Due to the war and the loss of busses for athletic trips, the base- ball team was able to play only Parker in two double headers. BIythe dropped three to the Indians and won one. In the first encounter at BIythe, Parker took the first game 10-9, but BIythe outswung them in the second 14-13. BIythe dropped the next two at Parker, 7-4 and 1 1-3. Battery for the Yellowjackets was Bob McDonald, Tom Farrage and E. O. Maltby. First stringers included E. O. Maltby, Tom Farrage, Bob McDonald, Leo Welch, Jesse Faulkner, Bob Robin- son, Lawrence Holly, and Luther Pettit. BASEBALL

Opening the 1941 season against Parker, BIythe was downed by a score of 1 3-0, by the Indians. Traveling to Hemet for the next game, Palo Verde fell before Hemet, 24-7, the only score made by Capt. Bob Campbell on a pass from Corones. In BIythe ' s next encounter with Parker, it was a long pass in the last 30 seconds of the game that defeated our team. BIythe ploughed over Coachella in its next game, putting them under with a 6-0 score. A nice pass from Corones to Clyde (sticky-fingers) Bowen, did the trick for the winning score. BIythe took the Yuma Frosh in stride, 37-0, at the game on BIythe ' s home field. Palo Verde over- whelmed Yuma from the opening gun, and never gave them a chance to score. Scoring the greatest upset of the season was the BIythe win over Needles. Rated the underdog of the game, BIythe knocked down the Needles attack, and forged on to score twice. The first, a plunge on left tackle and a 30 yard run by Tommy Freeman, and the next, a pass by Tommy Freeman, and the next, a pass from Byrd to Bowen, winding up the game, 13 to 0, and the season. Keith Rice, a junior and Letterman on the team, was voted to Captain the grid squad in 1942, suc- ceeding Bob Campbell.
