Row 3 — Kidney, Cornelius, Allen, Woods, Kellum, Ray, Michaelsen, Coach Baird. Building his team around nine returning lettermen, Coach Frank Baird led the 1945 baseball squad through a highly successful season. Max Allen, Dee Baker, Bob Gossman, Bob MacDaniel, Paul McCloud, Kenny Millican, Bob Steinhart, and Dick Woods, all letter winners from last year ' s team, formed the nucleus for one of the best nines ever fielded at Broad Ripple. Along with Dick Miller, Bill Huff, and Jack Legan, the afore-mentioned boys won the City Junior Baseball Class A championship during the summer vaca- tion under the banner of the Broad Ripple Cubs. Rake call was issued as usual before spring vacation and the candidates fell to and cleared the diamond in record time. As the annual staff put the Riparian to bed the Rockets were undefeated with six straight wins. Zionsville fell 6 to 2 in the season ' s opener, and later was downed a second time by the Orange and Black, 10 to 8. The Flashes of Franklin Township were walloped in a double-header, 1 1 to and 5 to 0, and Noblesville received a 9 to 1 drubbing. Bidding for their sixth victory, the nine had a close squeeze, edging out Cathedral, 7 to 6.
