Yale 20; N. Y. University 8.
The Yale Nine opened the playing
season at the Field Saturday, March 31,
by a game with New York University,
and although the weather was cold and
raw, there was exceptionally good play
for the first of the season. Sixteen
men were given an opportunity to play
in the nine innings, including four
pitchers and two catchers. Garvan, a
brother of Frank P. Garvan, ’97, was
in the box for the first four innings and
did good work, giving but one base on
balls, striking out four men, and field-
ing his position well. Russell, who
succeeded him in the fifth, was very
erratic and was mainly responsible for
the four runs scored by the New York
players in that inning. McKelvey and
E. Wescott, who were tried in the last
portion of the game, did fairly well. Sul-
livan caught for the first four innings,
Cunha finishing the game. The infield
work was remarkably fast and clean.
Sharpe, the half-back of last year’s foot-
ball eleven, was at first base, and though
green, showed qualities which should
make him a fixture at that position.
He is over six feet tall and throws left-
handed with speed and accuracy. The
high wind made the work of the out-
field very ragged. In batting Yale
showed to good advantage, and gave
the spectators the right to expect some-
thing unusual from this year’s team in
the -batting line. The score:

pleted their report. It. shows a_ total
of $1,819.24 received, the greater part
being from subscriptions. The expendi-
tures amount to $1,817.57, of which the
more important items are, as usual,
training table, expenses at New London
and uniforms. The delay in publishing
the report has been caused by a few
outstanding bills.
Contests are being held regularly in
the Gymnasium to arouse interest in the

inary trial are: E. L. Fox, 1902, 5 points,
5 feet, 3% inches; K. L. Burns, 1900,

the latter part of July. The plan is for

Word has been received from the
management of. the Duquesne Gardens,
the Pittsburg skating rink, that the pro-
posed hockey game between Yale and
Queen’s University, of Kingston, Can-
ada, cannot be arranged for this year.
The Board of Health of Pittsburg has
announced that the rink must be closed
April 14, and as the Queen’s College
team cannot possibly be in Pittsburg
until the sixteenth, negotiations have
been broken off, and it has been defi-
nitely decided that the game will not
be played.
Two important changes in the baseball
rules for the coming season were made
by the National Baseball League at its
meeting in New York, March 9. Here-
after, a balk, or feint to throw, by the
pitcher, meant to deceive a base runner,
will permit base-runners to move along
one base; but the batsman cannot go to
first. It was decided also to change the
shape of the home plate so that the
pitcher will have the side of a square
for a mark instead of the point. It is
believed that, because of this change,
bases on balls will be fewer.
The final gymnastic contest for the
“Vv.” took place in the Gymnasium,
March 16. The judges decided in favor
of G. H. Whipple, who scored 3.08
points more than any other competitor.
There were five entries, as follows: E.
1. Hlaason, «teed? KR. Je 1 mito, . 2000;
G. H. Whipple, 1900; W. L. Otis, 1900,
In addition
to the regular contest there was a wrest-
ling match and a 1903 competition for
numerals, which was won by E, R. Crow.
The judges were Mr. L. Leyerzaph, Mr.
C. W. Mayser and Mr. R. Horn.
At a recent meeting of the Cornell
Athletic Council changes were made, in
the undergraduate representation in that
body, which gives the undergraduates
fuller powers in the government of their
athletics. The Council was increased
from fifteen to nineteen members, of
which the undergraduates have one ma-
jority. The local graduate membership
in the Council was reduced by one—
from seven to six. At the same meeting
the question of a graduate manager of
athletics was discussed, but the result
has not been announced. ‘There seems,
however, to be a strong sentiment for
the appointment of such a manager.
At the intercollegiate fencing tourna-
ment, held at the Racquet and Tennis
Club, New York, March 31, the Har-
vard team won first place, the Annapolis
team second place, the Columbia team
third place, the Cornell team fourth
' place and the Yale team fifth place.
The superiority of Harvard and An-
napolis was apparent after the first
bouts. This is the first time that Yale
has entered a team in the intercollegiate
tournament and the men have had but
little practice. The Yale team was
composed of S. N. Arnold, 1903, Cap-
tain? = 4 D: Stowe, “1600 Ss: “and 7H:
W. King, 1901. A dual match between
the Yale and Cornell teams will be held
at Ithaca, May 18, and may become a
permanent event.
The dates
of tournaments of the
United States National Lawn Tennis
Association have been settled upon for
the coming year. They are as follows:
