 regular members of the team several substi-
 tutes will go and also the officers of the asso-
 citation. The first game will be played
 with the New York league team on
 Wednesday, April IT, but whether at Staten
 Island or in New York itself is not known,
 since the destruction of the Polo grounds
 leaves no suitable place in the city for the
 game. On the following day the second
 game will be played with the same team.
 From New York the nine goes to Philadel
 phia, where arrangements have been made
 for two games, one with the University of
 Pennsylvania nine on April 18th, and another
 on Saturday, April 20th, with the Philadelphia
 league team, at the club grounds. The
 next Monday the nine plays at Washington
 with the leag6e team of that city, and on
 April 23d the last game of the trip will be
 played with the same club, thus giving
 ample time for the men to be back for the
 opening of the term, April 24. In addition
 to the regular games of the trip, engage
 ments have been made with other good clubs
 for practice games. On March 30th
 the nine takes trip to Philadelphia,
 opening the base ball season in
 that city with the Athletics of the American
 association. There will probably be few games in New Haven before this if the
 ground is sufficiently dry. After the recess games have been arranged with the Bergen
 Points at New Haven on April 3o, and with
 the nine of Brown university also in New Haven on May 2. On Decoration day Yale plays here with the Crescents of Staten Island, and the championship season in New
 Haven opens on May with Princeton.
