G uard Substitutes and second team: Catherine Hall, Clara Hawk, Helen Lake, Dorothy Hattendorf, Ruth Davis. Good team work was the outstanding feature of the work of the 1925-1926 season. In game after game, the girls showed the hard practice and good coaching. Five years of playing together h the girls' team during skill that comes from as its results, toog for outside of the side-center, all the regular team members had been out for basketball since the eighth grade. Especial credit should be given Gertrude Fouts, better known as 'Poutsie , who as captain was always cheerful, tactful, and efficient: and who as guard, was one of the snappiest, quickest players seen in many a day. Grace Chapman acted as manager of the team, and Miss Hardin as chaperone. Alberta Laufer, the steady side-center of this year's team, steps into the captain's shoes next year.

Sadosky All-around athletes are the rule rather than the exception at Euclid Central, as is shown by the fact that the entire basketball team had made enviable reputations for themselves during the football season. Scarcely had the Rocky River mud dried on the football suits, before the boys donned basketball outfits and plunged headlong into a successful cage season. The boys played steadily and consistently this year. They won ten out of thirteen games, maintained second place in the Greater Cleveland Conference, and acquitted them- selves splendidly in the Berea tournament, staying in through the third round, when they were eliminated by their old rivals, Rocky River. john Korencic was given a position as rear guard on the Greater Cleveland Con- ference mythical team, while Paul Kurtz was given honorable mention as center. Only two regulars, Hattendorf and Kurtz, will be lost by graduation, so Euclid fans can look forward to a successful 1927 season under the leadership of John Korencic, captain-elect.

THE BUZZER 1926 TRACK-1925 The first annual Greater Cleveland Conference track meet was held at Shaker Heights field in May, 1925. All G. C. C. teams had representatives present. It being Euclid's first attempt at track, there were not many out. Some honor was earned, however, by Bernard Sadosky, who took second place in the pole vault, clearing the bar at ten feet, two inches. Virgil Camm, while not winning any honors, did fine work in the broad jump and 220-dash. Sadosky and Camm are promising material for the 1926 meets. The freshman relay team, which was composed of Henry Powers, Bernard Sadosky, Rocco Vinciquerra and Maurice Berg, came out third. Many more fellows are expected out this spring.

The boys held their own during the 1925 season, except, perhaps, in the University school game. Only five games were played. New equipment and suits have been ordered for the 1926 season. Paul Kurtz is captain, and a number of new men are reasonably sure of positions on the line-up.
