THE RECORD BROKEN.

YALE, 2; HARVARD, 16.

On June 20th the Harvard nine for the second time met and defeated the Yale team, thereby performing a feat never before accomplished by any ??? in the intercollegi??? that of winning, all the games in the championship series.

In spite of the intolerable heat of the afternoon a crowd of almost 6,000 paying spectators gathered to witness the contest, while some 2,000 more watched the game as best they could from outside the fence. The reserved seats were crowded with ladies, by whom the crimson was liberally displayed.

THE GAME.Harvard went first to the bat and scored two runs, on a double by Winslow, a single by Nichols, and an error by Sheppard. Yale brought a man over the plate by a base on balls and a long drive to right field for three bases by Marsh. This closed Yale's score until the ninth inning, when the second and final run was made. Harvard failed to add to her score until the fifth inning, when singles by Beaman, Winslow, Nichols and Edgerly, and two attempted put-outs and a trio of errors resulted in seven runs. A hit by Nichols, two bases on balls, and another bunching of errors by Yale gave Harvard four runs in the sixth, and three runs more were netted in the seventh on singles by Nichols, Allen and Smith, and a three-bagger by Willard. The eighth and ninth innings proved unfruitful for Harvard, though hits were made by Foster and Willard.

Yale scored in the final inning on a hit by Marsh, aided by daring base running and Willard's only error.

The features of the game were the almost faultless battery work of Nichols and Allen, the strong batting of Harvard, and Edgerly's long throw from centre field to the plate, cutting off Merrill, in the seventh inning.

YALE.
