CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June 26. "A 10-inning

not to be seer every day, but IL, 900 to 5000
people watched such on Holmes field.
The ball players from New Haven got a
lead OF two runs and kept 1t until the
seventh inning. Then a base on balls, one
hit, an error and fine b Use running by
Frank Hallowell tied the score.
After that things changed, and the Yale
men lost good deal of their snap, and the
home players seemed TO pick up just what
their opponents dropped. Carter began to
weaken a little, and in the last half of the
10th inning Upton scored the final run,
and Harvard won, 3 toe.
Harvard made but one hit and Yale
made three. That statement alone shows
