aware College spring athletic events,
which ended with the Haverford base
ball game this week was not the sue
cess that was anticipated Probably
the greatest disappointment was in
baseball. The prospects looked ex-
cellent on paper before the schedule
started but a late. cold and rainy
spring made it necessary for the team
TO OPEN the season with practically no
practice. The result OF this was that
the pitchers failed TO get in shape
until near the close of the season
and the team lacked batting strength.
Consequently more than majority Of
the games were lost. The great vic
tory-over Haverford in the final game
of the schedule partly made up for
some OF the other defeats. Il was not
until the Haverford game that Hoch
started TO show anything like 1915
form.
