Text | The base ball management has shown unusual enterprise this winter, introducing several new features into the work of the candidate for the nine. The latest thing proposed by the energetic captain, S. W. Winslow, '85, is the establishment of a second nine, which will give the regular 'varsity and freshman nines much needed practice during the coming season. This is a thing that ought to have been done years ago, and indeed, it was unsuccessfully tried in 1882, but the Harvard captains for many years have either been incompetent or unable to carry out their ideas, and many things have been left undone. It is intended that this second nine shall play no games except with the college nines, and these about four or five times a week. When not playing a game they will assemble on the field as usual and “knock up” for the regular men. |
