DAN'S Siena's Varsity basketball team undertakes a tough schedule in the FOR THE FOREMOST IN next week—playing six games in nine days, starting with RPI in Troy. One successful move by Coach Frank Renzi was the addition of centerfielder Glenn Bissell to the pitching staff. Glenn chucked against Springfield College in a losing game, but pitched a notable game except FORMAL for one irming. Bissell will probably see plenty of action on the mound. He is fast and would be very good in relief, besides starting. Although Ed Buscemi is far from being a fast man on the base paths he deserves a pat on the back for his showings in the games this season. WEAR Ed has been aggressive on the paths and has been digging all the time. Coach Renzi gave the old "Leo Durocher treatment" to the umpire in the Springfield game.

Charlie Northrup is set with a good job this simamer. He is now employed by the Sha-Wan-Ga Lodge in Tropical Worsted High View, N. Y.
