New Haven, Conn, April 1.-The Easter recess of seven days began yesterday at 120 o'clock. The uni versity reopens on Thursday morn ing. April II.

 Excellent early season form was shown by the Yale baseball team in it's first game of the season with Trinity college of Hartford Saturday. In the visitors line up were Murray, short stop of Norwich, and L'Heureu, al so a former Academy player, of Jewett City. Trinity gave promise of an in teresting contest at the outset, Murray singling to left field and scoring aft CT Captain LHeureux placed double in deep left The latter tried to make his hit a triple and was nailed at third. Yale scored. in the same in- ming and made the game safe with four runs in the fifth, Captain Mer- ritt's homer in the sixth adding two runs more. The final score was Yale 2, Trinity 2.
 The University baseball team is starting it's Easter Southern trip, dur ing which it will play six games, meets Georgetown today at Washington. On April 5, Yale meets Cornell at Wash
 
 sity of Virginia at Norfolk. On Mon day and Tuesday, there are two games with Johns Hopkins at Baltimore, and the final game is with the New York Nationals at New York on Wednes- day, April 10.
 Measles broke out Saturday among members of the Freshman class living on York street, and to avoid an epi- demic of that disease among the stu dents the dormitories were at once closed and the men living in them given a more extended vacation-by three days-than their fellow students The report was rife that if another case of measles developed Dean Jones would dismiss the entire class, but all attempts to produce the desired artl- cle were intellectual and the class, as a whole, remained until the recess be- gan.
 Officially, it is stated that the five or six cases among the Freshman class are approximately no more than among the resident population of New Haven.
