'55 Nine Chooses Fullback as Head

George L. MacDonald Jr. of Marblehead and Wigglesworth Hall was elected captain of the freshman baseball team Saturday after the team's 11 to 6 victory over Governor Dummer at South Byfield. MacDonald, first string pitcher, bars in the number three slot. He was first string fullback on the Yardling football team.

Second baseman Frank Nahigian led the team against Dummer, hitting three important singles, good for four runs batted in. Nahigian sparked the Yardling five-run fourth inning with a bases-loaded single.

The Crimson trailed, 5 to 2, entering the fourth frame, but Nahigian's single put them in front to stay.

The Yardlings picked up two runs in the first and eighth innings and scored single counters in the fifth and ninth frames. The last run came after MacDonald opened the inning with the longest hit of the day, a triple. He scored on winning pitcher Bill Chauncey's fly to right.
