ABOUT THE CAGE.EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: Although I see your columns flooded with communications of complaint and advice, yet I think that the reader will agree, upon careful thought, that the scheme I venture to propose, is one worthy of mention. I refer to the base-ball cage in the gymnasium. As matters now stand, the men training for the batteries cannot practice while the candidates for the other positions are working. Thus as the cage is now in great demand by the 'Varsity and Freshman teams, the hours of the fielders must be shortened, in order that the others may exercise. Now it seems to me that this (and all) inconvenience could be easily done away with and our facilities greatly increased, were we to add to the cage that portion of the bowling alley west of the line of brick pillars that support the ceiling. This, beside aiding the work of the batteries, would also prove of value to the whole nine.

At present it seems a pity to divide the basement evenly between base-ball and bowling, when the college, individually and as a whole, takes so much more pleasure in the former more important sport.
