Candidates Out March 1.
Weather permitting, the coach intends
to have the candidates for the Gallaudet
nine out on the field March for prac-
tice The battery practice started last
week in the Kendall Green gymnasium,
and the rest Of the candidates were in
structed to report on the above date.
Among the veterans Of the 1911 nine
intending to report are Capt. Brick, Bat
tiste, and Moore, pitchers; Left Fielder
Blanchard, Right Fielder Armes, Short
stop Rockwell, First Baseman Miller,
utilities, Foltz and Jacobson.
Probably the greatest tasks confront
ing the coach is building up of an in
field and developing at least two CATCH
ers. Through graduation Gallaudet lost
ex-Capt. and Third Baseman Hover.
Second Baseman Stevenson. and First
Sucker Craven, all experienced infelders.'
leaving only Shortstop Rockwell and
Substitute First Sacker Miller TO build
nucleus around.
As to catchers, the Kendall Greeners
had a good one in Capt. Morris, of the
last years nine. but he also gradu-
ated, and Rockwell is the only
one left at GaIlaudet that can be counted
upon for good headwork behind the bat,
but he is too good shortstop TO be
placed at the receiving end Of the bat
terry in case the coach can develop Rem
DAN and Classen into catchers-of college
CalIber.
Manager Hughes will assign practice
dates to the city high school mines for
March and certain days in the remainder
of the intercollegiate schedule. Gallaudet
will not have games during the Easter
vacation this year owing to the previous
difficulties in keeping together teams
during such holiday weeks as Thnnksgiv-
ing. Christmas, Easter. &C. obstacles the
Gallaudet managers experienced.
