FOOTBALL ROBS BASEBALL OF REGULAR CATCHER CHEEK

M. A. Cheek Jr. '26, captain of next year's football team and regular catcher last year on the baseball nine announced yesterday that he would not report to Coach Mahan of the ball team this season in order to give his entire attention to spring gridiron practice.

Last year Cheek was the regular catcher until the Cornell game when his hand was injured by a foul tip. His place was taken by A. W. Samborski '25 until the Yale series. Cheek caught in both the Yale games. His home run with two on bases was one of the features of the second game with the Elis.
