TODAY t t e -t t e; - a THE U. OF M. MEETS THE CRACK AMATEUR TEAM TODAY. A Closely Contested Game In Pros- pect-'Varsity Team Will be in Good Shape-Yesterday's Prac- tice at the Field. Michigan's old rival, the Detroit Ath- letic club, will be here this afternoon for a contest, which will commence promptly at 3:30 o'clock. During the past five years. the D. A. C. has had one of the strongest amateur teams in the West. Besides wissning everything from the .various clubs. in this section they have met, and fre- quently defeated, the representative amateur organizations of the East. In 1892 they held the championship of the United States, defeating the New York Athletic club, which contested for honors with them. Sincei that time the elub has retained a first class team, and has frequently defeated Michigan both here and at Detroit. Among their players are soiee men who have been with the organization until the bare mention of the team suggests their familiar names. Ducharme, who plays first base, is one of the best am- ateurs in the state. Other good men are the Guthard brothers, Guing, Kel- sey and ltathburne. Not much is known of the team's strength this sea- son, but they have been organized for three weeks, (luring which time active practice has been indulged in. Yesterday the 'varsity practice was given up to batting and fielding. The men were slightly wearied as a result of Thursday's contest, but some spir- ited work was accomplished notwith- standing. Bloomingston was given a trial at second base. He is slightly erratic, but handles the sphere well, and covers considerable territory. Shields, ankle is still weak, but lie re- sumed his position and will probably experience no more trouble from it. The line up of the D. A. C. has not been obtained, but the 'varsity will be made up as follows: Condon, c.; Watkins, p.; McKenze, 1b.; Bloonsingston, 2b.; Deans, 3b.; Itussell, ss.; Butler, 1f.; Sexton, cf. and'captain; Holmes; rf.
