Yesterday afternoon the University baseball team left for Hanover, where it will meet the successful Dartmouth nine in the thirteenth game of its season. The Crimson line-up will be strengthened by the return of Jenkins and Larrabee to their old positions. Young will start on the mound for the University with a record of four victories and only one defeat, which he suffered on May 2 at the hands of Holy Cross. Coach Slattery has given his team a week of light practice with the Dartmouth contest as an objective. The postponement of the Bowdoin game gave the University another advantage, in that Young could be saved for today's contest.
After dropping a game to Holy Cross, Dartmouth has won seven straight victories since the Southern trip, defeating Columbia, Maine, Springfield College, the Massachusetts Agricultural College, Yale, Norwich, and Pennsylvania. In the last contest, which was played on Thursday, Dunlevy held his opponents to nine scattered hits. Huntzinger, on the mound for Pennsylvania, did even better, holding the Green to four, but the latter's ability to come through in the pinches, coupled with four infield errors by Pennsylvania, gave Dartmouth a 4 to 2 victory.
The Hanover nine is unusually strong this year for all its members, with the exception of Harris and Bjorkman, have had at least one year's experience.
