Martin J. Shay, who has coached the 1922 nine through an unusually successful season, will leave Cambridge this week to join the Washington team of the American League.
Coach Duffy has been very much satisfied with Shay's coaching of the 1922 nine. Out of 11 games the Freshman lost only to Middlesex and Princeton and beat Yale, 3-0.
Shay has had two-years experience with major and minor league clubs. In 1916 he played short-stop on the Chicago "Cubs" and the following year he played the same position on the St. Joseph team of the Western League. Before coming to the University as coach, he played with the Charlestown Navy Yard team.
Last week Shay received an offer of a position as short-stop on the Washington nine from Clarke Griffiths, manager of the team. He bought his release from the St. Joseph team, to which he expected to return this summer, and will join the "Senators" immediately.
