The Cricket Eleven Wins.

The cricket team defeated the Staten Island Cricket Club yesterday on the latter's grounds by a score of 80 to 79. Only one inning was played. Staten Island took the first bat and Harvard easily won out with four wickets to spare.

This afternoon the team will play its first game in the intercollegiate series with the University of Pennsylvania at the Manheim grounds in Germantown. Considering Pennsylvania's poor showing against Harvarford on Wednesday, the Harvard team has excellent chances to win the game today.
