Moundsmen snare '55 Suburban II Title This year Nlr. Dale Smith's baseball nine opens defense of its Suburban II League title. XVith Yeadon and Upper Nlerion as probably the strongest contenders, the Lords will field a well-balanced team including tive of last yearis lettermen. Co-captains lien Rishel and Bill Dickson hold down third base and center field positions re- spectively. Popular Bill, selected to last year's all-league team, will lead the hitting attack. Letterwinners Dick Alden and Chip Hocking again are the keystone combination, while slug- ging Bob l,aRouche and basketball star Walt hlctiowan vie for the open job guarding the initial sack. Baclung up the first string infield are Barry Lower, Fred Colella, and Don Bam- tord. Dean Seltzer, Leon Evans, Don Good, and Bob Keller provide good depth to roam the outer pastures with Dickson. The batteries will probably be Coach Smith's biggest uncertainty. The solution may lie in moundsmen Dave Yvaters, Don Pusey, and Fred Colella, with lim Valentine and sophomore Rocco Varacalli handling the catching chores. This season's enthusiastic squad is certain to be in top contention for the league title. 1055 BASEBALL Upponenl.-' Swure fillfo' Yeadon ......... . . 8 7 l larl my .........
