NEW HAVEN, Conn, Feb. t9.-Man-
ager Bob FL. Paul to-day announced the
Yale baseball schedule for the season
of 1921. 1t is the most extensive list
of games ever arranged by a Yale man
ager, there being forty-one contests
in all.
Much has already been said Of the
Southern trip and of the games which
will be played at Macon, Ga. Upon re-
turning from the Dixie States" the
Ellis will meet the University of YER
mont in the premier at Yale Field.
Then in rapid succession come games
with Fordham, Penn and Columbia, all
Of whom will have their customary
strong mines.
1t is pleasing feature that Yale has
drawn so many advantageous dates
Patriot Day, which is always a big
holiday in New England, will find the
New Haven men at Worcester, when
they will meet Jack Barry's Holy Cross
men in the first of series Of three
games. Other desirable dates are the
Cornell, Columbia and Brown games
Yale is Cornell's selection for the
seat of honor at her spring day fes-
tiVities in Ithaca. The Ellis are the
guests of Brown on June IS, alumni
day at Providence. On Memorial Day
Yale will be in action against Column
bia at South Field
To Play Japanese Team
An interesting change in Yale's pol
icy is that in case of the games with
Princeton or Harvard the play-offs will
both be held in New York The Uni
versity of Toxic will meet the Blue
team in New Haven. This should cause
no little interest, for it will be the
first chance for the students here to
see an Oriental team play
Pittsburgh and Syracuse are new
corners on the university's list, and as
both have unusually strong agereea-
! tions Yale will have to show form tc

1t is to be regretted that the Yale
| management could not see its way
clear to arrange a game with the
Giants, as has always been played ii

fit
AS in the past, the championship
! three-game series with both Princeton
and Harvard have been arranged. Last

versity. They include the commence
ment matches at Harvard and Prince

Patriots Day game with Holy Cross
and the Memorial Day game with Co
