VALE ALUMNI WEEKLY HARVARD WINS AT CAMBRIDGE. The Yale Nine, with Fearey in the Box, Easily Beaten at Sol- dier’s Field. _ Cambridge, June 23.—Yale lost the first game in the baseball series with Harvard this afternoon, in a loosely played contest by the score of 9 to 4. As it was the annual Commencement game here, there was the customary gathering of alumni and Class Day guests, and the victory for the home nine was the more popular because the fine work of Yale in the recent Prince- ton contests had diminished Harvard’s hopes of success. So great was the demand for seats that two new stands were erected on the field, but even these proved inadequate, and, long before the game was called, standing room only was announced at the ticket stand. The Yale contingent: occupied seats in the rear of the home plate and off third base. A delegation of Yale men from the Harvard Law School occu- pied a section and cheered the visitors, while the Yale men in the United States Navy,-formerly enlisted in the Connec- ticit Naval Militia, obtained shore leave for the afternoon and attended in uniform to the number of thirty or forty. They were the recipients of a round of cheers as they marched on the ground, and, during the game, the Aristotle frog chorus. alternated with the Navy cheer in their locality. Yale played her strongest Team with the exception of Fearey, who was in the box in place of Greenway. Har- vard, too, had her best Nine in the field with Hayes to do the twirling. Both teams hit the ball hard, but Harvard’s batters were more fortunate in bunch- ing their hits and earned nearly half their runs. The visitors bunched errors in the fifth and sixth innings with dis- astrous results. The features of Yale’s work in the field were a running catch of a foul fly by Wadsworth off Sears’ bat and the throwing to bases of Hazen, Greenway _and Camp. Wadsworth, Camp and Fearey led at the bat. For Harvard, Haughton assisted in a pretty double play and his work was generally ex- cellent. HOW THE RUNS WERE MADE. The game was well played for three innings. In the first hits by Burgess, Robinson and Haughton and a double by Reid netted Harvard two runs. Yale scored first in the second, Hazen going to first on balls and crossing the plate a moment later, when Fearey hit for three bases. Yale went to the front in her half of the fourth. Hazen again went to first on called balls and scored when Fearey and Sullivan hit safely. Errors by Lewis and Loughlin allowed Fearey and Sullivan to reach the plate. This ended Yale’s scoring. Harvard in her half added one run to her total, Sears going to first on four balls and scoring on a sacrifice hit and a single. In the following inning Harvard re- covered the lead, a single by Robinson and errors by Hazen and Greenway enabling two men to reach home. The sixth was even more disastrous to the Blue. Two scratch hits and a poor throw to second bw Fearey filled the bases. Hayes was forced at the plate on Burgess’ hit, but a wild pitch scored Chandler and Loughlin, Burgess go- ing to third. He scored on Haughton’s single. The last run was earned in the eighth, Burgess hitting the first ball pitched for three bases and coming in when Haughton singled past Hazen: The score: : HARVARD. AB.

His long term of office as our first Treasurer has wit- nessed the securing by the Yale Asso- ciation of Dwight Hall as its building, and the steady and prosperous growth of all departments of the work in this build- ing. It has also witnessed a growing relation of helpfulness between the stu- dents and their Graduate Committee,— ‘a relation which has been fostered by the establishment of the General Sec- retaryship and the efficiency of the capable men who have successively oc- cupied that position.” “During this period also the Yale Association has exerted a wholesome influence upon the whole — student brotherhood in our own and other lands. With the spirit of the entire work, in its world-wide relationships and activity, Mr. Dodge has been in constant sympathy. His faithful attend- ance upon Committee meetings, his wise counsel at critical times, and his prayerful, active sympathy have been essential factors in promoting this blessed work in the name of Christ among Yale students and among stu- dents of all lands. “Tt is with deep regret that the Com- mittee accepts his resignation, and with deeper gratitude that it enters upon its minutes this testimony to his fidelity and efficiency. His example will ever be an inspiration to his associates.” RicHARD C. Morse, Chairman of Committee. ~ Among other services of Mr. Dodge to the Association may be mentioned the fact that he bore the entire expense of the recent renovation of Dwight Hall.
