BASEBALL WITH LAFAYETTE

This afternoon at 4 o'clock the University baseball team will play Lafayette on Soldiers Field. Hartford will pitch for Harvard.

Lafayette has lost but one important game this season, to Cornell on Saturday by a score of 3 to 0, and has defeated the University of Virginia, 10 to 2, Lehigh, 4 to 2, and Columbia, 3 to 2. The game this afternoon promises to be close, with the chances favoring the University team.

Yesterday afternoon the University team held its first practice on Soldiers Field since last Thursday. No fielding was done on the diamond, but the whole afternoon was given up to batting, in which the team was weak at Philadelphia last Saturday, and fatally so at Andover on Monday.

The batting orders: HARVARD.  LAFAYETTE. Leonard, 3b.  c., Snook Stephenson, c.  s.s., Hawk Dexter, l.f.  c.f., Wack Burr, 1b.  l.f., Tolkenson Hellmann, c.f.  p., Newberry McCall, 2b.  3b., Updegrove Harvey, s.s.  1b., Peters Currier, r.f.  r.f., Kensey Hartford, p.  2b., Moore
