The freshmen defeated Phillips Exeter on Saturday, by a score of 9 to 3. Harvard failed to make any runs until the fifth inning, when, aided by Exeter's errors, she brought in three runs. In the seventh, Exeter went to pieces, and four more runs were credited the freshmen, while in the eight, they increased their lead by two more.

Exeter scored one run each in the first, sixth and ninth innings, one of them being earned.

Exeter's play was marked by wretched fielding, but the batting of Farrel and Haradon's excellent work on first, were the redeeming features.

Stevens played well for Harvard, making six put-outs with no errors. Cassatt at short stop appeared in much better from than in his previous games, while McAdams kept up his reputation as a good hitter by making three good singles. The batting of the team as a whole, was however, very unsatisfactory, and the base running showed lamentable weakness. Walker was unsteady in his catching, and showed no improvement in batting.
