Batswomen Take Advantage of Terriers

Harvard's Mary Paul beat out a slow roller to the right side advanced to second in some ensuing confusion. She scored when the shortshop misplayed Baldauf's grounder.

MacKinnon, Barrest and Hayes slammed back-to-back-to-back singles, and Brown chipped in with another fielder's choice, as the Crimson drove up the score to 7-2.

"I was real pleased with the bats," Wentzeil said. "We had a lot of hitting, which was something we didn't do down south."

Rubin was boiled out of a tricky situation in the third, as Hayes and Baldauf turned a sharp 6-4-3 doubleplay to crease a batter who had reached on a walk.

In the home half of the third, Baldauf doubled and scored, surprise of surprises, on a subsequent error by first-sacker Smith. Of the light Harvard runs, then, four were directly attributable to B.U. errors.

The Terrier bats began to come alive in the fourth, as the visitors wrapped a pair of singles around a line drive to center. Baldual however, saved the day by grabbing a squibble tagging the runner moving up from Inst and completing the double-play with a quick throw to first.

"The defense was great, "Wentzell" said. "We had two double-plays in the game, and usually you see may be one a week."
