Harvard, 51; Lowell, 27.

The Harvard Cricket Eleven started the season well by winning the first match with Lowell by a score of 51 to 27. A great deal of credit for the game is due to the bowling of Clark and Lippincott. There was no large individual score on either side, but the runs were pretty well scattered. The scoring was very slow, owing to the softness of the ground. Harvard won the toss and went in first to bat. As Lowell only scored 27 runs, less than 60 per cent. of the Harvard score, they started their second innings immediately after the first was over. Owing to the weakness of Harvard's bowling they scored 100 runs for only three wickets down. The score:-
