HERST FRESHMEN, SCORE II TOT.

Annual Spring Regatta May 16 at Lake
mis- Tournament - Game Postponed
Other Items.
Amherst freshmen played the worst
game ever seen on Pratt Field, Am
herst, yesterday, and We're defeated
by Yale freshmen II to /. Every Am
herst player except the right field, who
had no chances, made miserable errors.
Yale played magnificent, errorless
game, the battery work of Hecker
brothers, Captain Davis at second and
Hamlin at third being most worthy of
mention. Hecker struck out twelve
men. Amherst would have been shut
out except for Brotch, Yale's short
stop, attempting to trap an infield fly
in the last inning. Brotch became rat
tied, and Boyden, who was the only
Amherst runner to reach third, came
home. Two pretty double plays by Mil
Ter were the only redeeming features of
Amherst's work. Score:
