Clark, incidentally, led the Crimson batsmen with three for four, while his mates pounded Ed Ericson of Tufts for eight more safeties. Berg held the Jumbos to four scattered hite, and chalked up 11 strike-outs. Longest blow of the day was a home run by Don Calareso to account or one of Tufts' two scores...
