BASEBALL SQUAD IN LONG WORKOUT FOR FIRST FRAY

FRESHMEN SPLIT UP IN PRACTICE SESSION OF SIX INNINGS

Having but little time left in which to get his team in shape for the opening game with Boston University on April 5, Coach Mitchell, baseball mentor, gave his squad a long workout yesterday, having two teams play a six inning practice game besides taking a regular workout. The Freshman squad also divided up and played a five inning match.

In the University game, team B, which was defeated last week by team A, turned the tables on their rivals and won yesterday's abbreviated game, 6 to 3. Despite the cool weather Coach Mitchell let his pitchers go the full route, both W. K. Page '31 and E. A. Colpak '29 pitching the entire six innings.

Team A was weakened by the absence of Captain G. E. Donaghey '29, F. E. Nugent '29, and E. H. McGrath '31, regular infielders who were not at practice.

The teams lined up yesterday as follows:

Team A: T. G. O'Neill '30, s.s.; A. G. Whitney '29, 2b.; J. A. Prior '29, 1b.; W. T. Gilligan '31, c.; R. E. Durkee '29, l.f.; P. A. Ketchum '31, 3b.; G. A. Donaldson '31, c.f.; C. P. Atherton, l.f.; Page, p.

Team B: K. W. Crotty, c.f.; J. J. Carver, 2b.; E. R. Todd '29, r.f.; H. H. Newell '29, 1b.; J. D. Dudley '31, c.; R. Gilmor '31, l.f.; E. J. Langhlin '31 and H. L. Hutable '30, 3b.; P. B. Weymouth '30, s.s.; Colpak, p.

In the Freshman game team B also trounced team A, here by a score of 6 to 2. Team B did not score, however, until Charles Devens '32 had retired from the pitching mound. While Devens was in the box he struck out five of the six men who faced him. Phineas Tobe '32, his opposing pitcher, except for the first two innings, kept things well under control. Tobe later on also figured heavily in his team's scoring when he cracked out a home run to deep right.

The two Freshman team lineups yesterday were:

Team A: E. D. Sprague '32, c.f.; Warren Delano '32 and Max Kutzer '32, 2b.; W. B. Wood '32, s.s.; Vogel '32, 3b.; R. J. Des Roches, l.f.; C. C. Cunningham '32, 1b.; A. J. Lupien '32, r.f.; Reginald Fincke '32, c.; Devens and F. O. White '32, p.

Team B: G. H. Nawn '32, c.f.; George Hopkinson '32, c.f.; E. H. Robinson '32, l.f.; A. D. Hill '32, 3b.; Ephron Catlin '32, s.s.; P. C. Martin '32, 2b.; G. L. Dow '32, 3b.; F. L. Howe '32, and C. R. Graff '32, c.; Tobe, p.
