...southpaw Nekola will not pitch today after his feat of Thursday, when he shut out Boston College and held that team to a lone safety. Dobens, however, who twirled the Crusaders last year to victory over Harvard, may start, and will almost certainly see action if the Crimson bats get going. Coach Barry indicated last night that he might start Hebert, who held the Quantico Marines to three scattered singles, or the portsided Sims. In case the latter is called upon for mound duty, B. H. Ticknor '31 will play the center garden, but if a right hander pitches...
