The new style of batting at which the men have been coached lately first showed its good results yesterday. Priest, the star pitcher of the Cornells, was knocked out of the box in three innings, and his successor fared no better than he had. The 'varsity made twenty-one safe hits and there were two particularly satisfactory features of this hitting. Only eleven balls were put up in the air, and, with the exception of four strike outs and a foul tip, every other hit was on the ground. Again the men did not try to knock long hits; all but one of the hits were singles and this promises well for team playing in batting.

Frothingham, owing to a sprained ankle, did not play. Hovey took his old place at second and Ma on played in right field. Abbott distinguished himself at third handling without an error his six chances. Hallowell made a beautiful catch in centre.

Cornell made four hits but these netted a total of nine. They did not put up the game that was expected of them. In the second, they went all to pieces, seven errors were made in this one inning and Harvard's scoring began, For the rest of the runs, the heavy hitting was mainly responsible. The score:

HARVARD.
