The Yale baseball outlook this year seems fairly bright. A canvass of the university, made by Captain Guernsey, showed that nine of last year's regular players and substitutes, besides some excellent material from the last freshman team, will play again this season. Among the men who will be available are: Captain Guernsey, third base; J. Garvan, pitcher; Winslow, right field; A. Barnwell, centre field; G. Ward, left field; Waddell, second base; A. Wear, substitute fielder; Littlefield, substitute first base; J. de Saulles, substitute second base; from last year's freshman nine: J. Patton, pitcher; Walton, catcher; Captain Chittenden, third base; Matcalf, second base; Green, fielder.
The candidates for the team will be called out tomorrow and will commence work under the coaching of L. M. Johnson '02, and several former university players. The head coach has not yet been appointed. A special effort will be made to improve the team work this year. From present indications, pitchers are scarce and unless new material reports, most of the work will have to be done by Garvan. As none of the candidates for catcher is quite satisfactory, Winslow or Waddell may be tried in that position, and other changes will doubtless be made.
The freshman team candidates have been called out and are working in the cage under the direction of Captain Guarnsey and Johnson.
