10 BASEBALL WORK. Recent Practice—Easy Victory from Williams. —_— The baseball candidates have been practicing regularly at the field since the vacation. They have been coached by W. H. Beall, 93 S., and Frederick Rustin, 95S. A new batting cage has been arranged in the gymnasium lot, and the men are given practice in bat- ting there at odd times during the day. The men left for Amherst yesterday morning, April 28th, where they played in the afternoon. According to the agreement in base- ball between Yale and Princeton, the captains of the two teams have for- warded to the opposing college a list of the men likely to play in the champion- ship games. The names of the men from whom the Princeton nine will be chosen is as follows: Bradley, Smith, Kelley, Altman, Sankey, Suter, Geer, Easton, Butler, Campbell, Barrett, Jayne, Hillebrand, Kefer, Angle, Burke, Watkins, Crookston, Robinson, Ford, McGibbon, Thompson, Bedford, Evans, Guerin, Wilson, Welles, Gorham and Dohm. YALE, 10; WILLIAMS, 1. The University nine played against Williams at the Field, Saturday, April 24, and won by the score of 10 to 1, af- ter six innings of play. The nine play- ed a very clean fielding game and after the first three innings managed to hit Plunkett pretty freely. Fearey. did good work in the box for six innings and then was succeeded by Greenway. Both men held down the opponents to only very scattered hits. Fearey was in the box for Yale at the opening of the game. He pitched a fine game for five innings, allowing but four scattered hits and one base on balls. He also batted hard, making a triple and single. Greenway suc- ceeded him in the sixth inning and held down the opponents to two hits. Camp, Hamlin, Keator and Fincke fielded particularly well, and Hamlin, Fearey and Hazen led at the bat, Haz- en’s home run being the feature of the game. For Williams, Plunkett, Good- rich and Ross did the best work. Their fielding was rather erratic at times.

In transferring their luggage down to the boat house, some of the men had trouble with a city ex- pressman, named Thomas Hyland, which resulted in their arrest. H. B. Wilcox, 798, acting for the Crew, had engaged at the Green, Expressman Hyland, to: carry some dress suit cases from. Lake Whitney to the boat house at the harbor, for two dollars. Mr. Wilcox drove out to the lake with Hy- land and, on their arrival, the bags were put in the wagon. Mr. Wilcox, in order to save time, then paid Hyland the two dollars in advance. There had been no trouble up to that time, but . on his receiving the money, Hyland - said that there were too many bage.~ Why should an Educated Man be Handicapped ? — One certainly is if he goes into business of any kind without knowing what is likely to be required of him. Those who know what is Best in Academic Education can appreciate most keenly the best PRACTICAL EDUCATION. | Education in the minor details of any. business may be obtained, it is true, by experience. But don’t be educated in this way unless youmust. IT’S EXPENSIVE. Employers charge dearly (in reduced wages) for what they teach. The long wait for a fair salary means more than the small outlay and short time required for thorough training in | Eastman Business College, POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., THE BEST TRAINING SCHOOL OF THE LAND. Write for its catalogue. It will prove interesting reading. If you cannot well attend the College you can certainly afford a course of instruction BY CORRESPONDENCE. [IS By the way, Lieutenant-Governor Timothy L. Woodruff, of New York, Yale ’79, finished his education with a course at Eastman, . and demanded more money. There was a great deal of talk, and finally he said that he would take the load down for one dollar more. Mr. Wilcox promised him this on his arrival at the harbor. Hyland refuseg to go, would neither give back the two dollars and throw up the job, nor go ahead. Finally Mr. Wilcox said that he would drive down himself and he untied the horse and drove off. He left Hyland standing and no effort was made by him to stop the wagon. Mr. Wilcox drove down Whitney Ave- nue and turned into Orange Street. Here he met Sergeant Doherty, of the New Haven police, and told him the facts of the case, where he was going, where he came from, how he happened to have the wagon, and his name and address. He then drove down to the Boat House and tied the horse, and in about half an hour, Sergeant Doherty - and six officers came down and put Mr. Wilcox and six other members of the Crew under arrest. The other Juniors were: A, C. Ledyard, J. C. McLaugh- lan, B. Cadawalder, G. T. Marsh, L. Hitchcock, and D. D. Burrell. These men were taken to the Grand Avenue station, and later released under $75 bonds, furnished by Mr. Moseley, of the New Haven House. The charge was breach of peace. Special emphasis is laid by the stu- dents on the fact that Hyland was not engaged to take down any speci- fied number of bags; that no trouble was made by him till he had received his money; that, when promised more, he refused to either throw up the job or go ahead, and that he was in no way roughly handled. Hyland’s story is, that he was beaten and thrown out of his wagon, and left generally used Up. The case came up in the City Court on Monday morning, but was nolled when Lawyer Asher, counsel for the Juniors, called attention to the fact that the alleged assault occurred near Lake Whitney, in the town of Hamden, over which the City Court had no ju- risdiction. Through their attorney, the Juniors have lodged a complaint of extortion against Hyland. 'They find he has been in some trouble of the kind before, and mean to try to have his license taken away. —_—___++—____ There are eighty-one Yale graduates taking’ advanced courses in Columbia.

And without being too puffed up about it, we are beginning to believe that the people like our work. We:have done a good deal for this paper, —THE YALE ALUMNI WEEKLY. We did all their cuts for the Athletic Issue of April 15. Did you notice, what the Register said about that issue? Just as a guarantee of good faith we will quote it all: ‘* Perhaps it is putting the case very strongly to assert that the current number of the Yale Alumni Weekly is the handsomest and most valuable Yale paper ever published, but we do not remember ever seeing one that was more admirable in all its editorial depart- ments, at least a routine number, The cuts are remarkably artistic and accurate, the news columns are crowded with matter of fresh and live importance and interest, especially to Yale men, and the paper can boast of at least two scoops on all other Yale and ali outside papers. The Weekly is an alumni organ to be proud of.” The cuts, you notice, were ‘‘ very artistic and accurate.” The drawings had to be so in the first place. But they might have been spoiled in the reproduction. If you want anything in half-tone work or zinc etching, it will pay you to try us.

Most of the Students of Yale are preparing to earn their own livelihood—some in professions— others in the BUSINESS WORLD. Many of these on leaving the University will want to know what will best promote their prospects in a business way. A young man receives the best general education at Yale, but even after graduating he may need to specialize in the vocation he intends to follow. In preparing for a business career it is of course advantageous for him to fit himself adequately for his chosen pursuit. Many College men have found profit in taking one or more of our special courses. others would be glad to know of It is therefore not unreasonable to suppose that
