There are about twenty candidates for the Yale nine, including Hubbard, '83 (capt.); Camp, M. S.; Jones, '84; Hopkins, '84; Booth, '84; Slocum, '83; Souther, '84; Childs, '83; Lawrence, '84; Noyes, '83; Lyon, '84; Newell, '83; D. Carpenter, L. S.; J. Carpenter, '83; Terry, '84; McKee, '84; Stone, '85; Richards, '85; Griggs, '83. Waldon, '81, has come back and will occupy his old position as second base. Wilcox, the luckiest man in the college base-ball arena last year, has left college. The nine also loses the services of Smith, Badger, Hopkins and Platt.

The candidates began training January 20.
