FRESHMAN NINE TO LINE UP AGAINST WORCESTER

Coach Davidson and the 1927 baseball nine will meet Worcester Academy at 3 o'clock this afternoon on the Freshman diamond. The schoolboys went back to Worcester last year with the short end of a 15 to 4 score and they will be eager for revenge.

A week ago, Bryant and Stratton fell before the Worcester attack, 17 to 3. A veritable deluge of hits came from the Academy's bats, and a Freshman victory this afternoon will depend largely on the ability of Gates or Clifford to baffle the Worcester batsmen. On Wednesday, Fitchburg Normal School was shut out by Coach Delehanty's nine, 10 to 0. This impressive record augurs a hard battle for the Freshman team which will line up with its full strength on the field.

Gates or Clifford to be on Mound

Either Gates or Clifford will get the pitching assignment this afternoon. Glifford has almost recovered from his sprained ankle and should be ready. His return to shape rounds out Coach Davidson's hurling staff and if he works well this afternoon, the 1927 nine will have few worries from now on about its pitching.
