Lefty Bud Waldstein, last year's outstanding twirler, is expected to lead the list. He compiled the best cumulative pitching record last year, although Burgy Ayres was the possessor of the lowest earned run average for the season. Ayres will be back again this year but will be unable to start baseball practice until the present hockey season is over...
Although the Harvard Varsity eleven faces its toughest schedule in years minus the services of Charlie Spreyer, first-string fullback who has been called by Uncle Sam, and Bud Waldstein and Stan Durwood, two capable reserves who went on pro after finals last year, the Crimson outlook is growing brighter day by day as Coach Dick Harlow whips a number of rapidly-improving Sophomores into shape as reserves, and a sheaf of men from the injured list return to active duty today...

Yale got the lone tally in her half of the second on two clean singles and two passes, all coming after two men were out.
