Peoria Owlets Play Well During the basketball season, the Owlets gained much experience and chaiked up a good record-nine wins and eleven losses. Most of the boys who played on the l.V.'s this year will probably be on the varsity next year. Therefore their training in good sportsmanship and the funda- mentals of basketball will make the future brighter for the 1951 blue and gold cagers. Some of the outstanding players on the squad were loe VV'oods, Richard Esquivel, and Terry Mack, who was elected captain of the team. ln the Iunior Varsity Tournament at Tolleson the Owlets got into the finals of the consolation bracket, but were defeated by a strong Buckeye Squad. Ioe Wood was chosen as captain of the all-tournament secondtearn.

Small Track Squad Proves Very Strong THE 1949-50 TRACK TEAM, although small, was much feared and very powerful. Their weight was felt in every track meet in which they participated. The first meet of the year was with Tolleson and Buckeye, at Tolleson. This was fol- lowed by meets with the Glendale I.V.'s and the North Phoenix I.V.'s. Next were the Arizona Relays, in which L.H.S.'s one-mile relay team ran one of the finest races of the year. The team consisted of Willie Fulks, Ed Monty, Phil Brownlie, and Don Coulter. Each ran 443 yards. The following week came the Chandler Relays, and then the district meet. Willie Fulks Won the 220 yard dash, successfully' defending his title, and placed third in the century. loe Lipscomb placed third in the mile run. These performances qualified these boys to run in the state meet at Tempe where Willie Eulks placed third in the 220 yard dash. Running the different events and showing very well during the season were Willie Fulks in the l00 and 220 yard dashes and the relay, Phil Brownlie and Don Coulter in the 440 yard dash and relay: Ioe Lipscomb in the mile, the high jump, and the 880 yard rung Ed Monty in the 440 yard dash and the 880 yard rung Ray Stewart in the l00 and the 220 yard dashes, the broad jump, and the relay: Dick Kingsbury in the pole Vaulty lames Ackman, in the shot put and the mile rung and, Fred Harwood in the shot put.
