Depth was the big factor in their inability to follow in the steps of their big brothers-the Varsity team. The Junior Varsity's 26,game winning streak was halted in the first tilt of the season by the high' flying Olympians ol Leuzinger, as Coach Tom Branigon's boys dropped that contest, 50-37. However, the Poor Man's Varsity did manage to get its share of glory with wins over such powers as Mira Costa, Santa Monica, Poly, Leuzinger, Dominguez, North Torrance, El Segundo, and Hawthorne. All in all, the Red and White finished with a 574 pre-league record, a 6-4 league record, and a third spot in the Pioneer Loop. The Bee squad could only manage a 5-l5 seasonal record, but they showed a slight spurt of strength by winning three out of the last five games. The Cee team could do little better with a 4-l5 yearly mark, Both the Bee and Cee teams are now building for MHS's l96i championship Varsity team.

GULF Coach Jack Holstine's golf team had many out- standing players this year, Among them were Doug Willsie, Ken Platt, Ken Ahlburg, DeWitt McMeans, John Best and Tom Daniels. The team practices at the Inglewood Country Club and also has its home meets there. The golfers have also had matches in such exclusive places as the Brentwood Country Club. The matches are usually held on Mondays and Fridays. As many of the outstanding players will be returning next year, Coach Holstine hopes for an outstanding squad. Their record this year, half-way through the VA, .. , , '5-',.fx. . ' League season, was three wins and two losses.

TENN Morningside's much improved tennis team, now in its second year of competition, had already won seven matches at the press time, compared with four during last year's entire season. The outstanding doubles players were Lenny and Danny Kaufman, who were carrying an undefeated record through close victories over Beverly Hills' and North High's top doubles teams. Top singles players include senior Lane Roth and iuniors Art Goldberg and Dick Hager- man. Sophomore stars were Mike Bell, John Gordon, Rich Carsner, Bob Gast, Dave Kauth, Cliff Rhodes, Bob Faught, Gary Floor, and Don Emery. Larry Smith was the tennis coach for the second year. The outstanding match up to press time was a 6 to 3 victory over North High, who were 1958 Pioneer League champions. According to Coach Smith, Practice is the most important thing and the team is getting plenty every day . A high league finish was expected from the team as they were in a tie for second at press time, and they had a remote chance of taking first place. With many encouraging sophomores, they are looking forward to a great season next year, but the competition should be tougher in the Bay League. The team is hoping for construction of tennis courts on the MHS campus next year so they can practice at school.
