SYRACUSE TEAMS
SUCCESSF I'LL TRIP
Is One of the Hardest Hit
ting College Mines
in East.

The Syracuse baseball team, which has
just concluded g most successful South
ern trip, is one of the strongest aggre-
cations seen in this section this season.
This team among others has defeated
George Washington twice. Annapolis
once, and with any kind OF luck would
have defeated the strong Georgetown
nine in the recent game which terminal
ed IN the close score Of TO I.
There are seven good left-hand bat
tiers on the team-Ryan, center field:
Walker, second base; Van Arnan, first
right field; Stein, and Mack, pitchers.
Mack is their star pitcher and would
have won his game from Georgetown
but for the fact that Syracuse was also
up against a souttpaw named Deviue.
and the Syracuse batsers could not touch
him, as he was tie first left-handed
pitcher TO face them this season
The team is also fast on the bases. and
with a professional coach would be a
big factor in the intercollegiate race
this season. Many who have seen the
team work express the opinion that the
team hits as well as Princeton, which
made such a favorable impression in the
South this spring.
IN team had no real work on ac-
count Of the cold weather in New York
State until II struck Virginia There
is an abundance Of good material, and
among others three or four good pitch
ers and two good catchers. Sullivan, a
good batter, usually catches Mack, the
star pitcher, and Dollard catches Stein
or Witcher at other times. and Mack is
used in the outneld on account Of his
hitting ability. Van Arnan, the big
first baseman, is one Of the largest men
in baseball today. He is q great kicker
and was benched the other day for
talking back to Umpire Belts in the
Georgetown game.
The graduate coaching system was in
troduced this year, and the students
and followers of the team are looking
forward with interest TO the result Of
the new venture.
