Fielding candidates for the University baseball team will report dressed to play to Coach Hugh Duffy in the cage tomorrow afternoon at 2.15 o'clock. Battery candidates have been out for some time. Since Mondays have been reserved for military training there will be no baseball practice this afternoon. The fielders are getting started a week earlier than they did last year. Practice for Freshmen starts on Friday...
...contest. In that same time the University has defeated McGill and lost to Yale. Although the men had little trouble with the Canadians, their showing in New Haven last Saturday was of the early season variety and they have continued their ragged work during the past week's practice. Coach Winsor has been driving his players hard in the hopes of defeating Princeton, but though past records are more favorable to the University, present conditions point to an advantage for the Tigers...

Coach Winsor gave the players 20 minutes of shooting and passing in which the team had made a weak showing at New Haven.
