New Hampshire Freshmen Beat Yardling Nine, 8 to 5

Four runs in the ninth inning gave the New Hampshire freshmen an 8-5 victory over the Yardling baseball team yesterday in the season's opener for both teams.

Shortstop Tom Bergantino and third baseman Stu Levine led the Crimson attack as each banged out two hits in four trips to the plate. Infield play was always steady, and the Yardlings collected eight safeties, but as coach Adolph W. Samborski predicted, pitching proved to be their weakness.
