...Watson Stellar Performer in Field...
...Aldrich, to third base and shortstop respectively. Due to their inexperience in their new positions, the right side of the Yale infield is crude compared with the fast fielding Keyes and Trimble of Princeton. The other side of the infield is an even affair, with every prospect of stellar playing by McPhee and Cook, and Sawyer and Diamond respectively. In the outfield Princeton will make up for Yale's advantage in her heavier-hitting infield with the best college outerworks of the season. McNamara, Strubing and Lee are all dangerous batters and have had but on error checked against them...
Though the University players, especially Captain deTurenne in the singles, and Hyams and Fenno in the doubles, are favored to gain high rank, several stellar performers are entered, to whom the field is expected to narrow down.

Hawkes was barely second to Captain Garland on the Eli sextet, who recently sailed for England with the United States Davis Cup team. For Columbia, Fisher is an exceptionally fast netsman, while Kirk of Cornell and Levy...

...against Exeter today at Exeter, N. H. Coach Young is satisfied that the team which lost to Holy Cross 1923 9-8 last Wednesday is the best combination possible at present, and one which will give a good account of itself in the game today. G. Owen, who pitched stellar ball for seven innings against Holy Cross, will again be in the box for the Freshmen. Against the Exeter pitchers, who are the chief weakness of their team, the 1923 batsmen should be able to make a good showing in the hit and run column...
