UNCALLED FOR INCREASE
FOR BASEBALL TICKETS
Ridiculous Price of $1.5O Charged for Admission to
 Championship Games.

The Yale University Baseball associa- ton has deemed 1t necessary this sea- son to increase the price of admission into the championship baseball games in this city, namely, with Princeton and Harvard.
 This increase is entirely uncalled for. The admission to the covered stand previous to this year, was $1.25, and the price now asked is $1.5O. The questions price of baseballs been increased? Have the baseball funds dropped so low that an immediate assessment must be placed on the college students and cit- |lzens of New Haven? Have the expen- ses of bringing to this city an out of town college team been increased or are the expenses more for Princeton and Harvard team than they are for a smaller college nine? The answers to these questions are, No.
 The reply of the Yale officials as to the cause for the increase in prices of admission has been. that all the other colleges, especially the big ones, Prince ton and Harvard, have a schedule of prices for the admission to the big games. Up to this year Yale has not adopted this schedule Then why do they now adopt it? Yale, one of the biggest colleges, should surely keep a schedule of it's own and not be inhu- creed by the schedules adopted at Har- yard or Princeton.
 Previous to 1899 the price of admis- sion was half dollar to the game and an extra half dollar for a ticket emitting one to a seat in the covered stand, In 1899 the baseball association increased the price to $1.25 for the grand stnd and 75 cents in the bleachers. An addition was put on the stand, for which the price of 50 cents was charg- | ed. The next step was to increase the price of admission to the open stands to s1.50 This is how the price stands at the present moment, and no one knows when another such change will be made.
 The people of New Haven have al ways attended these games and prob- ably will this year, although the falling off on account of this extraordinary price of admission will be keenly not iced
 The Yale University Baseball associa. tion should not assume the responslbil- ity of increasing the price of admission and little consideration for the peo- pie who wish to attend them should i be given.

TRACK MEN LEAVE
YALE's POINT WINNERS
Full Track Team Will Leave To-day for Intercol-
 legiate Meet.

Yale's sure point-winners in the in- tercollegiate meet at the Harvard sta dium next Saturday left this city last evening for Boston to remain till the games are concluded. They will be quartered with the full Yale team at the Woodlawn Park hotel, Auburndale. The squad which departed last even ing included Coach John Mack, Captain Jim Marshall, William F. Knox, Wal ter Dray and w. T. Coholan. Coach Mack expects to take about 20 points, with Dray first in the pole vault, Mar shall first in the high jump, Knox talk ing the broad jump and Coholan second or third in the quarter-mile. Gilbert and Campbell, Yale's other pole vault CTS, are doing remarkably well, clear ing the bar yesterday in final practice at Il feet inches.
 Yale expects to win more points at the intercollegiates than Harvard, all though the crimson defeated her at the dual meet here two weeks ago.
 Yale's full track squad will not leave here till to-day, when twenty-five will depart from this city.

WORK 0F CREW MEN ON
 HARB0R NEARLY EKDED On Thursday, May 6, Yale Crew Take Headquarters
 at Gales Ferry.
LATER THAN USUAL.
Varsity Squads Training Satisfactory With Good
 Standard of Rowing.

It is planned by the crew men to end their work on the harbor Wednesday. June 5, and make their headquarters at Gales Ferry the next day for the remainder of the season. This is a lit- tie later start for the Thames than usual On the whole the harbor train ing has been satisfactory in spite of the cold weather and high winds. Four crews have been maintained in the Varsity squad and the standard ot rowing has been generally good, The crew is up to the average of Yale crews at this time of year and at times in the past two weeks has shown ex- ceptional speed. A week or two ago fourmile trial brought out a fne contest between the first and second boats which the first won in very sat- isftctory time.
 The Varsity is rowing as 1t has for several weeks but there is likely to be a slight change soon.

HAVE GONE TO PROVIDENCE.
Yale Baseball Nine to Meet Strong
 Brown Team To-day.

The Yale baseball nine left last even- ing for Providence where they will meet the strong Brown nine to-day. Harvard played the Providence team yesterday and was defeated, Yale play ed Brown about a week ago in this city and for thirteen innings fought a tie game.
 The most important question in res- pect to the Yale lineup lies in the pitchers position. Meyer is the first pick, although he did not show up in practice yesterday afternoon. Parsons will not go in as he was used all yes terday afternoon Van Week or Dun bar may be given a show, Van Week being given the preference.
 Williams will play at third with Gushing at first, Camp at the middle station and Kinney at short, The out- field will undoubtedly remain un- changed, although there is some talk about putting "Bo" Church in Cha pins position in righttield.

CRIMSON CREW PRACTICE.
Light Rowing on Lake Cnyuga Before
 Big Race.

Ithaca. N. Y, May 29,-The Harvard varsity crew rowed two miles out in to Cayuga lake to-day, but did not go over the course. which has been laid out for to-morrow's race with Cornell. The water was not smooth enough to allow the crews to make speed, and most of the practice was on the Cayu- gsl inlet. The men looked fresh tonight and seemed pleased with the outlook.
 Coach Wray would not talk on the prospects tonight, but said a pleasant day and smooth water would give the Harvard crew a better chance to show itJ speed.
 The Cornell crew took things easy to- day The men are in excellent physical condition. The chances of the crews are here considered even.

HITS GALORE.
Hartford Too Snappy for Orators and
 Win Easily.

Bridgeport, May 29.--It was heavy hitting game on both sides to-day, Cunningham being the only one of the quartette of pitchers in the game that did effective work. Cornen was both wild and ineffective, while Waller, who succeeded him, was touched up for punches of safe ones. O'Connor, who started for Hartford, was hit almost at will by the home team, but after Cum ningham displaced him there was noth- ing more doing in that line. Hartford played a snappy game throughout, talk ing advantage of every point and win ming an uphill victory with ease at the finish The score:
