HONOR RONALD RAMSEYER. Ronny, a freshman, showed great courage and stamina both as an athlete and a sportsman in placing fifth in the 103 pound Class in the State tournament. He had to wrestle three times with 14 hours, and two of these matches went into overtime periods. Ronny indeed demonstrated great courage as a freshman and displayed terrific potentiality for the coming years. He received a varsity letter for his achieve- ment. BOB HUBBARD. Bob, a sophomore, began wrest- ling two years ago as a freshman and quickly gained reputation as a go-er. Bob demonstrated this by placing fourth in the l27 pound class in the state tournament. He won over boys who easily defeated him during the regular season. Bob has great potentiality and will be expected to lead the wrestlers in next year's tournament. Bob gained a varsity letter for his fine effort. W V ies, JACK ECHOLS. Jack, a senior, captained this year's wrestling squad and gained recognition by compiling a massive 31 points for high point honors. For this achievement, he was awarded a trophy for outstanding effort over the season. Jack is a two-year letterman in wrestling and gained a varsity letter in football his senior year. -'I64--

THIS YEAR'S GOLF TEAM consisted of boys who for three years had played together. Because of their association, Coach Peter Frajola feels that this year the team should make its best showing. The team is primarily made up of seniors. THE SEASON OPENED fast on a schedule of T3 matches including the Biltmore Invitational May 4, and the State Tournament in Tucson May lO-ll. Wicken- burg was the first team faced, and with devastating mid-season form, the Spartan squad crushed the Wranglers T5-O. Phoenix Union fell next to the ram- paging golfers 1215-215. After two quick wins, Cam- elback's hopes soared as to the extent of the success of the season. Then a loss to Scottsdale 8-7, befell the Spartan crew. Mesa, one of the best teams in the state, unleashed a terrible fury and mashed the hapless Helot crew l3-2 at Mesa two days later. North, like- wise on the same par with the Jackrabbits of Mesa, sent the Camelback squad down to defeat l3lQ-l MJ. THE GOLFERS ROMPED on through their season unreported-on due to the Shield's deadline. At that point in the season, a 2-3 record had been compiled. Coach Fraiola said, We can play anyone but Mesa and North, and usually beat them. But those two, we can't ever knock off. THE SEASON SHOWED great potentiality for the Spartan golfers, and the team proved a credit to the school. Camelback hails the lads who represent the Blue-and-Orange on the fairways. Good Luck Next Season! Left to right: Coach Peter Fraiola, Bill Schmuhl, Jerry Schmuhl, Tom Risk, Bob Teller Clayton Boyer, Dave Hartter, Corky Stahlberg, Paul Spence. GOLF TEAM 163 -

PAGE RON PHIFER. Ron, a senior, was accorded various honors in both football and basketball. He was voted outstanding athlete by the Dad's Club for his hustle on the gridiron and was awarded this trophy. In basketball, he was chosen to the second teams all-city and Class AA Central all-star quint. A berth on the all-tournament first team climaxed Ron's senior year of athletics. He is a varsity letterman in football and basketball three years standing. BOB MCCORMICK Bob, a senior, was chosen to a first team berth on the Class AA football squad by the Valley Coaches' Association. Although a halfback during the regular season, Bob was placed at fullback on the all-state team. No doubt this switch was due to his potentiality as a bread-and-butter ball player. Bob is a four year letterman in football and track while gaining a major letter in basketball his freshman year. BILL SCHMUHL. Bill, a senior, is probably the most honored basketball athlete this school has known in its short history. He was voted outstanding basketball player for the season and was presented this trophy for his achievements. Bill was placed on the all-city second team, as well as first team berths on the all-central team and all-tournament team. Bill has lettered four years in succession in basketball while picking up maior letters in football, baseball, and golf throughout his high school career. -165-
