Last year Bates was overwhelmed in the game here by the score of 12 to 0. The team this year contains four of the same men as played last year--Keaney, Lamorey, Dorman, and Harriman. It has not shown much strength in its games this season, and was barely able to defeat Andover last Wednesday, 8 to 7. Bates has been beaten by New Hampshire State College, 6 to 5, and by the University of Maine, 5 to 0. The University team may be expected to win with little difficulty...

Injuries have weakened both teams this spring, so that neither will be able to show its full strength this afternoon. R. C. Foster '11, H. Guild '10, W. H. Lacey '12, and M. Steinhardt '11 will all be unable to compete. Foster's loss will be balanced partly by the inability of N. A. Sherman to run for Dartmouth. Sherman pulled a tendon in the Pennsylvania relay games a week...
