...baseball careers this June. The Crimson would feel confident of victory tomorrow were it not for the fact that Tom Healey has been treated rather roughly in his last two starts. The Ithacans shelled him off the mound three weeks ago but on that occasion he was attempting to twirl his second game in as many days. This time he will be fully rested.
