BASEBALL GAMES.
An Eastern Trip is Vert Probable
This Spring.
Recently several dates have been
changed and several new games have
been decided upon. One of the
series of western games with Cornell
will be played at Grand Rapids on
June 17, and the game which was to
have been played with them at Ith-
ica on May 27 will be played there
on June 3. Other new games are:
April 29, Illinois at Ann Arbor;
May 13, Hatilton Club at Ann Ar-
bor; June 5, Lafayette at Easton,
Pa.; June 6, Pennsylvania at Phila.
delphia. These last two games will
be played if Pennsylvania can in-
duce Lehigh, with whom she has a
game for June, to play on some
other day. If this can be done the
much talked of eastern trip for the
baseball team will be a fact.
The Eliqibilitu ol Contestants.
The committee appointed for the
purpose by the Athletic Board hass
reported on the eligibility of con-
testants in the Fresh-Soph meet to be
held Saturday afternoon. The re-
port is to the effect that a student
shall be considered a member of the
class he belonged to during the first
semester and that any one who has
26 hours to his credit besides that
arising from his last semester's work
shall be considered a sophomore and
any one having 56 hours credit be-
sides that obtained last semester shall
be considered a junior.
This last provision is for those who
may not have had the full credit of
a sophomore or junior last semester,
but whose work this year would place
them in the more advanced class. It
also provides for those who have re-
ceived 26 or more hours advanced
ctedit classifying them as second
year men.

Interest in boxing and wrestling is
increasing daily as is shown by the
men working along this line in the
gymnasium. Athletes are becoming
more interested in this line of sport
than they were formerly, and some
of the best men in the University
are now at it. Especial attention
will be given these contests at the
'Varsity meet to be held a week from
tomorrow. The boxing and wrest-
ling events will be held in the after-
noon, and from the present outlook
some sharp contests may be expected.
Such men as Steckle, Avery, Loud
and Richardson have already entered
the heavy-weight wrestling class.
'Te best boxers in college are prac-
ticitg for te meet.
Prof. II. M. Slausen will discuss

day.
