THE BASEBALL SEASON The most remarkable news about this year's ball club was the improvement it made. With only five returning lettermen, and the rest of the team consisting of seven boys recruited from the lower team and two New Boys, the team was green. The first five games of the season were lost by rather decisive margins, but the team did not give up and they did learn to play baseball. The next two games were lost by only one point, while the two following games were won. Any club that can take the lickings at the beginning of the season that this team did and then come through with a strong finish, defeating some of the very teams that it had lost to so badly before, merits no- thing but the highest praise. The Fathers' Weekend 4-3 victory over Canterbury was the most exciting game of the season. john Farr led off the fourth inning with a double and scored the first run of the game on 'Mouse' Tulloch's single to left field. Canterbury picked up three runs leaving South Kent be- hind 3-1 at the close.of the seventh inning. john Farr began the Cardinal and Black's rally in the eighth with a single to centerfield. Tulloch sacrificed to advance Farr to second. Pete Richmond hit to the shortstop, who threw to THE BASEBALL RESULTS third to put out the sliding Farr.
