Tennis After a one year lapse, the Mount tennis team returned to action in 52. Much of the credit for reviving this spirit at the Mount goes to Dr. Dillon who encouraged the form- ing of a team and its entry into the Mason-Dixon Con- ference. In the absence of a coach, the members of the team have helped each other. Ed Wyatt, who is considered one of the most promising players in the state, has been particularly helpful along these lines. All the members of the team except Frank Grubic, a junior, are freshmen and sophomores. With young talent Camilletti makes a vicious return as teammate Keene showing the promise that this year’s squad has, the next looks on. few years should see the Mount as a leading contender in tennis competition.

Baseball The past year’s baseball team had a new coach in Mr. Frank Appichella, ’37. Sophomore Paul Clark received the nod to start at first base. Last year’s leading hitter, Paul Sharpe, and Freshman Bob McKew made up the “keystone” combination, with veteran Art Mace taking over at the ‘hot corner.’ The outfield was in the capable hands of Captain Bill Cavanaugh, “Herky”’ Dawes, and Carroll McCourt, with Jerry Galvin on hand to lend sup- port. Frank Tumulty was the man who wore the iron mask behind the plate. The Mount pitching was done by sophomores Ward Clark, Leo Green and Ned Powers, with John Smith again in the role of “Fireman.” The managers of the squad were George Carter, Pete O’Hagen and “Duke” Molloy. ae e pe oe Kneeling: W.

Intramurals The most extensive intramural program in the history of the Mount was put into effect during the ’51-’52 school year. The touch football league proved to be a great success, with many of last year’s varsity squad participating. The men played with a spirit of fire and determination that marks all truly great competitors. Third Bruté, with “Ace” Adams and “Herky’’ Dawes at the helm, won the championship with 10 wins and 1 loss, while Second McCaffrey, lead by former varsity halfback Ed Ward, placed second with 9 wins, 1 loss, and 1 tie. Third DuBois and First McCaffrey both had fine teams, coming in third and fourth respectively. At the end of the football season, all-star teams were chosen from each class. The senior all-star team had little difficulty defeating the freshmen while the sophomores won a close, hard-fought game from a It’s gonna be close. 128
