ABOUT fifteen men are working in the gymnasium for positions on the Nine, and in nothing is the insufficiency of the building more evident than in the lack of accommodations for base-ball players. Our men pass ball to some extent, take general exercise, and three times a week the pitcher practises pitching; but they can get no practice at all in batting during about five months. At Yale a certain part of the gymnasium is shut off from the rest of the building by a wire screen, and there the candidates for their Nine can take their places as they do on the field and get up their batting as well in doors as out.
