...start will be promptly at 2.30 and the race will take about an hour. The finish will be near St. Mary's street, on the Beacon street boulevard. There will probably be a large number of entries from each club, but only the first five men from each side will count at the finish. There will be a run over the course today and Thursday in order that the competitors may become familiar with the turns. The joint committee have considered the question of a perpetual challenge cup, and have found it to be impracticable at present. Both clubs...
Edgerly scored the only run for his side in the fourth inning on Linn's muff, a steal, and Codman's base hit. In the first inning Linn and Willard got first on called balls.

Linn hit safely and scored on Howland's two-base hit. Only six innings were played. In the last, Linn and Willard made base-hits, and Henshaw...

From this time they kept increasing their advantage, until they had 5 inches at the end of four minutes, and a foot when time was called. The arrangements on the shoulders of the Columbia rope men evidently gave them a great help, not only in holding, but in pulling, for by this...
...penalties for rough play have been made very severe. The rule reads: "A player will be disqualified for hacking, striking with closed fists, or unnecessary roughness. For intentional tackling below the knees, butting, tripping and throttling, the other side gets twenty-five yards or a free kick. If twenty-five yards would carry the ball over the line, then half the distance from the place where the "off play" occurred, to the goal line will be granted...
