BATTERS MEET GREEN NINE

Healey With Sore Arm May Not Hurl '43 Plays Yale

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The batting orders: Harvard  Dartmouth Keyes, ss  1b, Jones Whittemore, 3b  cf, Broberg Pitchford, lf  2b, Orr Macdonald, cf  lf, Burns Buckely, 1b  rf, Reeves Healey, p  ss, Lendo Hartstone, rf  c, Sommers Fulton, c  3b, Fitch Merrill, 2b  p, Hughes

As Captain Tom Healey, leading hurler on the Crimson nine, is suffering from a sore arm that may keep him inactive, the Dartmouth batsmen invade Soldiers Field tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock confident of making it two in a row over the Stahlmen who, dogged by misfortune all season long, have now suffered the loss of their hard-hitting first-sacker, Bill Tully.

Starting with the loss of pitcher Charley Brackett, the squad has been continually frowned on by Lady Luck. Gil Whittemore was laid up with a bad leg; Torby Macdonald's sprained ankle kept him out of competition for several weeks; Gene Lovett and Charley Spreyer dropped out of regular competition; and now Tully shows indication of a hernia that will probably keep him out of uniform for the remainder of the playing season.

Ed Buckley, who capably held down the initial hassock on his Freshman nine last year, has already been switched over from second base to take Tully's post and Dick Merrill has taken over the duties on second. The hole in the batting order caused by his absence is not as easily filled as the first base post, however, and according to Coach Stahl the offensive power of the team will be considerably less without the red-headed junior.

Yardlings Play Yale

The Freshman contest with Milton which was originally scheduled for Wednesday and postponed until yesterday was finally called off completely because of showers and wet grounds. The remaining game for the '43 squad is the Yale struggle also slated for tomorrow.

Joe Phelan will start on the mound for the Samberskimen and Bob Axtell will receive. Art Scully, shortstop, Jack (Poech) Haley, centerfielder, and Bart Harvey, second-sacker, are the team's leading batters.
