...infield is well established, though only showing polish around second base. George Harrington at second and Levon Kasarjian at short clicked against M.I.T. with two double plays. Harrington, at second, has fielded well and has a strong arm, but lacks power. At short, Kasarjian, acting-captain in the first game, fields well but rarely gets long hits. Kasarjian last year led the Newton High team and his fielding won him a place on the all-scholastic team...

Lee McTurnan in left can also play in the infield. Slovin and Peter Rayel, two fair long ball hitters, make up the rest of the outfield squad...

Acting-Captain Leon Kasarjian, the short-stop, knocked in two runs with a double with men on first and third and started two twin killings. The first run of the game came after two successive M.I.T. errors...
