A HU STLING NINE Baseball is one of our first nationally known sports that has turned tl1e World Topsy-Turvy in its craze to satis- fy the enormous appetite of its public. Time spent on base- ball is not wasted as it builds character, sportsmanship, and co-operation as well as a sound body and a sound mind. Character, in its application of the individual and how he reacts toward othersg sportsmanship, each member sharing with each other its wins or its lossesg and co-operation, the team working as a unit to defeat any opposition-all these characteristics of good baseball make for good citizens and leaders in America. Georges hasn't won many laurels in baseball, but our boys have played the game for its sheer joy. Several found their way into Sandlot Teams and have performed well. The 1950 team is composed of a group of hustlers and it remains for time to tell of their results-champions! minor or major league material! Who knows? .51 :ga s

CAGERS IMPRUV ING ln comparison with the past few years, haskethall at Georges has greatly improved. ,loc Good, former athlete of Duquesne, suc- ceeded ,lohn Rohha as coach after the 1atter resigned. This year the team finished in third place, the highest position a Georges team has occupied for some time. Witll 'the help of two seniors, Tom Marano and Joseph Juriga, two juniors, John ,lacohs and john Barnette, and Rohert Kopetsky, a sophomore, Mr. Good was able to mold a fairly good team. The haskethall team for tho next year holds a promising future, since most of the 1949-50 team was composed of under-class nlen. Witll a little co-operation and hard work from the lroys, and the support of the directors, faculty, students, and fans, coach Good will surely have winning teams in the years 'io follow.
