FRESHMAN BALL TEAM SWAMPED

Cushing Gathers 26 Hits From Five Yearling Pitchers

Knocking four pitchers out of the box for a total of 26 hits, the Cushing Academy team swamped the yearling nine yesterday afternoon, 28 to 5.

The game was one sided from the beginning, the visitors scoring 11 runs in the opening inning. Although the Freshmen knocked out ten hits, three of them for three bases each, they were unable to bunch them satisfactorily to swell the score.

Sixteen different men were used by Coach Young during the game, the frequent changes resulting in bad infield work with six errors. Cordingly, Toulmin, Spalding, Hammond, and Gibb were used in succession on the mound before the third out in the ninth ended the schoolboy hitting spree.

The visitors' play was likewise marred by errors although the indent work was for the most part fast and steady.
