Hitting Pa Dirt Football is generally regarded as the number one sport at East High. However, large turn- outs greeted the winter sports, wrestling and basketball, and the spring teams. Dave Natvig's grapplers gave their best performance in recent years, notching the run- ner-up spot in the state tourney. Wes Sterner and Stan Davis were crowned state champions while honorary captain Bill Wilcox and Bill Butcher came in second. Sparked by a high-scoring iunior, Jack Rolinger, and honorary captain Bob Surface, the baslcetballers won seven games for Tom Lind, three more than in the previous year. These included a stirring 37-32 win over West. Such outstanding athletes as Joe Matous, rated one of the state's best all-around pitch- ers, and Stan Higdon, a top-notch hurdle , bolstered the consistently good baseball and track squads.
