The candidates for the freshman nine have been very negligent in their work in the gymnasium. We understand that the number which makes daily appearance is less than that requisite for a full base-ball team.

The class of '90 made an unenviable reputation in base-ball, and if '91 is trying to follow that illustrious example she can do no better than continue on her present foolish course. The members of the freshman class can deal with the matter after the defeats have come, but now the whole responsibility lies on those who are fit candidates for the team.
