Mason '22 starred both in the field and at bat, making a beautiful one-handed stop of C. MacDonald's hot grounder that threatened in the sixth, and netting two hits, one of them the double that brought home the winning tally. S. B. Chase Jr. '21 played a steady game at shortstop, and J.

Conlon came home and Perkins went to third when Jones reached the keystone bag on the attempt to catch Conlon at the plate.
