...University team, and believe that they will get together in the remaining games and play real baseball. No one has doubted the amount of baseball ability that is latent in this year's squad, but it has never appeared in any of the many different combinations thus far attempted. If this period of mediocrity can be called the proverbial mid-season slump, at lease one record has been broken-the length of time it has lasted...
