Baseball Our baseball season this fall was inte resting and enjoyable but did not bring in as many victories as we had hoped. Out of the 6 games we played we lost 5 and the other game ended in a tie with Climbing Hill. We started out our season with L. Rose, pitcherg D. Sulsberger, catcherg J. Gallagher, first baseg Ed Weber, second baseg J. Suslberger, third baseg M. Hanner, short stopg P. Hanner, left field: E. Baker, center fieldg and D. Pixler. right field. Our first game was Sept. 16th with Smithland at Holly Springs. The game started slow but Smithland finally began to score to beat us 17 to 1. Then next came the Sectional Tournament Sept. 20th in which we were defeated by Bronson 15 to Z. Our next game Sept. Z3rd, came with Climbing Hill in which we tied them at the end of 10 endings at 17 each. The game was called off because of darkness. Gallagher and Rose traded off pitching and playing first base that day. Next we went to Smithland on Sept. 26th where we 'lost 18 to 10 in an exciting 'extra inning game. On Oct. 7th we went to Salix with out Rose who quit school and moved to Missouri. Gallagher did a good job of pitching by striking out 9 of their players but the game ended with Salix ahead I2 to ll after we had played an extra inning. For our last game we went to Oto and lost 8 to 9 in another extra inning game. When Loran moved to Missouri we changed around some with j. Gallagher, pitcherg M. Hanner, catcherg D. Sulsberger, first baseg B. Hanner short stop, P. Hanner, left fieldg E. Baker, center field and D. Pixler, right field. During the season our pitchers struck out 49 of their ppponent's players while only 30 of our players struck out. Basketball The Holly Springs Basketball teams decided on The Hawks as their name for the season. It seems that the Hawks had an unlucky year and won only l game out of 13. We still have two games and the Section- al Tournament to play. We do hope these last games will be in our favor. Our only victory was when we played Salix over there. Some of these games were very exciting and close, but it seems that our opponents always came out on top. Come on boys--Lets see if we can do better next year! Z
