Varsity Ball Team Just Misses Shutout Against B.U. in Ninth; Game Ends 8-2

Mort Waldstoin had a shutout in the palm of his resourceful left hand against B. U. yesterday afternoon on Soldiers Field going into the ninth inning. But when the top half of that frame was over, the Terriors had sneaked across two runs on one hit to ruin his perfect performance but leave them still on the short end on an 8-2 score.

Waldstein fully equaled his 1941 2-1 hurling yesterday, and no visitor reached third base before the ninth except Captain Charlie Thomas on a passed ball in the first. On top of that, the Crimson hurler struck out eight and distributed only your walks. For five innings B. U. could not get a hit and then wasted two in the sixth and one in each of the remaining chapters.

The Crimson did not excell at bat, excepting only Bart Harvey's three-for-four performance which included a long triple to left. B. U.'s left fielder Jim Cassidy knocked out the only other extra base hit with a long but inconsequential double to left in the seventh.

The home team's biggest inning was the lucky seventh, when Harvey led, off with a single and, after Ned Fitzgibbons and Buckley were retired, singles by the next four batters scored four runs and sowed up the ball game. Buckley's single in the eighth scored Gerry Callanan, who had walked, for the final Crimson tally.
