TRINITY WIN
Crosby Grad Drives in
Runs as Princeton
Loses ia

Princeton, N. j., April 3-Putting
on an all out display Of their talent
behind the amazing pitching Of
chunky Frank Steers, the Trinity
College baseball team made It's brief
spring trip a $3.50 proposition by
rebounding from its Rutgers show
ing to pin a IA defeat on the
Princeton Tigers, Ivy League champs
at University Field here yesterday.
The Hilltoppers turned savage
sluggers, putting on a 13-hit attack
against the cream of the Princeton
pitching staff, including Roy Tai
colt of West Hartford, who was
charged with the defeat, his first
in intercollegiate competition. He
hurled IL wins in a row as a soph-
omore last year.
Meanwhile Trinity's unheralded
Steers, last minute pitching choice
Of Coach Dan jesse, was going the
whole route for the winners in re-
markable style. He limited the
Tiger sluggers to eight hits and was
seldom in trouble.
Trinity got off to an early lead
against Talcott in the second on
Charley Fosters two run single and
was never headed. Then continuing
their attack against Johnny Eide
and George Palmer, the Blue and
Gold gave Steers a comfortable lead
to work with, SO that Princeton's
three run rally in the ninth was OF
little consequence.
Trinity also fielded brilliantly be-
hind Steers. Standout were short
stop Joe Beidler and first sacker
Bob Madame.
Sophomores Al Dubovick and
Charley Foster led the attack with
three hits each.

The meeting at Panama which started Sept. g, 1889, and continued until Oct. 8. has became historic as the initial application in inter- American relations of the procedure of consultation. Since then a second meeting of consultation was held at Havana, Cuba, in July, 194O, and a third at Rio de Janeiro in Jan. 1942.
 The foresight of delegates to the special Inter- American Conference for the Maintenance of Peace, held in Buenos Aires in Dec. 1886, and to the Eighth International Confer erlce of American States held at Lima in Dec. 1888, was responsible for setting up the system of consult tation.
