ELI AND TIGER TEAMS ACTIVE

BASEBALL AND CREW PRACTICE EMPHASIZED; TRACK MEN UNDEVELOPED.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Both Yale and Princeton have been active in spring athletics during their recent recesses. Although the track team at New Haven was not called out until college reopened, crew and baseball figured largely in the vacation of both colleges.

The Yale baseball squad, which has just been cut to thirty men practised three days last week out doors. This week, however, the team has been kept in the cage by bad weather. The first game is scheduled for next Saturday with Wesleyan at New Haven.

At Princeton the thirty-five baseball candidates had their first workout on the field last Wednesday. AT that time Coach Clark said that the prospects for a successful season were most favorable. Their first game will be played with Swarthmore on April 12.

Crew practice at New Haven was held several days during vacation but owing to the fact that three men of the first boat were absent because of illness the practice was a disappointment. The illness of the men in the first boat has necessitated a general shift in the make up of the eight and is a serious setback, especially since the Pennsylvania race is only three weeks off. In reference to Yale's unfortunate condition Coach Professor Abbott said that the coaches had never seen the harbor so rough and seldom had there been so many cases of sickness at one time.

At Princeton on the other hand the University and freshman crews have been working daily on Lake Carnegie under the director of Dr. Spaeth, and there have been no changes recently in the seating of the boats.

Less has been done in track in the two colleges than in baseball or crew. At Yale there has as yet been no practice. Princeton has been carrying on regular track work but Coach Fitzpatrick is not very optimistic about the outlook for the coming season.
