One hundred men, the largest number of candidates that ever came out for the University baseball team, handed in their names at the Trophy room last night. The number last year was sixty-seven and the year before forty five. The number of pitchers is especially large. Captain Dean said a few words about the work of the season and announced that this year a second, or "College" nine would be started which should have a separate organization with its own captain and manager. Men will be shifted according to the ability they show from one team to the other and the college nine, as well as the varsity, will play with outside teams.

Captain Dean was followed by exCaptains Wiggin, Thayer, and Frothingham and two other old 'varsity players, Messrs. Nichols and Quackenboss.

After the meeting Captain Dean and Manager Sanders left for New York, where a conference will be beld today to arrange games with Cornell and Pennsylvania.
