NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Continuing their heavy hitting activities and aided by ragged fielding in the inner defense of the visiting team, the Freshman ball tossers ran their season record of straight victories to six, with a 12 to 7 win over. Deerfield Academy on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. Malloy took up the pitching duties, while Ketchum rested after turning back the Brown sluggers last Tuesday, and he kept the situation well in hand with the exception of the sixth and last innings when the school boys bunched seven of their eight hits to score seven markers. The Crimson moundman retired eight of the visitors by way of the strike out route.

After counting once in the initial frame, the 1929 squad bombarded Cole, the Deer-field hurler with four hits in the third, and chased five runs across the plate. In the following session the Freshmen continued their scoring when Durkee was hit by a pitched ball, Prior and McGehee walked, and Elkins and Dewing connected safely. The visitors came back in the first of the sixth with four runs. Cole was hit by Malloy at the plate, and Wilson, Black, and Ensign, the next three men to face the Freshman twirler planted safe blows the last man to hit scoring on Earnes infield out. Malloy then settled down and struck the next two men out.

Donaghy Freshman third baseman, and Elkins, 1929 second sacker, captured the hitting honors with two bingles each.
