There seems to be no reason why Ninety-five should not turn out a good base ball nine. They have had all the opportunities of indoor practice which have been offered to freshman teams; it is only since the erection of the Carey Building, the that freshman teams have had such general use of the gymnasium cage. Now that they have got out-of doors, where the real finishing work begins, they are under the coaching of an experienced player. Everything but the lateness of the spring, is working with them to produce a good nine. It may be still a little early to judge of the work of the men themselves, but when it is considered that the first game is to be played tomorrow, such playing as the nines have been showing thus far, stands out warningly. There has got to be some rapid improvement, if the nine wants to make a good showing against the school teams. We believe that there is good material among the candidates, and that hard practice will develop a good nine. But nothing can be done without the hardest of work, and if Ninety-five wants to do herself justice, and keep up the reputation of the freshman nines, it must settle right down to the most serious attention to work that it knows how to give.
