Twenty-one members of the varsity baseball team, including hockey captain Myles Huntington '50, last night endorsed the building of a new varsity club with the money left to the University by Allston Burr '89.

A letter to the CRIMSON, written while the team was in Philadelphia for the game with Penn, stated ". . . a new varsity club is necessary both by reason of need and Mr. Burr's interest in the project. We feel that the need for other projects does not depreciate the need for the new building."

Four members of the traveling squad did not sign.

In a poll taken earlier this week 69 percent of the ballots indicating membership in a varsity team were against the proposed building.

Manager Hugh C. Foster '49 said last night that the team members supported the proposed club because they felt that it would benefit athletics as a whole more than a hockey rink. "Although we all believe that a hockey rink is a good thing," Foster said, "we feel that use of the money for such a speclalized purpose at the present time would be unjust."

"The present varsity club is inadequate because it is so far out of the way," Foster added. "If athletics are to take their proper place in college life, the headquarters for athletics should likewise be in the center of college activities."
