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-

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.
