FHOSH READY FOR CLASH WITH ROOK NINE TOMORROW Pitching Staff Prepared T o Baffle Aggies; Real Fracas Expected The frosh baseball team Is fit and primed for the mix with Aggie rooks in Eugene next Friday, and Dick Nelson, coach, is working the men every night. The Eugene high school provided recreation for the frosh last night, and they simply ran away from the high schoolers. Sport followers are looking to the frosh for an excel lent team this season. The pitching staff seems to be one of the strongest departments of the team. Rollo Gray, former Jefferson high school mound artist, Is show ing up as a bright light. Gray is using his head in good shape, and works the corners to ad vantage. Pitchers are Plentiful. “Duckie” Holmes has been work ing as pitcher, and will probably be one of the dependable. Holme’s long suit is control. Ford and Hewitt have also been doing considerable mound work. Ford has a slow ball that ought to fool the rooks. Hewitt shows good promise and ought to develop with experience. The probable lineup for the Fri day’s clash follows: Bruhn, first base; Base, second base; Jacobberger, shortstop; Svar verul, third base; Zimmerman, Me entee, Alexander, King, outfield; “Doc” Furry, Manerud, Shields, catchers. The lineup Is only tenta tive and may be changed before the game. Equipment is Needed. Tho fresh team 1b fast developing Into a fast, snappy machine, under the direction of Dick NelBon. Nel son has been working his new men overtime getting them into condi tion. TTie frosli are said to be han dicapped hy the lack of equipment. The partial hatting order, that may be used Friday is: Alexander, Jac obberger, Base, McEntee, Svarverud. Bruhn, Zimmerman, catcher, pitcher. Word lias sifted in from Corvallis that the rooks have a formidable nine. Huglile McKenna, the diinuni tive Portland athlete, is said to be working wonders on the diamond. The rooks also have a pitcher that is supposed to hold the varsity team to no hits. The game with the frosli will not ho a walk away for either nine, and should be a worth while contest. Return Game Scheduled. A return game will lie played by the I'rosh in Corvallis on May 8, the O. A. C. Junior week-end. Mana ger McClain is trying to schedule 4 game with the winners of the Port land interscholastic league. Anoth er trip will probably ho arranged, but the toum has not been announc ed.
