1924 PITCHING STAFF UNUSUALLY PROMISING

Daily improvement us shown in the ability of the Freshman baseball squad, and especially of the pitchers. Speed, slow-ball pitching, and good head-work have been plainly evident in the short practice games, but the greatest cause for optimism is the fact that there are several men who promise to be above the average of mounds men, rather than only one or two.

In informal practice yesterday with Rindge Technical player Coach Young had opportunity to test most of the men on the squad, and good playing was not confined only to the first line-up sent in A.S. Rogers, although inexperienced as a pitcher, showed good headwork and control on the mound, and Harry Wheeler, relieving Rogers, may be developed into a dependable man.

Grouped hits by the yearlings and poor baseball on the part of the schoolboys gave the former eight runs, Rindge scored two. Neither team put up a heavy hitting game, but clever pieces of fielding were numerous.

This afternoon the Freshman nine will match its skill with the University in a practice match.
