Baseball Varsity Routs Brandeis 20-8, With Strong 20-Hit Attack

Generally when a college baseball team plays a game rumor has it that the little man behind the screen in the brown felt hat is a professional scout, but in Wal-tham yesterday afternoon it was different.

The varsity, on the other hand, got to the Brandeis pitchers in the second and stayed next to them. Bob Hastings led of
