The University nine defeated Cornell yesterday in an easy game by the score of 11 to 1. The raw weather and Harvard's lead established at the very start made the game uninteresting. The team showed up well in batting, making fourteen hits and but two men striking out. The one bunt attempted was successful. The base running was at times brilliant, the double steal with runners on first and third being worked successfully; and again it was stupid when men were caught off first and second bases. In the field the team made four errors, two of which were wild throws. Cornell was weak at the bat, the one score being made by a home run.

Wendell at the bat was still troubled by his tendency to hit flies to the outfield. Skilton played a very fast and clean game at second base. Stillman pitched in excellent form, allowing Cornell only three hits, giving two bases on balls and striking out seven men. At the bat he made three clean hits. Carr made two bad errors, by throwing wild to first and second bases. Out of three times at the bat, however, he made two clean hits. Kernan showed improvement in his batting, but showed poor battery judgment in continually calling for high balls against wrist hitters.

In the first inning a base on balls, three hits and two errors brought in three runs; three hits, two bases on balls and one error added four more in the second; and a three-base hit and a single one more in the fourth. Two hits and two errors scored two runs in the seventh, and two hits and a wild pitch the last run in the eighth. Cornell scored once by a home run in the fourth inning.
