Take Me Out to the Boll Game x X Athletic Section Take Me Out To The Ball Game is an old refrain heard around Alta a great portion of the year. Competing and train- ing for athletic events is a vital part of every high school student's life. Athletics promote friendly competition along with individual cooperative ability and good sportsmanship. This helps to prepare the student for the competitive world which he will meet after high school graduation.
