They were not enjoying the camp very much and thought they had better get back home. The Rensselaer boys were all in good heatlh and spirits, but their baseball playing was not equal to that of the larger and somewhat better players from Chicago and Muncie and they believed that Rensselaer would drop out of the contest before th'j .scheduled games were completed. It is thought probable that some of the other boys will come home before the end of this week, and the remainder will be home Saturday.
