After the Southern trip where Coach Mitchell's charges walloped the ball at a fast clip in the face of ragged early-season hurling, the team has slowed down and batting averages have gradually fallen to their present position...

Harvard jumped them at the start and drew away easily at a 30 stroke-per- minute clip, with their rivals trailing at a-28, until there were two lengths of open water between the boats at the Harvard Bridge.
