Beeman placed second in the conference meet. During the season the team played twelve games, winning six and losing six. The regulars were Frank Calpeno, Robert Newhart, Miles Klein, Wil- liam Ebert, Vincent Kostella, John Vogler, and Robert Kraemer. Some of these boys improved greatly during the year and by the end of the season they were shooting down in the seventies and eighties. Besides the regulars there were many younger boys who played consistently and developed considerably. Among these Rich- ard Holt and Richard Ebert were considered good material for 1933.
