The nine practised on Holmes field yesterday morning, spending most of the time in batting. The men are all in excellent condition for today's game and ought to give a good account of themselves. Captain Linn could not give definitely the batting order of the nine because he is thinking of making a change. The order will probably be as follows however: Dean ss., Linn rf., Howland cf., Trafford 1b., Alward 3b., Upton c., Mason lf., Frothingham 2b., Downer, p.

The Yale team came to Boston last night. The nine will probably be made up as it was in the Princeton game last Saturday. Owsley, however, is on a trip with the freshman nine, and it is barely possible that he will not play third base with the 'varsity today. If he does play the team will be constituted as follows: Stagg p., Calhoun 2b., McBride 1b., Dalzell cf., Poole c., McClung ss., Cushing rf., McClintock lf., Owsley 3b.
