The management of the freshman nine is doubtless eager to arrange as many games as possible with other clubs in order to have that practice which Harvard nines always need so much, and find it so difficult to get. We would suggest that a game be arranged with the Amherst freshman nine, if possible. This nine is to play the Yale freshmen on Saturday, and has already, we believe, played the Brown freshmen. A freshman nine from Amherst has not appeared at Harvard for several years, although several very strong teams have been put in the field by the Amherst freshmen. The Amherst freshman nine last year was a remarkably good one, and we understand that Amherst has one this year that would be a good match for our freshman nine. The novelty of a game with the Amherst freshmen would surely attract and interested crowd, and the game would be a financial success for the management, as well as a means of getting excellent practice for the nine, so we hope our suggestion will be favorably received.
