...effective as he was in the last two games at Providence. During most of the game he had good control but in the fourth inning he gave three bases on balls and allowed one hit, which, with an error by Dean, gave Brown two runs. Scannell gave him splendid support and saved a number of wild pitches. Not a man on either side tried to steal second. Chandler played an excellent game and all three of the outfielders had plenty to do. The one error by Burgess was a very excusable muff of a short fly. Haughton was the only...

...game opened with Brown at the bat, and for three innings only one man reached first base. Harvard had a splendid chance to make some runs. Dean went to first on balls, and after Scannell had struck out, Burgess also walked to first. Clarkson's grounder forced Dean at third, but Haughton's hit filled the bases. Rand could only hit an easy ball to Summersgill. In the second inning Paine and Chandler were given bases on balls, but Paine was forced at third. Scannell was then declared out, being hit by batted ball, although his hit did not come...

...community just as it is. But the American press is not today actuated by the purpose to tell men the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The mirror is warped and shows us wrong in an utterly distorted form. The journalist's life is one of splendid opportunity, for the press today is sorely in need of men who will deny their pocketbook to maintain their manhood. The true greatness of a journal is not to be measured by its circulation, but by the truth it tells and the influence it wields...

...game was rather loosely played, Harvard had much the better team and excelled both in the field and at the bat. Paine pitched a steady and effective game and allowed U. of P. but seven hits. He was well supported by Scannell who caught and threw to bases in splendid form...

Paine pitched a splendid game for Harvard and to him is due most of the credit for the victory. Only three hits were made off him in eight innings and he struck out ten men. In the ninth inning when the game was practically won, Pennsylvania made four hits which brought in two of her runs. There were two men on bases when Voight made the third out trying to take second on his single...
