In the afternoon a game will be played with the George- town University team. At seven o’clock the team will leave Washington by boat for Old Point Comfort, Va., and will arrive there the next morn- ing. While at Old Point Comfort the men will be quartered at the Hygeia Hotel. The game with Hampton will be played on Friday afternoon. Fri- night will be spent at Old Point Com- - fort and the 8.30 A.M. train on Satur- day will be taken for Richmond, arriv- ing there about two hours later.

R. R. for New York, form whence the members will return to New Haven according to their own convenience. Carter Coaches the Candidates, W. F. Carter, ’95, came up from New York last Thursday and remained with the University Baseball Team through Saturday. His coming at such an op- portune time, just before the Easter Trip, proved a great help to Capt. Greenway. Mr. Carter gave special at- tention to the batting of the men, a feature which is being attended to with unusual care this year. He himself pitched to part of the men each after- HORACE JEWELL FENTON. noon while a local pitcher pitched to the’ others. Each candidate was very care- fully watched and his form in batting was coached and criticised, more at- tention being given to hitting the ball properly than to hitting it hard. : But little team work has yet been at- tempted, only the simplest plays being tried in the daily practice. | On Thursday, J. J. Hazen, ’98, who has been playing in the outfield, was substituted for L. W. Robson at third base, and has since filled the position regularly. Robson has shown him- self a sharp fielder, but is uncertain at the bat. : The team has played as follows the past week: First base,. J. Wads- worth, Jr., ’°98; second base, C. A. H. deSaulles, ’99S.; short-stop, S. B. Camp; “1900;' third’ base; J.-J.” Hazen, 98; left field, Capt. Greenway, ’98S.; center field, J. W. Wear, ’99, and right field, H. B. Wallace, ’99.. This seems at the present writing to be the way the team will play on the Southern Trip. Fifteen men will be taken on the trip, the other members of the squad will be. dropped, with the exception of two or three, who will rejoin the team on its return. P. C. Keifer, roo01, substitute catcher, who was at the Infirmary all — week, began work again on Mon- ay. The Freshmen went to the Field for the first time a week ago yesterday. A temporary diamond has been laid out near last year’s Freshman field. B. C. Chamberlin, P. G., is in charge of the squad, which still numbers about thirty. men, eighteen of whom will remain here during the vacation. : me Be Athletic Calendar. April 23——Annual.
