Booth ace of the Freshman team of two years ago, will probably be Coach artchell's mound choice. In case Booth falters, Cutts, Sophomore moundsman, will probably take up the burden. Cutts let down Springfield with six hits, the University nine winning 2 to 0. That was Cutts' last debut, and he has not pitched since. Puffer pitched on Saturday against Pennsylvania and Barbee is scheduled to try his hand at Tiger taming this week...

Ketchum, the 1929 mound ace was touched for nine safeties but bore down hard in the pinches and aided by airtight support in the infield was able to hold the Purple first-year hitters to one run. Miyakawa, the flashy Japanese short fielder, continued to shine in the Crimson attack with two scored runs, two hits, and a base on balls. Donaghy wielded the heavy bludgeon in the afternoon's play. The Freshman third sacker drove out a four ply wallop in the first inning to account...
