Freshman Nine Wins Game With B.U., 4-1

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The undefeated freshman baseball team picked up its eighth straight win of the season yesterday, whipping the B.U. freshman squad, 4 to 1. Right-hander Wally Cook went all the way to gain the victory, his fourth of the year.

The Yardlings' offense was led by centerfielder Bob Forbush, who drove in two runs and contributed to a third. In the first inning, his single moved Al Martin, previously hit by a pitch, to second, and Martin then scored on two successive walks.

An inning later, Terrier pitcher Alf Kearns, who had control problems in the early frames, hit Stu Forbes with a pitch. Cook advanced him with a bunt single, and after a sacrifice both of them scored on Forbush's second safety of the day.

Cook allowed only six hits, four of them in the eighth, when B.U. scored its single run. The Yardlings collected ten hits in all.

The Crimson freshmen will play Phillips Academy, Andover, this afternoon.
