NEW YORK, June 27.-Harvard took
the final athletic honors Of the college

tory in the varsity boat race at New
London Thursday and her base bali vic.
tory at Cambridge last week with the
capture of the final game in the annual
series from tho team Of "Old Eli'' at the
Polo grounds by the score Of 8 to s.
A typical crowd Of 5000 college enthu-
siasts witnessed the game, their crimson
and blue pennants Frightening the grand.
stand and the bleachers. Their songs and
yells and bursts OF spontaneous cheering
made the scene one Of continuous ANNA
ton. The game itself. although marked
by loose fielding, was exciting. Yale made
a plucky fight and kept things interesting
to the end. There was plenty Of heavy
hitting, including two home runs. Aron-
son for Harvard batted one and Williams
Of Yale the other.
How the Game Was Won.
The game was won and lost in the third
inning.
Hartford Of Harvard was safe on Fels

was never in doubt. Tad Jones took out

hitting and Hartford's unsteadiness The

Sunday School League Notes.

Following are the games scheduled for
this week: Monday First VS.. Ninth
Tuesday, Waugh VS.. Bethany: Wednes-
day, Grace VS.. Fifth: Thursday. Bethany
VS.. First; Friday, Waugh VS.. Ninth; Sat
urday, open date.
The article of ball that the Ninth Street.
ers have been putting up Of late has no,
at all been up to expectations. These boys
were tagged as being out to cop the
rag but their recent showing seems to
make them look as If they are entirely out
of the running. Sullivan's fielding at sec
ond in the last few games has not at all
been up to his standard and he has also
fallen off greatly in his batting. In the
Ninth Fifth contest Wednesday Syman-
oSkie was sent in to do the twtrling.
Sym twirled, but was wild, giving
six bases on balls, owing to the fact that
he pitched Tuesday in the Marquette
League for the St. Vincent team. The
Ninth Street boys are capable of putting
up as good an article of ball as any nine
In the league.
Hence Maple is clouting the sphere
into safe territory. In the two games that
his team played last week he was at bat
seven times and connected safely six, two
being doubles.
Pop" Kerper brought the crowd to its
feet in the Ninth-Fifth contest Wednes-
day when he hit the ball for four sacks.
Bueher's catch of a Texas Lacquer in
the game Wednesday was neat piece Of
work.
In the Waugh-Grace contest Tuesday
Birch. who started the work on the slab
for Grace, was hit so hard by the Waugh
batsmen that he was forced to take a
seat on the bench. Kerr took up the sit
uation and held his opponents safe.
Neugent was on the rubber for the Fifth
boys Tuesday. 1t was the first time Sill
played since last season and he was well
received. He pitched his team to victory.
Kemp was signed with the Fifth Bap-
lists and played in the two games last
week in the absence Of "Pewee'' Evans.
He secured three bingles and accepted
seven fielding chances without an error.
Herbert connected safely Tor the first
time this season Wednesday.
krahling played the game OF his life
Thursday. He had a slow day In the field,
but out OF four trips to the plate he con-
nected for two doubles and a single.
scored two runs and pilfered three sacks.
Mccormick was called upon twice in
Fridays contest to sacrifice and each time
Mac laid the ball down in neat style.
Six two-base hits and q triple were the
extra base hits made In Fridays contest
between Grace and First.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUE.
Game tomorrow-Ffrst W. Ninth.
Bethany Defeats Ninth.

On account Of the heavy rain yesterday
afternoon neither the Bethany nor the
Ninth street team had nine Of its regular
players. so each team was patched up
and an exhibition game was played and
it proved to be an interesting affair. The
Bethany team won out after nine in
nings of play by the close score Of to 6.
Eight hits were made OF the delivery Of
Hammond, who served them up for Ninth.
He struck out four and passed three.
Dodd started the box work for the
Bethany aggregation and retired after
the fourth inning In favor of Linthicum.
Four hits were made off Dodd, while he
famed one and walked two. Linthicum
took up the situation after the fourth
session and pitched better ball than did
Dodd, but he did not receive as good sup
port. He passed none and struck out two
men for every inning that he twirled.
Jimmy Hughes. the popular umpire Of
the league, was in the lineup with the
Ninth boys and cut a big figure in the
game. He played good ball both behind
the bat and at first, and also cracked
pair of two-base hits. Linthicum had nine
fielding chances and handled them all
in first-class style and the playing of
Dodd led with the willow, getting two
doubles and a single, and stole two bases
Noyes, Ninths crack little backstop, took
care of the indicator and only one kick
was made on his decisions and this came
when he called a strike on Jimmy"
Hughes, which the latter said was a lit
tie high, and the only reply that Noyes
could give was that he was getting back
at Jimmy" The score:
