...until the fifth and seemed to be coasting along under a comfortable lead. He had allowed only four hits and had come through the previous innings in fine fettle but a walk to Batchelder started him off on the wrong foot, and, after Devens went out on an infield play, Bassett got the hit that really began the rally. After that came singles by Nugent and McGrath and then Ticknor sent them all home on a triple to right. Wood followed this up with a homer, the first of two that he garnered, and, after two more singles Batchelder cleaned...
...salary for a young major-leaguer is $5.000. The Yankees are a very highly-paid team. With his $80,000 Babe Ruth gets $5,000 more than the President of the U. S. Lou Gehrig makes about $30,000. Their troubles last year were the left side of the infield, Ruths sickness, Gehrig's hitting slump. They are depending on the batting and fielding of able Left Fielder Dusty Cooke and of Ben Chapman on third. Until the young pitchers show class, much depends on old timers Pennock and Hoyt...

Practice yesterday consisted mainly of batting and infield workouts. The first-string infield that is to start Friday's contest will probably be made up of G. A. Donaldson '31 at first base, E. A. Mays '32 at second, F. E. Nugent '30 shortstop, and H. L. Huxtable '30 at third. The second infield yesterday was composed of W. B. Wood Jr. '32 at the initial sack, J. J. Carver '30 at second base assisted by J. J. O' Neil '30 at shortstop, with E. J. Des Roches '31 covering the hot corner...
