Harvard's new change battery gives promise of excellent work. Smith is very effective, and is as cool and self-possessed as any man in the pitcher's box. He has great command of the ball, and his judgment is always excellent. Henshaw, who has just entered college, is a splendid back stop, and throws with great swiftness and accuracy to the bases.

Dartmouth now made her first score on a two-bse hit by Quackenboss, a single by Chellis, and an error of judgment by Winslow, who held Scruton's fly to right field, but failed to field the ball home.
