18 VARSITY BATTERY MEN REPORT FOR PRACTICE

Coach Fred Mitchell looked over a turnout of 18 Varsity battery prospects in the first call for baseball candidates at Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon and was faced with the task of building up an almost entirely new staff of pitchers and catchers from the ranks of Jayvees and Freshman teams of last year.

The candidates were led by Captain Edward F. Loughlin, Jr. '34, the only returning letterman and was strengthened by additions from the Jayvees. Among those who were members of the Junior Varsity last year and who are expected to fill the shoes of the men who were lost by graduation are Dorilio C. Bragiotti '35, James F. Carty '35, Martin Victor '35, and Frank W. Allan '34. Carty, Bragiotti, and Victor were members of the Freshman team of two years ago and all have seen service on the Jayvees. Victor was the first-string twirler on the Freshman team of that year and with the additional seasoning is expected to help make up for the loss of Harold E. Taylor '33 and John F. McJennett '33, who were mainstays on last year's Varsity nine.

Those who are coming up from the successful Freshman team and the ineligibles of last year include Gerald A Bramwell '37, John J. P. Campana '36 Robert Day '36, Elmer Grimes '36, and Norman S. Ingalls '36. Ingalls was the star of the 1936 outfit and succeeded in winding up the season with a win over Yale. Bramwell is considered one of the most promising of the second year men. Others who turned out were Frank White '36 and Allison F. Walsh '34.
