THE PRINCETON BALL GAME.

It is now four years since the University baseball team defeated Princeton, and we have had reason to believe that the feat was well-nigh impossible. But this year our hopes have been raised by the team's enviable record in the earlier part of the season, and we trust that the "hoodoo" will be broken today. The University team has been meeting and defeating teams which have had much more competition than it this spring, and has proven that Harvard has one of the best college nines in the country. A comparison of the scores of the two teams so far this season gives promise of a close game today. Princeton has broken even with Virginia and Georgetown, both defeated by the University team, and lost to Fordham, which met defeat on Soldiers field last week.

If the pitching strength and general fielding ability of Harvard are supplemented by the same opportune hitting that was show in the Amherst game last Wednesday, the team should have more than an even chance of winning today.
