FRESHMEN LOSE TO ANDOVER

Field Cleanly but Bow to Schoolboys' Powerful Hitting-Yearlings Fail to Score Until the Eighth.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A walk in the ninth with three men on was responsible for the 3-2 Freshmen defeat at the hands of the Andover Academy team at Andover on Saturday afternoon. The yearlings played almost an errorless game and the Academy players had seven errors scored against them, the schoolboys were able to gain the lead early in the game and to hold the Freshmen scoreless until the eighth when both the 1925 runs were made. Superior hitting was the keynote of the Andover success for the victors pounded out eight timely hits against the visitors' three drives.

Woodruff was the first to score when he took advantage of the only Crimson error to get on base. A sacrifice hit sent him to second and from there he stole to a threatening position at third. Walting for his opportunity he took a long lead and stole safely to the plate.

Owl Gets Neat Single

The next run followed in the third but this time it was purely a result of superior hitting. Owl started the rally with a neat single and stole second. A long double sent him to third and he came home on Woodruff's single.

The yearlings made an attempt to come back in the fourth. Samborski got a clean hit followed by a double by Doherty, but a strike-out and an easy grounder to the first baseman put an end to the inning.

Vocke and Hammond Score

Up till the eighth no runner was able to get by second, but in that inning two walks and a hit netted runs by Vocke

and Hammond. The winning tally was made by Owl when he was forced home when Cushing walked to first with the bases full.

Will Meet Huntington at Four

The Freshman baseball team will face the Huntington School nine on Soldiers Field at 4 o'clock this afternoon. The visitors have a formidable pitching staff and a hard-hitting team. In the contest with the second University nine it was only the remarkable no-hit mound-work of Brown that kept the Crimson on the long end of the 3-1 score, so the yearlings will have considerable difficulty in bringing about another victory.

The Freshman line-up:

Burgess, l.f.; Vocke, 1b.; Hammond, 2b.; Samborski, c.; Doherty, c.f.; Toulmin, 3b.; Mann, s.s.; Hodder, r.f.; Herman, p
