Worst injury of the season occurred in the early part of play when Clive McReady, forward of the New York team, was carried from the field with a broken leg.

...Hollywood's attention back to a uniquely American type of hero, the hairy-chested Western badman. But the chest of "The Oklahoma Kid" is sparsely covered with hair.

Coach Cariss needs additional pitching strength in the worst way, because Reagan can't possibly assume all mound duties. For the most part, the other Penn moundsmen are an untried lot and need much work under fire to bring them up to League standards. Lin Fawley and Tony Caputo are the hurlers in question, and each has been received rather roughly in starting assignments this year. All in all, it's safe to predict a rise for the Quakers this season because Reagan is good for a few victories but they aren't going...
