In the only tilt of the present season, the Orange swamped Boston college, 18-11, in a deluge of extra base hits. Stevens, sophomore shortstop, proved the offensive star of the game when he garnered a homer,1 a triple, and three singles off the7 various Boston pitchers in his five} trips to the plate. Stoneberg, soph-; omoreleft fielder, contributed at homer and a triple to account for i two more of the 20 Orange hits. Syracuse' greatest weakness ap- peared to be in the hurling depart- ment, the Orange pitchers allowing' Boston 11 runs.
