Case Led Rutgers to Title.
Case. a popular figure when he
roamed the outfield for the Mats,
would like nothing better than
make a clean sweep of his three
games here. He took oyer as
coach at Rutgers last year, and
led it to the NCAA District 2
championship.
Maryland, under Coach Burt
Shipley for the Both season, will
have to halt Outfielder Ray Van
Cleef, Rutgers top hitter last year
who was named the outstanding
player in the college World
Series" at Omaha.
Case also has back from last
years team Pitcher Tom Foster,
an eight-game winner, and Out
fielder Jimmy (Mo) Monahan,
who hit near 400.
The Terps. who finished second
to Wake Forest in the Southern
Conference race last year, have
four returning pitchers in Nick
PAMELA. Don Wagner. Don Solder
fielder Dick Graham, a 1922 hitter.
Judge Has Good Pitcher Crop. b
Coach Joe Judge, who also
played f1rst-class brand of base
ball for the Mats, has a good crop
of pitchers on hand for George
towns opener against Fordham.
Hurlers back from last year in
clude Southpaws Dick Diebold,
Hugh Murphy, DOC" Dougherty
and Righthanders Frank Mat
tingly and Bob McNabb. Return
Ing outfielders are Tommy Hardi-
man and George Hughes, while
lettermen infielders are Steve
korfonta and Bob Walls.
Bill Reinhart, CIV coach, is
faced with pitching staff that is
all right-handed. The teams
only left-hander is First Baseman
Lou Ciarocca. The pitching staff
lists Tim Shank, tops in that de-
partment last year; Joe Kenelly,
Ed Hughes, Kenny Kern, Pete
Cerrick, Bill Brown and George
Sengstack, an All-High pitcher
with Anacostia two years ago.
Entire OutfieId Lost.
Reinhart lost his entire outfield
from last season, but Pete Cordelli,
Bino Barriera and Bill Szanyii
seem to be filling in adequately.
Reinhart's big problem has been
getting his team together for
practice. Most of the squad also
plays football and has been en-
gagged in spring grid sessions.

season Thursday in a game against
