BASEBALL TODAY.

The 'Varsity nine plays the Amherst team at Amherst this afternoon. As the score was a tie in the last game, when it was stopped on account of rain, a close game is expected. Fitz will pitch for Harvard and Sears will play centre, as Beale is laid off with a bad cold.

Harvard's batting order will be: Rand, l. f.; Haughton, 1b.; Sears, c. f.; Scannell, c.; Stevenson, 3b.; Burgess, r. f.; Dean, 2 b.; Chandler, s. s.; Fitz, p.
