A close and exciting game was played between '85 and '88, yesterday afternoon. Both nines played a sharp fielding game, the freshmen doing especially well both at the bat and in the field. A beautiful fly catch each by Jones, Hallowell and Frost were the features of the game.

Appended is the score:
