...baseball team will attempt to make a comeback from its temporary slump this afternoon when it meets the Andover nine on the Freshman field at 2.30 o'clock. The schoolboy game today will be the last encounter for the Freshmen before their crucial test and will afford Coach Davidson a final opportunity to estimate the power of his outfit...
Although he worked against the St. John's team on Wednesday, Barbee is again slated for the mound today. Captain Jones will be back in the line-up and will replace Nordberg, who played the last game in center field. Coach Davidson, however, expects to use Nordberg at left field, taking out Adams, who has played the position in all the early season games...

In Linscott, Cozzens, and Cutts, Coach Davidson has three men who have shown themselves reliable in the pinches. Cozzens won his only start, that against Hotchkiss, by an overwhelming score. Linscott has held every team against which he has been entered, and Cutts, although he has not seen service in a regular game, has proved his worth in practice games against the Seconds. It is probable that at least one of these men will be sent in this afternoon unless the contest is unusually close...
