VERMONT DEFEATED 10 TO 1

Largely aided by Vermont, the University baseball team won an easy game Saturday, 10 to 1. The visitors got but one scratch hit, and made seven errors, while their pitchers handed out 12 passes; obstacles over which it would be difficult to win any ball game. The University, on the other hand, found Spear and Parmer for nine safeties, one a home-run, and with one exception gave Garritt's steady pitching air-tight defence.

The University nine early took a substantial lead, making four runs on the succession of two passes, two hits, and two errors. Another was added in the fourth, two in the sixth, and one in the seventh; in all cases Vermont's misplays counting heavily. One example of Vermont's methods of assisting the University runners around the bags was the careless overthrowing of the pitcher in attempting to catch the runner napping at first, allowing the runner to make one or two extra bases. Percy's free trip to first and Fripp's home-run to deep centre in the eighth inning completed Harvard's scoring.

Garritt opened the way for the visitor's lone run by passing Berry. Fripp then juggled Parmer's hit long enough to allow Berry to reach third. Parker fanned, but Morse, batting for Spear, knocked a grounder to Nash, who threw Parmer out at second. The "first and third double steal," one of the University's own pet plays, followed and gave Vermont a run.

The most unsatisfactory feature from the point of view of the University team was the inefficient coaching from the base-lines. Three times were University runners caught off bases, twice costing certain runs.
