Yale Victorious.


 She Wins Her First College Came
 Brown Defeated i'm an Exciting Game.
 Yesterday afternoon Yale played her first college game this season, and defeated Brown quite easily. There was some delay in start ing the game, but finally MT. Donne1ly ap- peared and umpired to the satisfaction of all. Yale strangely won the toss, and Dilts was the first man at the bat. He hit an easy fly to Badger, Green struck out, and Bassett feuled out to s. Hopkins. For Yale, Platt then fouled out to first, and Camp hit the first ball pitched him for three bases. Hopkins was thrown out at first, and Badger struck out, leaving Camp on third. Smith, of Brown. then knocked fly to Camp. Chase hit an easy one to Badger, who threw it over Hopkins head, whither Jones followed it in- | stead of staying in his position as he ought to have done. By the new rules ball stop ped by an outsider must be declared 8 s'block'' ball, and must be returned to the pitcher in his position before it is in play, and meanwhile the runner can circle the bases. Consequently Jones had to run back ] to his position with the ball, and when he got l there the runner had reached home plate, | giving Brown the first run. Doron hit fly l to Wilcox, Durfee made base hit, and Shedd | fouled out Smith, of Yale, was thrown out at first Wilcox made hit, and on Paine | error went to third, where he stayed, Jones being thrown out and Hubbard going out on a foul. Score, Brown l, Yale 0. Paine then l fouled out, Dilts struck out, and Green hit a 1 grounder to first. For Yale, H. Hopkins and Platt each hit the ball for one base, Camp struck out, and s. Hopkins made 8 sacrifice hit to bring in H. Hopkins but by clumsy l play on the part of Chase reached his base. Badger then went out on fly, and Smith | fouled out Yale 1, Brown 1. Bassett was 1 thrown out at first, Smith made hit, Chase 1 hit fly to Badger, and Smith was thrown l out ill trying to reach second. Wilcox then struck out, and Jones and Hubbard and difficult liner to S. Hopkins, who held it. Durfee made 8 hit, Shedd went out at first, ! and Paine struck out. For Yale, H. Hopkins went out at first, Platt hit to third, who threw it over first baseman, enabling Platt to score. Camp fouled out and s. 1 Hopkins hit to third, who again threw it too high, giving Yale another::run. Badger hit fly to right field. Score, Brown 1, Yale B. Diss hit fly to left, Green made 8 two baser, reached third on passed ball and scored on 8 long hit to center, which Smith caught. This was 1 Browns last run, as her men went out in the next three innings in one, two, three order, l except that Chase in the ninth inning reached 1 first on a base hit and was left there. In the sixth and seventh innings Yale was retired in ! one, two, three order, but in the eighth, after Camp and s Hopkins were out, Badger made a hit, stole second beautifully and came home on hits by Smith and Wilcox, who were left on bases, Jones hitting fly to ! Chase. This defeat was more decisive than that which Brown suffered at Cambridge, and comparison of the scores of the two l games shows Yale to have the best nine of | the three. In the college series Harvard, l Yale and Brown have each won game, l Brown has lost two and Dartmouth one. Ap- l pended is the full score of yesterdays game:
