MAYS AND DEVENS GET 1932 BASEBALL AWARDS

E. A. Mays, Jr. '32 and Charles Devens '32 have been awarded respectively the Barrett Wendell Junior Trophy Bat and the Wingate Memorial Cup, the Harvard Athletic Association announced last night. The Wendell Trophy, a mahogany bat, is given each year to the best offensive player on the Harvard nine. The award is mathematically figured out upon the number of times the winner reached first base, his number of stolen bases, total runs and sacrifice hits.

The contest was close between Mays and W. B. Wood, Jr. '32. Mays had a batting average of 393 against Wood's 427 average but Mays stole 14 bases to Wood's three and reached first base 56 times to Wood's 52. Mays, who is now a Freshman proctor, played second base last spring, and was a member of the team for two years previously.

As best all-round baseball player, Devens has been awarded the Wingate Cup.
