Husky coach Herb Gallagheer is not sure whether he will start his ace, southpaw senior Dick Sheldon, or his number two moundsman, sophomer right-hander John Costello, against the Crimson.

The sophomore righthander pitched a pair of two-hitters this season before being relatively ineffective against Brown's powerful southpaw batsmen last Wednesday.
