Ulysses "Lupe" Lupien, '39 Crimson diamond leader, threatens to give Harvard its first major league ball player since Charley Devene. After two seasons in the minors with Scranten and Little Rock, both Boston Red Sox farm clubs, Lupien has been called up to the parent organization for the closing games of the year.
He hit over .320 this year for Little Rock, a team which features night baseball, and continued to field in big league fashion at first base. He has been used in three Red Sox games so far, is batting .444 and fielding 1.000. Lupien will be given a thorough tryout with Boston next spring.
He is copceded an excellent chance to make the grade, but if he fails, he will probably be sent to Louisville, an AA league, for an additional year of seasoning.
