For two innings last Saturday the University nine arose in its wrath and smote the Brown bear so lustily that a 7 to 0 score showed on the score-board. Even this advantage was not enough for victory, however, for in the ensuing seven rounds the Crimson made its poorest showing of the season, dissipated its early lead, and lost 10 to 7. As Yale took the measure of a Princeton team which had twice beaten Harvard with ease, the net result of the afternoon was decidedly damaging to Crimson hopes against the Blue.

Trumbower Driven to Showers

Trumbower was far from the puzzle to Harvard batters that he was at Cambridge Wednesday, and he was driven from the rubber in one and a fraction innings. Two runs were registered in the first on a hit by Zarakov, a three-bagger by Todd, and a sacrifice fly by Tobin. Five more hits were added in the second on a single by Ullman, two bases on balls, a hit batsman, an error, and a single by Tobin. Neubauer, who relieved Trumbower in the box, was thereafter almost unhittable. A single by Knowlton, a double by Samborski, and a triple by Burgess all with the bases empty, was the sum of the Harvard attack in the last seven innings.

Brown scored once in the second, and in the fourth drove Roulmin to the showers with a barrage of hits, one of them a homer by Keeper, which left the Brunonians but two runs astern as Spalding took up the pitching burden. A pass, a triple by Hoffman, and a single by Ruckstall evened the score in the fifth. Three more safeties accounted for another score in the seventh, putting Brown ahead, and an error by Slayton paved the way for two superfluous tallies in the eighth.
