Yesterday afternoon the second Harvard lacrosse team beat the Andover team by a score of one goal to nothing. Two goals were fairly made but only one counted on account of a doubt. The playing was close, as the Andover team were in many cases superior runners. The Harvards were handsomely treated by the home team. The finest playing was done on our side by Rueter and Walsh. Marquand acted as referee. Next week the team will probably play two games, both in Cambridge.
