Last spring the Little Raiders, led by Harry Barouth's exceptional hilting and Joe Passabet's pitching, swept through a difficult sched– ule to become the mythical upstate champions. Behind the combined pitching of Hub Stevenson and Joe PassabeL, the Green-lidders easily downed Bucknell Jr. College in the operung game 13-1. Harry Barouth was the big gun of the attack with two hits that started a remarkable streak. The stocky slugger did not fail to get at least one hit in every game of the season. Svracuse lost two to the ~1aroon in a home and home seri~s with the 1anlius game sandwiched in between. Passabet ·won both the games with the Orange with plenty of support from his hardhitting ma{es. Barouth, Swartz and the man behind the mask, Ed Van Loan, all got a total of five hits in the two games. The first game was won by a 21-3 score and the second played at yracuse was a little clo er, but ended 10 to 6. With the ba es loaded and two out in the ninth, Syracuse Frosh lost their chance to tie up the game when the man on third was tagged out. olgatc olgate Colgate Colgate Colgate Colgate Colgate Colgate Colgate BASEBALL ]3 13 lfi 13 2 21 ll 10 7 U i."v\ARY Buclmell Jr. College Cazenovia Seminary Cornell Cornell Penn State Syracuse Frosh Manlius S racuse Frosh Gloversville High 1 6 3 6 1 3 5 6 6 RoBEin W.
