Coach Percy Catton '15 will send the lacrosse men outside today for the first practice out of the baseball cage this season. Forty-five men have reported for the University team and eighteen for the Freshman, all of whom have been practicing in the cage since March...
...pitchers afforded the infielders and outfielders batting, using only straight balls; but after three quarters of an hour the moundsmen finished the afternoon's session in the cage. Flies were knocked to the outfielders and Coach Slattery gave the infielders grounders. Two infields were at work, one composed of J. C. Bancroft '23 at first, E. C. Lincoln '22, Captain R. W.
