gggrung, La' v , ' IRVING SKETCH BOOK W- 'B -1-ff -as e new material assures us of a well balanced nine. Under the tutelage of Coach Chown ,a prosperous season looms on the horizon. This year, as it was last year, the pitching has been done by Ryder who possesses all the qualities that make a fine twirler. For relief We have Niven and Klein. The keystone position of the team is ably held down by Duke Park- hurst who has as an understudy Backus, of the Lower School. The catch- er has an important job and this year it seems to be well applied for. At first base we have again one of last year's stars, Charly Niven, a southpaw with an accurate peg. Bill Boland is back again to give Cy a taste of keen competition. Bill is a remarkable hitter and possesses a true baseball head. Second base, shortstop, and third base will, without a doubt be divid- ed between Avignone, Klein, and Austin. The outfield positions are subject to the hottest of competition, Deis- roth, Richards, Pino, Sumner, and several others are fighting hard for varsity positions. Coach Chown has remarkable facilities for instructing men in the fine points of the game. Under his supervision a winning team should be developed. An interesting schedule has been arranged by Manager David Jones, including games with Concordia, Storm King, Poly Prep of Brooklyn, Horrace Mann, and Peekskill Military Academy.

Baseball is one of the chief sports at Irving. Already signs of ac- tion have been seen on the diamond. The commencement of baseball means a great deal to usg it means the starting of another big sport and also brings to bear on our memories the fact that June and graduation are almost upon us. We look forward to baseball for these two reasons and rejoice when it arrives. Most of the material this spring is new. This makes it hard to judge accurately the boys best suited for berths on the varsity. Under the leadership of Carl Avignone, however, we can look forward to a good season. There are four letter-men of last year's team back, Captain Avignone, Niven, Ryder, and Austin. This alone is encouraging and the wealth of L ., ,, .Q?':7 f K W4 , , It V Page ninety the ee
