...Crimson has been strengthened by several talented sophomores. With the graduation of team captain Tom Bilodeau, the varsity was left with a gap at shortstop. But sophomore Jeff Grate has played good ball at short and seems to have the job nailed down...

They bungle the job, but meanwhile abandon themselves to a couple of amusing Godardian escapades-taking over a cafe with an impudent little dance of alienation, romping through the Louvre...
