BASEBALL CANDIDATES.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In the University baseball practice, which began yesterday, an innovation was inaugurated. It is the plan this year to allow all men, whether or not on probation, to work with the squad until the April hour examinations. In this way men who are then relieved from probation will not be handicapped by a late start. In addition, this system should prove a strong inducement to baseball players on probation to secure good marks in April.

Candidates for the team who successfully weathered the storm and stress of mid-years are very apt to overlook the April pitfall and consider themselves immune from danger. It is always regrettable to lose good material because of scholastic difficulties. This year, however, it would be doubly so. For with the right sort of co-operation and assistance from the squad and the support of the College at large, Dr. Sexton should have a very good chance to develop a winning team. Any men who through indolence or carelessness handicap Dr. Sexton in his initial efforts as coach deserve the strongest condemnation.
