Cricket Club.

The Cricket Club is now practising every afternoon on the upper end of Holmes Field, and, as the Tennis Association has given up the courts there, the Cricket Club will use that ground the rest of the season. It was originally intended to sod a crease on Norton's Field, but the plan was abandoned as impracticable.

The eleven is showing up in good shape. Six or seven of the old men are candidates again this year, but the places of Brown, Balch, Frost, and Crowninshield will have to be filled with new men. The captain is desirous of having a large number of candidates to choose from, and would like all baseball men, even if they don't know how to play cricket, to come out and learn the game.

At present the team is somewhat weak in bowlers. The men, however, who have been practising regularly in the cage show great improvement in their batting.

Albert Whitehouse, the Ottawa cricket player, will begin to coach the eleven about May 1, and his training will undoubtedly greatly strengthen the team.

The first game will be played with the Mystics of Medford, April 25.

There was a game scheduled to be played with Columbia, but as nothing further has been heard with reference to it, it will probably not take place.
