Baseball Hopes Soar

Crimson hopes for a strong baseball team received a decided lift yesterday when it was announced that Paul Delahoyde '44 last year's Freshman first-string catcher, would not be drafted, as was feared, but had joined the Marines, and had been deferred until September. Delahoyde and Captain Ned Fitzgibbons, were the standouts on the mediocre 1941 Yardling team, both of them good hitters and accurate ball-handlers.
