The fall baseball season this year has been highly successful. For over a month the candidates for the University and Freshman teams have held practice on Soldiers Field. About twenty-five or thirty men reported regularly for the University team, and about the same number for the Freshman team. In all, thirteen games were played with outside teams, as well as daily practice games. As far as the outside season goes, the team was fairly successful, winning eight games and losing four, while one was tied. However, the authorities are not so much interested with the actual results of the outside games as with the development of material. The work has been extremely valuable, both in improving the men, and in bringing out new material. A very large proportion of the candidates this fall were men who have not hitherto been on the University squad.
The Freshmen who came out also received much benefit from the coaching they received from Dr. Sexton and from the members of the University squad. The squad had some very promising material, even though football probably kept a number of candidates away who would otherwise have been out.
The batting averages of the ten highest men (including only those who played in four or more games) follow: Ayres, .448; Frye, .444; Harte, .375; Nash, .333; Bernson, .333; Safford, .333; Gannett, .250; Coolidge, .230; O'Day, .158; Ames, .143.
