The '90 Class Nine.

Captain McKean succeeded in getting out on the field about twenty candidates for the sophomore nine, yesterday afternoon. Butterworth, Fullerton and McLeod are trying for pitcher, and it is probable that McLeod will fill the position. Slade is the only candidate for catcher since Young is no longer in college. McKean will play first base, and McCoy, Faulkner, Wardner, Bates, Vilia, Rublee, Dexter, DeLong and Wheelwright are candidates for the other infield positions. Piper, Codman, Koshland, Hapgood, Barney and Sabine are trying for the out-field. After half an hour's fielding work the men practised batting. McLeod did not pitch on account of a lame arm, and as Fullerton was obliged to leave, Butterworth did most of the work, but was relieved occasionally by Slade and DeLong. Captain McKean intends to have the men out now every afternoon at 2.30.
