TODD CARRIES OFF BASEBALL TROPHY

Both Winners Were Outfielders on Last Year's Team--Gordon-Scored 25 Runs During Season

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

At a meeting of the Baseball Advisory Committee, held at the Harvard Club last night, it was announced that Charles Lee Todd Jr. '26 of South Lincoln, Massachusetts, had been awarded the Wendell Bat Baseball Trophy and Lewis Gordon '24 of Gloucester, Massachusetts, had been awarded the Wingate Cup.

The Barrett Wendell Jr. Bat is annually awarded to the baseball player of the University who has the highest record on four counts. Todd won the first count with a batting average of .358. On the second count of number of runs scored Todd came in second with 19 runs, against Gordon's 25. On the third count of number of bases stolen Todd won with 9 to Gordon's 5. On the fourth count of number of sacrifice hits Todd was a poor second with 1, F. S. Hill '24, winning with 5.

Gordon won the Dana P. J. Wingate Cup on all around excellence.

Formal Presentation Later

The two players will not be formally presented with the trophies until the first winter practice of the baseball squad. They will hold them for a year.

Both prize winners played in the field last year, Todd playing in left field and Gordon in right. Todd not only was the most consistent hitter on the team but was also one of the hardest, hitting a great many home runs during the season.
