Providing an opportunity for Freshman athletes to begin a new sport, the Freshman baseball season was officially inaugurated yesterday afternoon, when 46 candidates turned out on the diamond of the Briggs Cage for preliminary practice under Rufus Bond, who will coach the first year men.

The Freshman batterymen have been working out for two weeks and the unusually high number of preparatory school stars indicates that the team will be strong on the mound and behind the plate. W. A. Lincoln '35, who starred on the slab for Exeter last year, and D. H. Gleason '35, showed great promise. More men are expected out as soon as the basketball seasons ends next Saturday. Last year 53 men responded to the first call.

The following Freshmen are now on the squad:

Pitchers--J. F. Carty, H. M. Chapman, Jr., E. A. Crane, D. H. Gleason, W. A. Lincoln, W. S. Vesey, Martin Victor, F. E. Wood, Jr.
