CAMBRIDGE. Marin 21.-The weather has
given all the Harvard athletic teams another
setback. The crews, however, will probably
get on the river within q few days. while the
baseball men are % lay out q diamond on the
new Soldisfs' Field, and should be at infeld
practice within afweek. The track team will
be the last afoet, as the cinder path always
takes q long time TO dry out.
The varsity launch has not been put in
shape yet, and II will probably be Wednesday
before the varsity crew is on the water. There
has been some shifting In the order since
Coach Watson went away. Moulton has had
= try at No. 2, In place of Jenninge, and Hayes
has been pretty regularly at bow. Good
rich 10 now stroking, and ia q decided improve
ment over Hollister. The 90 eight ia again
showing up strongly, and after the races In
May It seems probable that several Of the
men may Join the varsity squad. The fresh.
mon are showing up very well. and compare
lively are far and away superior to the var.
atty.
There has been no further cut In the num-
, Der of candidates for the nine, but the COM
y petition for places has practically WED
down to the following men: Pitchers, Coz
zens and Paine: catcherr, Scannell. Brown,
and Norton; first base. G.. L. Paine and O'Mal.
ley; second base, Wrenn and> Dean; third
base, Stevenson and Clarkson; short stop, Nc.
Vey and Dean; outHeld. Rand. Burgess. Ed
mands, Dayton, and selfridRe. The fresh.
men are still being coached by w. l.. Carl
son. '97. They will not meet either Prince
ton or Yale this spring, but are arranging
games with Pennsylvania for May 20 at
Cambridge. and May 80 at Philadelphia.
The track men will comrete in only one moro
indoor event Of Importance, the mile relay race
at Madison Square Garden next Saturday.
Newell and Grant will surely be two Of Har-
wards representatives and It Is probable that
Williams and Blakemore will mako up the
quartet.
The Athletic Committee has given the Cy-
cling Association permission TO train the racing
team separately, and to use the new Cambridge
port track pr the purpose. A. =. hich OF Bos'
