H. W. Le Gore, A. M. Milburn, R. G. Rhett, Jr., S. A. Pumpelly, and W. Easton, the five Yale baseball players who have been declared ineligible for the coming season, will play on the second or "college" nine this spring. They have refused many offers to join baseball teams of all varieties, professional, semiprofessional, and amateur, but have chosen instead to take part in the development of the Yale team. The second nine should accordingly be as strong, if not stronger, than the regulars.
All except Milburn will be at Yale another year and are expected to avail themselves of their eligibility in 1917. Milburn's college athletic days are over and he will retire from the nine and from the captaincy immediately.
