...varsity baseball candidates have now been working in the cage for about six weeks under the supervision of Captain Dean and Coach Bond. When the men first came out about one hundred candidates presented themselves but the number has slowly been reduced to about thirty-two, omitting the battery candidates. So far, the two most promising freshmen in the squad are Litchfield and Thompson. The former comes from Brooklyn, where he played on the Brooklyn Latin School, and the latter from St. Mark's School. The rest of the candidates are men who have played on their class teams...

The university nine will take its usual southern trip this year during the Easter vacation. The Yale Law School baseball nine will leave New Haven March 26 on their southern trip and will play ten games...
...great credit for their success in arranging such a complete schedule and should have the hearty support of the whole college, especially in the matter of the additional games with Harvard and Yale. The new baseball men have been ordered by Captain Bradley to report for practice in the cage, while the old men will remain working in the gymnasium till the latter part of March, when the cage will be less damp and the professional coach, Earle, will have charge...
