BABE TO LEAD TIGERS
Coach Dawson Appoints a Junior ITO
Captain Baseball Tcam-Infielders
and OutfieIders Hold Practice

Princeton, N. j., March ia
squad of nearly fifty candidates an
swered Coach Fred Dawson's first
call for varsity baseball men yester-
day afternoon in the cage. The BAT
terry candidates have been working
daily for nearly three weeks, but yes
terday afternoon was the first prac-s
tice for the infield and outfield candi-
dates.
William II. Bade a member Of the
Junior class, has been appointed cap
tain of the varsity nine by Coach
Dawson. Babe was one of the lead
ing members of the 1919 freshman
team two years ago and was oCcrpy-
ing the third base position last spring
when the Tiger schedule was called
off owing to the declaration of war
Babe came to Princeton from Poly
Prep, where he was a member of the
nine for three years, captaining the
team in his final year. He is one Of
the best infielders the Tigers have had
for some years and his batting aver
age two years ago was we'll over 800.
The outlook at present is encourage
ing, although Ernie Savage remains
as the only experienced boxmah.
Savage pitched on his freshman nine
two years ago ana neld the Y ale cuDS&
in that year to two hits. He pitched
two games last spring for the var
sftv and then left to enter the am
bulance service in France, where he
remained until February. Taylor, q
senior. has shown considerable natur
al ability.
Trimble, the versatile sophomore
who is now starring as forward on
the basketball five, appears to be the
logical choice behind the bat. His
regular position is in the outt1eld " bud
in his limited experience as back
stop he has exhibited promising
ability.
The infield should be the strong E.
est portion of the Tiger varsity. Cap
tain Babe at third, Bauhan at short.
Madden at second and Horne at f1rst
have all proved their worth in pre-
viOus years.
The outtield must be chosen from
new men. The departure of Bill (
GRAY into naval service took away the
only experienced man in college.
Gray has played for the Tigers the
last two years, and was one of the
hardest hitters in the university
TayIor, Sfdler and Page played on
their freshman. teams, but have had
no varsity experience.
