Yale Baseball Situation Serious

The Yale baseball situation is facing a grave crisis with the start of its preliminary season work. Of last year's squad still in college, eight of the best men have been barred from playing, some on account of studies, others because of the summer ball incident, and still others because of the three-year eligibility rule. Those debarred include such promising men as Captain Milburn, Le Gore, Pumpelly, Easton, and Rhett. Way, the best pitcher at Yale, is debarred because he has already played three years on a college varsity team.

Some good material is expected from last year's freshman team, however. Garfield, the 1918 first-string pitcher, and Munson, the catcher, look like varsity calibre, but practically a new team has got to be formel. Milburn, who is still captain, although ineligible, will probably be succeeded by Vaughn, as the latter is the only senior on the squad.
