...tallies and held the Crimson scoreless for two innings. Meanwhile, in the fourth, Springfield collected its single score of the game. Crawley, who was to supplant Gates in the box before the game was over, drove a two-base hit to left field.

Slayton will be at first as he was in the Andover game, with Daeey, Keene and Roland completing the infield. Captain Amsden, Bennett and Allen will patrol the outfield...
