Today the freshman lacrosse twelve will try their best to defeat the Yale freshmen at New Haven. The number of men who have tried for the team is considerable and the team selected ought to make a creditable showing. Of course, a game requiring so much skill and headwork as does lacrosse cannot be perfectly learned in one season, but a beginning must be made some time, and the beginning made by '87 is certainly creditable. It is a pity that not all the best men are able to go today, but the result must be that those who have been chosen to fill their places must work hard to represent their class in a becoming manner. After the two practice games here in Cambridge, the twelve ought to know each other's style of play pretty well and do something of team work,-a great element of strength to any organization. We wish them success in this their first college venture.
