' Varsity Nine On Holmes Field.

The candidates for the 'Varsity nine were out practicing on Holmes field yesterday afternoon. The grounds were in very poor condition and made ground work almost impossible. Three nets were up, and Captain Willard kept the men busy with batting and fielding. Shroll '89, Downer '89, Grant '92, Viles '92 and Churchhill '92, pitched alternately, and although they pitched straight balls only, the batting was rather weak. The majority of the candidates have already played either on the 'Varsity or on the various class nines. Willard (captain), L. S. Henshaw '89, Linn '90, and Mumford '90, have played on the 'Varsity; Downer '79 Corning '91, Dean, '91. Coman '90, McKean '90, Crosby '91, Cummings '91, Babbitt '91 and Wood '91 have played on their class nines. The other men out yesterday were Evans '90, Brown '92, Curtis '92, Talbot '89, Blanchard '91, Brainard '89, Barney '90, Burton '92.
