Card, eluding the University defense for four baskets, was Amherst's heavy scorer. He was the strongest player of his team, but because of the frequent substitutions he was unable to count on his men for any team play. He and Lee were the leading offenders in the many fouls during the game, both being ejected for four personals...

The enthusiastic, confidence which University baseball men place in Coach Slattery is not only a tribute to his coaching; it will count for much in the-morale of the team this spring. From 1914 to the end of 1917 Coach Slattery was coach of the Tufts baseball nine, rescuing that team from a bad slump in playing and causing it to be known as one of the strongest teams in the country.
