BASEBALL COMMENTS. ; This is an important week in athletic circles for the University. On Wednesday we play Univer sity of Vermont in Raleigh, on Thursday we play them on our home grounds, on Friday we par ticipate in the field-day exercises at Trinity Park, Durham, and on Saturday we cross bats with Oak Ridge on our diamond. Vermont had one of the strongest nines in the country last year, and it is reported that they are equally as strong this year, so lovers of good ball playing have a treat in store for them. Princeton played them last week and met their match. Lanier will occupy the box for us in Raleigh and Stephens will pitch Thursday's game. We ex pect to win one of the games at least. The playing of the men since the Durham game has been irregular and not steady. Our - fielders have not been playing their accustomed game. Busbee is not safe on ground balls and needs practice in judging flies. Moye and Robertson have made several bad errors. Ellis at sec ond has not been holding his own. We are pleased to note the change i h the infield, putting Stanly at second and Grav at w short. This is a wise step, and we predict that this new combi nation will work to good advant age. Mason at third is strong at times but continues uncertain. PERSONALS Misses Janet a n d Kathrine Badger are on the Hill, the guests of Miss Eleanor Alexander. Mr. W. A.
