OWING to the University match, which was arranged for the afternoon, the game was begun at 11.45 A. M. Our Freshmen did not play as good a game as they have in previous matches, but had no difficulty in vanquishing their opponents. The good fielding of Perry and Ernst, and the batting of Tyng, Sleeper, and Kip, the latter making a home run, were noticeable features of the game.

Hodges made the very creditable score of no outs, seven runs, four base-hits, and two double plays. Harvard...
...readers will remember that the first game of the match between Harvard and Yale takes place at New Haven one week from to-morrow. About twenty men have agreed to take the half-fare tickets, should they be provided. We hope that every student who is able to do so will accompany our Nine to Yale. Hearty encouragement from a crowd of fellow-students will help our men far towards victory; besides which a good game may be expected, as both clubs are in excellent practice...
