It is hoped that the team will sud- denly find itself and live up to its pre-season expectations. The Rockets opened the season by losing 7-2 to a potentially strong Madison nine. Rockaway outhit the Presidents 6-2 but they also out-errored them 6-2. Bob Levey starred with two hits. In the PSAL opener, Newtown came out vic- torious in a game played at Cedarhurst Stadium. The Pioneers tallied all its 3 markers in the third inning while the Sea Horses garnered its tally in the fourth inning. Forest Hills showed that experience means little when it chalked up its first baseball win in the history of the school against the hapless Beachmen. The score was 3-1 with the Red and Blue collecting only two safe blows, one of which was a home run by Sheldon Sakowitz. In a non-league contest, the hitters finally found their batting eye but the pitching collapsed as Lincoln eked out a 12-10 verdict. The Seasiders assumed leads of 3-0, 5-1, and 9-8 but they could not hold the advantage. Herb Mass notched 3 hits, Bob Levey and Ed Donchey getting 2 bingles apiece. :S , Z.. -4 .

Tennis team will undoubtedly improve on the fourth place standing it attained last season Three varsity lettermen remain from the 1945 squad: Sam Linder, Elton Dublin and Morty Janklow. These boys are expected to form the nucleus around which the rest of the team is to work. Linder, who finished the last season in the number two singles position with a won-lost record of 9 and 2, is considered among the steadiest players in Queens scholastic tennis. Many an undefeated star was toppled from these ranks when he met with Linder's steady lob game. He will appear in the number one position this year. al 505 a05 'i5 4 . . 443 Skiltp is lsisfy Although handicapped by the loss of three of its starting players, the tennis i . Q 4' , K 2.

Dublin eapitalizes on a powerful forehand drive to win his points. And win them he did, as exemplified by his 1945 record of 6 won, 5 lost. Morty Janklow, who appeared on the doubles team last season, will start in the number three singles position. Taking advantage of a strong service and steady forehand drive, he is expected by Coach Eileen Devereaux to improve on his record of 6 won, 4 lost. The three other starting members will be chosen from this group of promising players: Bob Messe, Dick Lieb, Dick Joseph, Jay Kissel, Paul Fenichel, and Donald Miller. According to hard-working Coach Devereaux, the tennis team will cut quite a swathe in PSAL tennis during the 1946 season. -Morly Janklow 114' Wu C?
