgment which are inexcusable at this time in the season. The outfielders played well, especially Loughlin, who covered a great deal of ground and threw well to the infield. Bacon pitched well for Bowdoin and led his team in batting...
...afternoon, the cricket team was defeated by Brockton C. C. by the score of 49 to 44. Harvard went to bat first on an extremely soft wicket, and, although Lowry and Murray both made creditable stands, scored only 44 runs. When Brockton came to bat the condition of the ground had improved, but the wickets continued to fall at short intervals. With eight wickets down for but 16 runs, Brockton netted 33 points on the next two stands. Harvard. Drinkwater, l.h.w. Orton, 2 Fairweather, b. Orton, 0 MacNeill, b. Orton, 1 Murray, c. & b. Orton, 13 Lowry, b. Battles...
...about a week's practice under the coaching of Dr. Nichols, and is now in fairly good shape, except in batting, which so far has received little attention. The infield is very fast, but it is inclined to be erratic. The outfield is not yet covering enough ground...
Coburn and Milne form an excellent battery, although Coburn is still a little unsteady. Lovering at first covers a great deal of ground, but his throwing is weak; Keene at second has the same fault. Putnam and Clay at shortstop and third base are both playing very well, and seem to be doing the best work of the team. The outfielders, Quincy and Stuart, are both fairly good men, but their work so far has been slow. The other outfield position is unfilled...
