The College baseball team began the season with a long southern trip, which, although not so successful as had been hoped, was nevertheless creditable. Although the team lost the Virginia and Georgetown games by decisive scores, it succeeded in winning five victories from North Carolina and Trinity, and in breaking even on the entire trip. The work thus far has been quite characteristic of inexperienced organizations, but it certainly gives promise of better things. A good fighting spirit is manifest, and that may atone for the absence of seasoned players. Coach Ralph Glaze '06 was with the squad before the southern trip, and Coach J. T. Keady '05 is in control for the rest of the season.
The summaries of the southern games, and the schedule, are appended.
DARTMOUTH 4—A. AND M. 2
Dartmouth opened its season at Raleigh, N. C., April 9, with a 4 to 2 victory over the North Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical College nine. Captain Glaze showed rare form in the box, and batted strongly, Leonard and Langdell also did excellent work. Each team made five errors, but the misplays rarely counted in the scoring. The summary:

DARTMOUTH 3—A. AND M. I Dartmouth's second game with the Argicultural and Mechanical College, April 7, was a well played contest, in which Mitchell's good pitching and a little timely batting brought another victory to the Green. Sexton, however, pitched very well, holding Dartmouth to four singles and a double. The Dartmouth infield solved a serious situation in the ninth inning by a fast double play. The summary:

TRINITY 10—DARTMOUTH O
Trinity College, Durham, N. C., defeated Dartmouth April 8, by the score of 10 to 0. The one-sidedness of the contest was due largely to numerous infield errors, which the visitors bunched in the first few innings. After the fourth, however, Dartmouth played excellent ball, and showed by contrast what may be expected of an inexperienced team. Eaton led both teams at the bat. The summary:

DARTMOUTH 5—TRINITY I
The second game with Trinity, April 9, resulted in a clean-cut victory for Dartmouth. Captain Glaze was again in the boxr and held his heavy opponents to three scattered hits. Dartmouth clinched its victory in the eighth inning, when bases on balls to Leonard and Conroy, a triple by Langdell, Hobart's double, a single by Brady, an error, and Glaze's double netted five runs.

VIRGINIA 10—DARTMOUTH 0
Dartmouth lost to the University of Virginia, at Charlottesville April 13, by the score of 10 to 0. Both teams played excellent ball until the sixt, when Virginia began a batting bee that lasted the rest of the game. Dartmouth, on the other hand, did not hit consistently, and was guilty of several sins of omission in the field. The summary:

GEORGETOWN 14—DARTMOUTH 6
The Georgetown game, April 14, was essentially a repetition of the Virginia game-Dartmouth held its opponents well for a time, only to be vanquished by tremendous hitting. Captain Glaze pitched excellent ball till the eighth, when Georgetown made eight hits, including two home runs by MacDonald. Mitchell, who succeeded him, struck out three men in the eighth.
