NEW HAVEN. June 20-An enor-
nous commencement crowd is today
recovering from the surprise which was
handed out TO Yale yesterday when
Harvard won the opening game Of tho
baseball series by s to 2.
It was the most unexpected and hu-
initiating baseball defeat that Yale has
suffered at the hands of the men from
Cambridge in years, but even the most
prejudiced concede that the Blue was
outclassed in every department Of play.
Harvard celebrated the opening of the
game by home runs by Potner and Nc
Loughlin. and from then on Yale was In
the ruck. The home pitchers were help
less before The Harvard batters, and
unless Yale shows a marked improve
ment in the next game a third con-
test will not be necessary.

men is not definite, however, and either
Ferguson or Ryan may be called upon
at the last moment. Ryan,, 1t will be

the Laborites, and the second choice
will undoubtedly rest with him. The

Games between these two teams are

Takoma and Brightwood worried along

Manager Pattison's team succeeded in
making more runs. 1t was a misera BILE

fourteen errors cropping up during the
game.
Pattison, the Takoma first sacker, had
a perfect day at bat, making three hits
out of as many attempts. On the oc-
casion Of his other two trips to the plate
he waited for free tickets.
Brightwood made only five hits off
Schrieder, and the fact that IL scored
ten runs was due to Takomas weird
fielding. Nine errors were credited to
the team, Ely, on short, being respon-
sible for four.
Blair Thomas, Takoma's lanky out
fielder, was in hitting form, landing for
four safeties.
One Takoma player who did good
work was Eiseman, on second. During
the afternoon he had five put-outs and
three assists. all of which he handled in
approved fashion. AS his share of the
