1571 :ball Every position on the baseball squad was ably filled by veterans of previous years. This factor proved Perry to be, as usual, one of the leading contenders in the county hoop. The team, coached by Mr. Barone and Mr. Baker, shaped up well, so it clicked perfectly on every play. With the spirit to win and the ability to do so, Perry got off to a promising good start. :uni The Perry Tennis team of 1954 is probably the best team in the Wyoming County. They haven't lost any players from the 1953 season and that makes them extra strong. Mr. McCarthy, who is their coach, is really a swell guy to play for, and gets the best results from the team. Crack This season, as in previous years, a large group of candidates turned out at the first call for track practice. Due to the fact that there is no limit as to the number of participants in an event, all the members competed in our meets. There was one major change this year. The team elected co-captains to aid Mr. Whitney from the field. Again, as in the past few seasons, Mr. Whitney has provided the team with excellent coaching.
