Saturday afternoon the Freshman lacrosse team defeated the Columbia University freshmen on Soldiers Field in their final game of the season by the score of 6 to 0. The victory of the Freshmen was due chiefly to their strong defense, although errors of judgment destroyed several chances which Columbia has for scoring. In the first ten minutes of play, Sampson scored twice for the Freshmen and before the end of the first half Burr and Smith each made a goal. Early in the second half Barnard scored, and Alexander, after he has secured the ball from a scrimmage, made a goal in the last five seconds of play. The game was unusually clean, not one foul being called. Sampson and Burr did the best work for the Freshmen; for Columbia, Finlay and Blumenthal played well.
The line-up: The summary: Score-Harvard 1910, 6; Columbia 1910, 0. Goals-Sampson 2 Burr, Smith, Barnard, Alexander. Referees-H. E. Porter '09 and S. S. Sheip '09. Goal umpires-Schlossman of Columbia, and B. M. Vance '08. Timekeeper-M. Waide '10. Time-20-minute halves.
