Harriers Compile Impressive Record During the fall months, Kimball students noticed a handful of boys in sweat suits faithfully doing calisthenics led by captain Morris Emigh. This group was the Kimball High harriers who, for the second straight year, compiled an impressive record under coach Jim Glick, whose first year of coaching was quite successful. Kimball's cross country team won eight out of ten meets. The scores were: Dondero, 15-50, Hazel Park, 26-30, Mt. Clemens, 21-40, Port Huron, 21-38, Ferndale, 18-43, Claw- son, 22-1X2-34-1!2, Birmingham, 37-21. In addition to this fine record, Kimball finished second in the Eastern Michi- gan League meet and fifth in the regionals. Senior varsity letter winners included Jim Carr, Bill Dallavo, Morris Emigh, John Kreag and Dave Reed. Stand- outs were Morris Emigh who placed twelfth in the state regionals and forty-third in the state finals, and Bill Dallavo who placed first in the state regionals and twentieth in the state finals. Bill Dallavo, who was undefeated in eight races, broke the record set by Tom Harris with a 10,131.5 clocking. Junior Chuck Armstrong and sophomore Bob Currie, also varsity letterwinners, will form the basis for next year's team.

At times he must be hard and solid while at other times he must be kind and sympathetic. There is also a time for sorrow and remorse, just as there is a time for the gladness of having a winning team. Royal Oak Kimball's head football coach is the possessor of these various traits which constitute the making of a very fine coach. The first picture shows Ryan in a quizzical mood as he is talking with assistant coach, Dick Zulch. It seems as though he is asking, Who missed that pass? The second picture shows Mr. Ryan in a state of meditation, as it he is contemplating his next move. The next view depicts the enthusiasm that the coach develops during the game. In the last picture, the game is won, and he can finally relax and say, Good job. Mike Omalev and Dean Flippo exchange greetings with Mark Hector and Don Fuhrman before the game began. The atmosphere became less cordial, however, as the game progressed. i 1 .1 In 15-Ji., j ' . , -eff f of gif oft A tense moment is reached in the game as Kimbc1ll's Gary Wirth stretches to grab a pass.

After a fine season for a second year' sport the Kimball wrestling team ended its second sea- son with a record of ten wins and only two losses. Throughout the season, the wrestlers were con- ditioning for their toughest match, Hazel Park. The extra effort paid off well, as the Knights downed the Vikings in one of the season's most thrilling meets. The grapplers also maintained their supremacy over Dondero, Fitzgerald, East Detroit, Southfield, Pontiac Northern, Pontiac Central, Farmington, Berkley, and Hazel Park, but lost to Ann Arbor and Port Huron. Still the Knights tied for the Eastern Michigan League championship despite these defeats. ln the regional tournament the wrestlers took third place. John Kreag, Paul Shortt, Butch Harris, Bob Dillon, Dave Brazier, Frank Voeffray, and Don Johnson qualified for the state tournament in which our matmen captured fourteenth place.
