HARVARD DEFEATED.

Harvard was whitewashed yesterday for the first time this year, and thus lost the last scheduled game with Brown, which it was very important to win. Each team has now won two games and no deciding game has been arranged. Strangely enough each team has lost both the games on the home grounds. In spite of the defeat there is some consolation in the fact that Harvard is the only team which has won two games from Brown this year.

The sole cause for the loss of the game was Harvard's weak batting. Summersgill had the opposing batsmen completely at his mercy and never lost his head at critical moments. Several times a hit at the right time would have brought in runs for Harvard, but no one was equal to the occasion. A large number of men hit grounders to Summersgill who had nine assists and made several pretty stops. The Brown infield played the finest game that has been seen in Cambridge this year and cut off several apparently safe hits. Brown was fortunate in bunching her hits at the right time, and also did some very clever sacrifice hitting.

Paine pitched well enough for Harvard to have won any ordinary game, but was not nearly so effective as he was in the last two games at Providence. During most of the game he had good control but in the fourth inning he gave three bases on balls and allowed one hit, which, with an error by Dean, gave Brown two runs. Scannell gave him splendid support and saved a number of wild pitches. Not a man on either side tried to steal second. Chandler played an excellent game and all three of the outfielders had plenty to do. The one error by Burgess was a very excusable muff of a short fly. Haughton was the only man who could bat with any effect.

The game opened with Brown at the bat, and for three innings only one man reached first base. Harvard had a splendid chance to make some runs. Dean went to first on balls, and after Scannell had struck out, Burgess also walked to first. Clarkson's grounder forced Dean at third, but Haughton's hit filled the bases. Rand could only hit an easy ball to Summersgill. In the second inning Paine and Chandler were given bases on balls, but Paine was forced at third. Scannell was then declared out, being hit by batted ball, although his hit did not come anywhere near being fair.

Brown crossed the plate first in the fourth inning, when Dean's error, a hit, and three bases on balls gave two runs. In the next inning Fultz made a home run, although Rand almost caught his hit. The last run was made in the ninth inning. Phillips's fly would have been easily caught by Rand but fell into the willows. He scored on a sacrifice and a single. Harvard did not reach third except in the fifth inning, when Scannell made a two-base hit and Burgess sacrificed. Clarkson, however, hit a fly to Brady.
