Howard stemmed the tide for an inning or so, but in the fifth, Notre Dame got on to his delivery with a devastating vengence. Every kind of hit, from a single to a homerun, came off the bats of the hard-hitting sluggers from Indiana. Howard Whitmore '29, the next Crimson twirler to see action, replaced Howard.
