Harvard played the Phillips Andover Academy team yesterday afternoon on Holmes field and won in a fairly well-played game. Andover has a very good team this year-much better than the average preparatory school nines. Stearns kept Harvard down well as regards hits, but he was wild in his delivery and gave eight bases on balls. Upton supported him finely, and made some very good stops, saving his pitcher several wild pitches. The team ran bases well, but Stearns' unusual wildness seemed demoralizing to the playing of the men.

Harvard played utterly without snap throughout the whole game. Mumford at short stop made several inexcusable errors. Henshaw's throwing was poor. Only six innings were played as Andover had to take an early train. Appended is the score:
