YALE ALUMNI WHEHEKLY
THE NINE WINS TWICE.
Best Game of the Season Played
Against Brown.
Yale’s play against Brown on Satur-
day, in which she gave the Providence
nine their first collegiate defeat of the
season, stands out asa most encourag-
ing incident in the athletic situation.
It was good base ball on both sides and
the best of it was that Yale won on her
batting. The story of the game is told
below.
There is some chance, as the WEEKLY
goes to press, that Goodwin, 1900, will
soon be in good physical condition again
and be able to rejoin the University
squad and become one of Yale’s catch-
ers. This would mean a strengthening
of the nine, but the matter is unsettled
yet.
Mr. George B. Case, ’94, coached the
nine Tuesday im preparation for the
Lafayette game. The practice was
sharp and hard.
YALE, 9; AMHERST, 2.
The University nine defeated Am-
herst at Amherst, Wednesday, April
28, by the score of 9 to 2. The game
was very one-sided from the begin-
ning, Yale scoring a winning lead of
three runs in the first inning. Yale’s
batting was fairly strong, but her
fielding was very uncertain. The game
was lost by Amherst by some very bad
errors made at critical points. Hamlin
and Fincke led in the fielding for
Yale, and Hamlin, Keator and Letton
at the hat.

YALE, 6; BROWN, 2.
The University Nine played the first
important home game of the season,
against Brown University, -Saturday,
May 1, and won by the score of 6—2.
A very close game had been expected
and Yale’s strongest team was in the
field. No score was made in the first
four innings and good base ball was
played by both sides. The interest was
keen during the entire game, and
though Brown was never in the lead,
yet no confidence of victory was al-
lowed the home team until the last
man had been retired. The teams were
very evenly matched in the field, but
at the bat Yale was much more suc-
cessful.
The work of the Yale team showed
the effects of hard practice and careful
coaching in the field. A very pretty
play was made in the second inning.
Gammons and Cook, of Brown, were on
third and first bases respectively. The
latter tried to steal second but Bartlett
threw down to Hamlin, who attempted
to catch him between first and second.
While he saw them occupied in this
play, Gammons thought he saw a
chance to steal home, but Camp was
watching him and threw to Bartlett
just in time to put him out. This play
eeernevee
eee
was executed with considerable confi-
dence and very smoothly. The Yale
men understood what they were about
all the time. i
The work of both pitchers was excel-
lent. Greenway allowed only three hits
and Fearey only four, and both showed
excellent head work. The fielding of
both men was also faultless. Fincke,
Camp and Hamlin filled their positions
well, all making brilliant plays and
working carefully and confidently. The
work of the outfield was flawless, ex-
cept for a muff by Hazen of a rather
difficult liner. His error was not costly,
Bartlett proved an excellent back stop
except on two occasions. He had one
passed ball, which gave Brown a base,
and muffed an easy throw home, al-
lowing Lauder to score Brown’s second
run. He seemed well able to hold both
Greenway and Fearey, but has a dis-
position to become nervous at critical
moments.
In batting, the Yale nine hit,hard and
often safe, in spite of the fact that
eleven men were struck out by Brady.
Keator, Greenway and Fearey were the
strongest in this line. The Yale Cap-
tain’s record in this respect was flaw-
less. He seemed able to hit just asi he
wished to. Greenway drove to right
center for a home run in the ninth in-
ning, with one man on base, and
clinched the victory. The weakest point
in Yale’s work was in base running.
Once the fault seemed to be in the
coaching and at other times the run-
ners took too many chances, when only
one man wag out. In a closer game,
this carelessness would have been more
costly.
Brown played a strong and steady
fielding game but was not able to ob-
tain safe hits at critical points in the
game. They had several chances to
score by the addition of batting, but
the Yale pitchers and strong fielding
prevented. In the field Phillips, Fultz
and Brady did the best work, while
Lauder, Rodman and Dunne led at the
bat. The score:
Yale.

THE FRESHMAN GAMES.
The Freshman Base Ball Team de-
feated the team of the Hillhouse High
School in a very loosely played game
at the Edgewood Field, Wednesday,
April 28, by the score of 15 to 3. Clark-
gon and Eddy played with the Fresh-
men for the first time. The pitching
was somewhat better than in previous
games, although there is still room for
improvement. The batting order for
Yale, 1900, was as follows: Newcombe,
c.; Bronson, s.s.; Ferguson, r.f.; Lyon
and Clarkson, c.f.; Eddy, 1.f.; Crawford,
83b.; Russel, 1b.; Norton, 2b.; Dunleary
and Whittlesey, p. The score by innings
was as follows:
Yale, 1900...:3 4°0 0 1°42) 2a
Hillhouse....0 00210900 083
YALE, 1900 VS. DEAN ACADEMY.
The Freshman base ball nine was
defeated by Dean Academy, Saturday,
May 1, by a score of 11 to 5. The game
was played on the Dean Academy
grounds at Franklin, Mass, which were
in very poor condition. The Freshman
team: was crippled by the loss of Nor-
ton, Dunn and Eddy, who were pre-
vented from going by examinations in
the Scientific School. The game was
loosely played, the batting was weak,
the base-running very poor, and the
throwing wild. The pitching was un-
steady. The Dean Academy nine was
strong at the bat and fielded fairly
well.

SPRING ATHLETIC GAMES
Good Records in the Track Events.
New Material Developing.
The annual spring games of the Yale
Athletic Association were held at the
Yale Field, Wednesday, April 28, and
proved more successful than had been
generally expected. The time of 10 1-5
seconds in the 100-yard dash, made in
both the final heat and the first of the
trial heats, by Graff and Byers re-
Spectively, was very good, considering
the light wind that blew down the track
against the runners. In the quarter
mile run also Fisher made the circuit of
the track in 57 seconds in spite of the
wind. The finish in the 220 yard dash
was the closest of the afternoon, the
three first men finishing not two feet
apart. Butler, 1900, walked a fine race,
covering the mile in 7 minutes and 2-5
seconds. The half mile run was anoth-
er race deserving of mention. Hinckley
won in 2 minutes, 3 -5 seconds, but
was not pushed at all. In the pole vault
two men were tied for first place with
the bar at 11 feet, and Cheney covered
the very creditable distance of 22 feet
2 inches, in the broad jump. The other
field events showed no very good ma-
terial.

Spring Football Practice.
The Spring football practice began
April 22, under the supervision of W.
T. Bull, ’88S. The 20 candidates for
positions back of the line who reported
were divided into two squads, one prac-
ticing at 10 a. m. and the other at 4 p.
m. After this week the work will be
‘optional and will be held three times
a week. The kicking has. steadily im-
proved, and Mr. Bull’s assistance at
this time will prove of especial benefit
next year, as he has started the candi-
dates along lines of practice which
they can carry on by themselves to
great advantage. A kicking contest
will be held, May 24. P. T. Stillman,
°95S., is expected soon to coach the can-
didates for center.
