NINE GETS OFF TO ADVERSE START IN VACATION GAMES

Team Seems Strong in Field But Cannot Bunch Hits-West Point Game Called On Account of Rain

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Handicapped by rain and wet playing fields, the University nine made a discouraging start on its 1932 bid for the collegiate diamond crown.

In the first game scheduled, that with Pennsylvania, the Crimson team was the victim of adverse fortune, garnering an equal number of hits as their opponents but failing to send a single man across the plate and losing 2-0. The game scheduled with West Point had to be called off on account of rain.

The University team is strong in the field but seems to lack hitting power and the ability to bunch hits to advantage.

The game with Pennsylvania was marked by the paucity of hits, so that it became a pitching duel.
