The frosh have had just nine' days of practice this spring. three, of them since last Saturday wheni :the scheduled opener with Beh-! rend Center was washed out. Nine days of practice isn't much time to develop a baseball team,' and Lion coach Bill Spieth views this opener with apprehension,t -especially since belies a corps of! untested hurlers. "We'll probably use several pitchers to see just what we've' got," Spicth said. "We haven't had, enough practice to really have a good idea of where we're headed." . Spieth indicated that the starting nod would go"to -either Joel Mel-. ville of Saegertown or Jun Bailey of Pleasantville. The Lion coach named a tive lineup of Fred Swope, first; base; Dave Byrard, second base;' Dave Felak, shortstop; John Har vey, third bane; Jim Kroemer, leftfield; Paul Rhodes, centerfield; Joe 'Simonelli, rightfseld; John' Gregory, catcher, and Melville or Bailey. Of the hitters, Spieth rates Swope, Fekik 'and Gregory high. "Swope's been hitting the ball! pretty well," he said. "but will it continue? Felak and Gregory have all been hitting hard in practice, but that is only practice.' Although the team now stands as little more than a bi g ; question mark, Spieth feels confident that if the Lions lose, it won't be be cause of a faulty defense.
