WEATHER MAKES B. U. BALL GAME DOUBTFUL

Despondency was the order of the day at the cage yesterday, with even Ground-keeper Dennis Enwright and Mike, his assistant, gloomy about the condition of the baseball field. The Boston University game on Saturday has become problematical due to the snow storm and only a decided change in the weather will make it possible. Mr. Enwright had succeeded in almost entirely preparing the Freshman and Second team fields and work had been begun on the University field, when the snow storm obliterated their work overnight.

As for the condition of the players, Coach Slattery said yesterday, "With six or seven new men, we are going to be hit much harder by this bad weather than if we could rely on a group of experienced players from last year's team." He explained that the schedule for the southern trip calls for five games on successive days and that the pitching staff may run up against difficulties unless the weather permits outdoor practice next week.

Meanwhile, the University and Freshman squads both practised in the cage yesterday. The University pitchers are all progressing very well, according to Coach Mitchell, and only need a few practice games, to be completely ready for the southern trip. R. W. Cordingley '25 is strengthening his broken wrist and will in all probability make the southern trip, although it is doubtful whether he will pitch in form until the team returns to Cambridge.
