In the early part of March at a meeting called for the purpose of electing a manager of the baseball team, Howard E. Mather was unanimously re-elected to that position. When the hearty support of the school was assured the team again entered the Orange County Inter-School League and at the present writing stand a most excellent chance of winning the County Championship. The first game of the season was played at Warwick and was one of the most exciting games played this season, being barely won in the ninth inning. Score 6-5. Our next victory was over Mid-dletov n and proved an .easy one, giving G. H. S. the victory by a score of 12-3. Then Walden fell to our boys in a double-header. Florida withdrew from the League leaving the field to Goshen by two forfeitures. Then came the fatal trip to Otis-ville and a reversal of the score against G. H. S. for the first time in the season. G. II. S. defeated Middletown High three games out of a series of five. In the two finals of the series they scored shut-outs against the veteran warriors of the M. II. S. Score 2-0 and 7-0. The line-up of the team is as follows: Raymond Richner, catcher. Scott Osborn, pitcher. Lester Roosa, 1st base. Fred Clayton, 2d base. Murray Thompson, shortstop. Harry Lewis, 3d base. Robert McCormick, right field. Millard Strack, center field. Jacob Roosa, left field. Maurice O’Connell, sub. It is fitting to here express our word of appreciation to those who served so faithfully on the team, and to state that “ team work” has been the secret of our success. H. E. M., ’15.

THE PIONEER 23 ATHLETICS The High Athletic Association. The High School Athletic Association has been organized for three years, and has charge of all athletic activities. As a result of the election held last fall the following officers were elected: President—Scott Osborne. Vice-President—Harold Houston. Secretary-—Fi anklin Schriver. Treasurer—Miss Scott. Tennis. Tennis has proved to be more successful and has aroused more enthusiasm among the students of the High School than any other sport. As soon as the school was running smoothly after the opening of the fall term, tennis became very popular. Early in October a tournament was arranged with Warwick. The first series w-as played in Warwick. The second w-as played in Goshen. The Goshen team won three out of live matches played in each series. Later in the month, w-e played the Monroe High School. Of the ten games of this tournament, G. H. S. won nine. Probably the biggest event in tennis was the Phillips’ tournament. This tournament was played among the students of the H. S. for trophies donated by Mr. J. S. Phillips. Tn the finals of this tournament Margaret Phillips defeated Elizabeth Phillips, and Edwin Marston defeated Harry Marston, thereby proving themselves to be the best players in the High School. The tennis team is very much indebted for the success of the season to Dr. Sewaid and Mr. J. S. Phillips, who very generously granted us the privilege of using their excellent courts for the series plaved in Goshen. A. V. D. W., ’15. Members of the High School Tennis Team: Ed. Marston, Captain A. VanDuzer Wallace, Mgr. M. Phillips Ellen Coates Elizabeth Phillips Janet Coates H. France H. Marston Lucy Wallace Track Meet. In the early spring several of the enthusiastic athletes began to train faithfully and at the County Meet were amply paid for their trouble.
