Baseball

Baseball work in the cage is progressing, though in the battery work the pitchers are still throwing straight balls, trying at present more for form than for speed or accuracy. The University squad is improving slowly. The men are still careless in their throwing, and do not get their heels together in picking up grounders. Tuesday there was practice in short dashes, and yesterday in catching men between bases.

The second squad is doing better, but their work is still inaccurate.

The Freshman squad has been cut down once, and the remaining candidates are doing fairly well. The work still consists of fielding, catching men between bases, practising short dashes, and base-sliding.
