Harvard defeated the Beacons yesterday in a poorly played and uninteresting game. The Beacons put Nichols, the old Harvard pitcher, in the box, and he was batted freely by Harvard. He was very wild, giving seven men bases on balls. Smith, who played first base for Harvard several years ago, covered that bag for the Beacons. Harvard presented a weak nine. With four regular men on the sick list, she had some difficulty in collecting a worthy representative team. The batting on the Harvard nine was well distributed, every man but one getting a hit. The batting of the Beacons was confined to two men, Richardson batting hard every time he stepped to the plate Boyden started in to pitch for Harvard, but retired in the seventh, Bates taking his place in the box. The Beacons made two good double plays Willard caught two difficult fouls. McAloon played excellently at short for the Beacons. Egan's umpiring was poor, the Beacon's suffering the most from his decisions. The score:-
