Letterman Mike Cartwright, Joe Breck Head Golf Squad Iames Blackis varsity golf team went into action with returning lettermen Mike Cartwright and late- comer Ioe Breck, Filling out the team positions are freshman star Steve Keller and returning sophomore Steve Steppe. The golfers main hope rested on Mike Cartwright who sports a respectable 77 average for the season. Second in line is cage star Joe Breck who came out a month late. This year's team had the disadvantage of having to share the Municipal Golf Course at Randolph Park with rivals Rincon and Palo Verde. Coach Iames Black predicts a stronger team for next year with a higher percentage of returnees and better frosh help.

Catalina's Student Body Stars in Intramural Program This year Catalina successfully initiated an intra- mural sports program under the guidance of Richard Schmieder, world geography teacher at Catalina. The activities started at 9 in the morning and ended at noon on Saturdays. Ten of the events Were: flag foot- ball, basketball, softball, wrestling, Weightlifting, swimming, tennis, volleyball, ping pong, and bowling. Any member of the student body could have taken part in the intramural program except boys who had received varsity letters in that particular sport. As Mr. Schmieder stated, The response of the student body as they heard of the intramurals was very encouraging, and we hope for even more participation next yearf, Seniors won the trophy for class relays and the frosh won the tug of War. Intramural events are going to be held annually with a traveling trophy presented to the class with the most points at the end of the pro- gram. At the bowling tournament in january fourteen different trophies were awarded. Some were given just for fun such as the one for the lowest score or best form.

Frosh Matmen Improve as '62-'63 Season Progresses Freshman Wrestling started out slowly at first and then, as the season neared its close, they came on strong to down Benson, Amphitheater, and Salpointe. The teams main function is to provide future varsity Wrestling material. Varsity wrestling coach, Jack Se- gurson, explained that the frosh are taught the basic tactics that will eventually develop them into top Wrestlers. Freshman coach, Iohn Griste, started out the sea- son with over fifty boys, most of Whom came from freshman football. Though badly beaten in their first three matches, they came back to defeat Benson with Rick Cline, Moe Rowland, and Mike Rubiner sweep- ing the lower Weight classes. Still fresh from the Ben- son meet, the frosh matmen took Amphi, copping seven pins. Jack Segurson, varsity coach, states that all are top varsity and junior varsity prospects. l SCOREBOARD Catalina Onent Dec. 15 10 Pueblo OPP 50 jan. 5 3 Tucson 44 Jan. 12 12 Pueblo 32 Ian. 18 37 Benson 15 1 jan. 19 43 Amphitheater 11 1 jan. 26 28 Palo Verde 31 , Feb. 2 32 Salpointe 23 2 T.H.S. football line coach, Ted Bailey, watches Trojan Steve Mathie on a take down during a regular meet.

GYMNASTICS TEAM-jeff Bennon, Bob Shirk, Gene Voorhees, john Voss, Barry Headricks, Steffan Monk. Gymnasts Prepared for Another Winning Season Senior gymnast john Voss, does a dislocate shoot in the Catalina High School gym during after school practice. VVorking nearly four hours a day gymnasts hope to uphold their title as last year's state champions. Catalina's gymnasts have two returning lettermen, john Voss and Steffan Monk. As compared to only three men on the varsity team last year, there are five for the 1963 season -Iohn Voss, Steffan Monk, Jeff Bennon, Bob Shirk, and Gene Voorhees. Coach Rittenhouse states that the Trojan Gymnasts have good depth this year and plenty of experience. The Blue and White team is the only one this year, as well as last, that will compete olympic style. Olympic style gymnastics consists of having every man on the team compete in all of the eight events. This type of performing causes the men on the team to be weak in the still rings as they don't work out on the rings long enough to strengthen their arms. The rope climb, an event in the past, was omitted in '63. Catalinais senior men have worked many new move- ments into their routines. The meet with Phoenix Union, Catalina's only loss out of seven victories in 1962, will probably be Cata- lina,s toughest opponent in '63, Coach Rittenhouse claims another state championship is within sight.
