Ball Team Takes 19 Day Breather From Ivy League

Cornell, Columbia, Harvard Tie for 3rd

Needless of the Crimson Varsity's 19-day breather, the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League whirls on to the completion of its 1942 campaign. Not until May 9, when it meets Columbia on Soldiers Field, will the Harvard nine have another lick at Ivy circuit competition.

A weeks ago it traveled to Princeton and Columbia and split those contests. Since then it has encountered no League competition but has lost to Northeastern and smashed B. U.

Crimson in Triple Tie

Dartmouth and Princeton are momentarily deadlocked for the League lead with a record of two wins and one defeat each. Strung along the .500 fence are Harvard, Columbia, and Cornell with Penn and Yale bringing up the rear.

Individually, the team has split its wins and losses between pitchers Mort Waldstein and Lou Clay. At bat, Clay has taken nine trips and totaled .556, second only to catcher Harry Turner of Cornell, who has turned in seven turns at the plate. Waldstein with nine turns up, is hitting .444 and Bart Harvey with .429 is the first Crimson regular to register. The batters with 10 or more at bats are in order:   Games  ab  r  h  rbi  avg. A.
