f - -fn ----iw - . . Zaked lain! Straight Caifwfic .feague Crown Under the line coaching of Mr. Harry Marmion, the junior Varsity Basketball team completed a very suc- cessful year, compiling an 18-3 record and winning the Catholic League Championship. The season started off in a most unconvincing manner, when the team could do not better than break even in the first six contests. From this point on, however, the junior Eagles were unable to lose the winning habit. Fifteen teams fell during this span, and included among the victories were those against St. J0hn's and Roosevelt, avenging earlier overtime defeats. The last two triumphs of the season turned out to be the most important. In these contests Gonzaga downed St. John's and John Carroll by identical scores, clinching the Catholic League title. The Freshman Basketball Team coached by Mr. Peter Lerario also had a successful season, even if it was not quite as impressive as the junior Varsity's. The Frosh compiled a fine 17-6 overall record, but only a mediocre 6-5 Catholic League record. Outstanding among the season's accomplishments was the squad's fine showing against older and more experi- enced teams in the Boy's Club Christmas tournament. In this tourney the Frosh won three games before losing by two points to Twin Oaks.

gagfed .Hope to Recapture Catholic .League Crown Once again, Mr. Joe Kozik was at the helm as the Gonzaga baseball squad opened the season. Delayed by a snowy spring, the Eagle nine were hampered in their first few games by a lack of practice. Coach Kozik hoped that Easter workouts would remedy the situation. Un- fortunately the publication date of the Aetonian pre- vents a further recording of the season's progress. Gonzaga lost IHOSE of last year's veterans by graduation and the big question is whether the replacements can adequately fill their places. The team has four solid ballplayers returning from last year's squad. Big Vic Calder, American Legion star during the summer, holds down first base. Alan Campbell, realiable three year veteran, takes command at shortstop again. Speedy Sophomore Jim Holloran covers centeriield, and smooth- swinging Tom Edmonston plays leftfield. In the pitching department Mr. Kozik has a capable group with which to work. Back from last year's team are Frank Bartos, Jack McGann, Mike Marchetti and Tom O'Malley. Edmonston figures to help with the pitching also. The coach has a freshman find in Bill Danneman, a promising fastballer. Regardless of what their final record may be, this year's squad promises to be another hustling Gonzaga team. Mr. J. Kozik, Athletic Director and Baseball Coach BASEBALL TEAM: Ist row: W. Danneman, J. Holloran, W. Fallon, H. Partridge, E. Cotter, T. Edmonston, T. O'Malley, C. Barker, V. Calder. 2nd row:' Coach J. Kozik, K. Litkowski QManagerj, R. Grau, F. Bartos, J. McGann, C.
