Liar all Gil wal lil iliillkaliiifi vfiilqfattital lifiwl 'BASEBALL The baseball team started the season in auspicious manner by trounc- ing the strong St. John's Prep of Brooklyn. The De La Salle boys gave evidence of that ability to come from behind which made them feared by all prep and high school teams last year. The score in this particular case was 9 to 4. - The outlook for a promising season is very bright, as the nine regulars of 'last year's Catholic Champions have returned. VVhen Coach Moeschen picked his team for the first game, two veterans had been replaced, joe Lordi the slugging outfielder displacing one, and jimmy Sweeney another. Dan O'Connell our hard hitting first baseman of last year, will be at his old post for the season. Little Jimmy Sweeney, the speed demon, will start at second, johnny McQuade at short, and Dick Duggan, a veteran of three years, at third. Pinkie Mitchell will be in left field, while Captain Clark, the old reliable Dusty , will be in center. Lloyd Stanley, who has twirled some sterling games for Alma Mater in the past is counted on for another good season on the mound. Assisting him will be Geech Markey, a promis- ing newcomer. Gust Caniglia will be in his customary position behind the bat. Howard Banks and Charles Hoctor were welcomed this season as new- comers. Backed with loyal support by the student body, the coach expects to have another banner year recorded in our annals. Coach George Moeschen '20 is a former De La Salle baseball star, who played on the Columbia Varsity for four years, captaining them in his Senior year.
