THE PRINCETON LACROSSE TEAM.

The vacancies in the Princeton lacrosse team will probably be filled by '86 men. The team will play two exhibition games before the first championship match, which is with Columbia. The game is growing in popularity at Princeton, although its merits are not appreciated by the mass of the college. The freshman class are taking to practice with some ardor. The team is crippled by the loss of Edwards, '85, who plays first base and exchange pitcher on the nine. Hewitt, '83, who has always played an excellent cover-point on the twelve, is at present laid up, and probably will not be able to play this season.

The Princeton team which defeated the New York lacrosse team by a score of 2 to 1, is as follows: Egbert, '84, as goal-keeper; Hodge, '83, point; Hewitt, '83, cover point; Gilmore, '83, Hall, '83, Ranney, '86, defence field; Blackmore, '86, centre; Traverse, '84, Rudd, '83, R. Hodge, '86, attack field; Poe, '84, first home; Riggs, '83, second home.
