Description	Bruce Allardice on 2/26/2021, reported that around the fall/winter of 1867, some Haverford College students, looking for exercise during periods of snow, invented a game they called "Ice Cream." It was a bat ball game, resembling wicket/cricket, and according to the book was unique to Haverford.
