LAFA YETTE VETERANS TO INVADE STADIUM

Today at 4 o'clock on Soldiers field, the University baseball team will meet the Lafayette College nine in the 14th game of the season. The Crimson showed its ability to recover from a slump by easily defeating the Springfield Y. M. C. A. combination on Monday, and Coach Slattery decided to give his team a rest yesterday, taking them to watch the Braves play in Boston. Herrmann, who will be used as a relief pitcher for the Princeton contest, will probably start on the mound for the Crimson, but he is almost certain to be replaced later in the game by Spalding.
