St. Marks Nine Succumbs To Powerful '42 Attack, 17 to 5

Back in their spectacular season form, the 1942 baseball nine buried the St. Mark's batters 17 to 5, under a deluge of hits to chalk up their thirteenth win of the season yesterday on the enemy diamond.

The Samborskimen unleashed a burst of power in the first frame, to garner a total of nine runs. Les Pitchford and Mike Rice were potent at the bat, Pitchford cracking out a home run.

After a shaky first inning Jack Sullivan turned in a fine job on the mound, until the seventh frame when Ed Buckley relieved him. It was the big first baseman's first turn on the bill and he pitched well after getting his curve ball under control.

Ollie Cunningham and Ben Whitehill played well in the outfield.
