JOURNALISTIC NINE ANXIOUS ON EVE OF FIRST PRACTICE

Typewriters will cease to jingle on Plympton Street today when the CRIMSON baseball nine adjourns its journalistic endeavors to open serious practice for Saturday's game with the editors of the Daily Princetonian on Soldiers Field. It has been decided that the practice will be secret but its location is as yet unsettled, due to the difficulty of discovering a handy spot where absolute secrecy and silence are inherent.

Captain H. C. Bartlett '28 of the CRIMSON nine admitted last night that he was uneasy over the rumors that had filtered out from the Princetonian camp. It has been reported that the Tigers, practicing diligently behind closed doors have imbibed a complicated system of inside baseball from a coach whose identity and, as some declare, existence is shrouded in mystery. Careful examination of the terms of the CRIMSON Princetonian athletic agreement has failed to disclose a clause forbidding the shrouding of a coach's identity or existence, in mystery, but the rumor forms part of the atmosphere of tense interest and suspense that is beginning to pervade the country as the date of the game approaches.
