Pentathlon -. h The Pentathlon, a yearly feature of the Boys' Sports department ended a very fine season of accomplishment in track, The winners of this part of the athletic program have proven them- selves worthy of the honors that go to the winners. In class A, Hans Gaspar was pro- claimed winner, by winning three 0; the five events, and placing high in the other two. Ed Halminski placed second by not winning any event, but by placing second in every event. Bill Satterlee placed third, with Jack Ste- ver fourth, and Lawrence Broering and Joe Iler. tying for fifth, but on the tosg of the coin Lawrence won. In class B, the turnout was very poor, but the four that were out staged a Battle Royal. Irvine Sear- le emerged the winner with Robert Hardball + Well, It seems the school board sub- mitted to the boys' pleading for hard ball. A certain Major Hull who has had a great deal to do with baseball and its players has given his after- noons recently to the coaching of the fellows who are interested in hardball. He is rewarded almost more than he Wishes, for every afternoon there is a surplus of fellows who go away and wait for the next afternoon. DeMills, Walter Wenzel, and Harry Oka finishing in that order. Howard Cheverton did the impos- sible by winning every event to annex the blue ribbon for class C. George Sato placed second, with Koho Ozone, Robert Cockle, and Russell Burkett finishing in that order. Hans Gaspar will by virtue of his victory in class A have his name engraved on the Pentathlon Cup.

Page 10 Baseball Results area. This baseball season produced pre- season expectations on the part of the coaches. Due to the addition of two new members on our coaching staff we were benefited by smoothly run games. The teams in Winning these per cents certainly deserve credit, as it was a hard-fought season.

Good work, boys! H-Aw Captains hp In baseball, the last sport of the present school year, the after-school teams got off to a fine start. All the teams had at least eight players on the field. Besides having a. good turnout the election of captains proved to be very interesting. with one of the best crops of leaders in the history of afterschool athletics. The following boys were elected: Class A Bears, Lawrence Broering; Eagles, Diek DeGolia; Indians, Lloyd Van De Venter; and Lions, Bobby Finch. Class B Bears, Clarence Parmenter; Eagles. Walter Wenzel: Indians, John Doiien: and Lions, Irving Searl. Class C Richard Josselyn; Pears. Eagles, Tomu Yusa: Indians, Harry Oka' and Lions. Ted Young. We have had lots of fun and action from these boys and their teammates, not only high scores, but 9 ijoyment also. LA TOR 1E SPORTSHOTS EH In winning the pentathlon for his C division, Howard Cheverton estab- lished some sort of new record by winning every event. This, at least in the knowledge of this writer, has never been done before. Our newly organized hardball base- ball team under the direction of Major M.O.C. Hull was very successful for the short time it was organized. The team is composed of pitchers, Broer- ing, Whitney, Satterlee, and Kendall; catchers, Compton, Muraki, Nuss, and Darrah; first base, W. Noble, O'Con- ner, Larson, and Mansfield; second base, McGowan, and Meridith; third base, Maxwell, and Kistncr; shortstop, J. Greedy, F. Wright, DeGolia, Ham- men, Finch, Martin, McCall, and Schirm. With the training the boys get here at junior high they should go a long way the next three years at senior high. The boys' tennis tournament didn,t have such a large entry list as before, especially in the doubles, but that didn't step it from being one of the hardest fought in the history of the school. , Our after school baseball teams turned in very good games. The boys displayed a fine spirit of sportsmanship and fair play sel'!om seen on our field. In the girls track meet many prom- ising stars were uncovered. Janice Weiss has the making of a future track star, and maybe an Olympic champion. Connie Mosher in the class B looms as a threat to the records held by former stars at our school. These boys and girls are considered the best graduating athletes: Hans Gaspar- track, baseball, and football.

Carol Henry was high point man for the H , O tracksters. with Margaret Cook and fiBiddie Pfeiffer tied for second place 116110115, and Phyllis Mason third. A huomerous Ml highlight of the meet wes the baseball lthrow. where pre- vious records were shattered by all entrants. The competitors didnlt have very long to feel proud of themselves, ' however, for it was soon discovered that the measurements were wrong. and the records were in no- danger of being broken. Another highlight was the 75 yard dash for As where the flying feet of Janice Weiss carried her to a new class A record in the fast time of 8.8 seconds. Margaret Cook little 8A Speedster, traveled 50 yards in 6.8 seconds, to tie the exist 111:: record for class C. The B and C discus throwers, eligible for the plat- ter-tossing event for the first time, set up marks at which future ath- letes will shoot. with the B record going to Pat Lillie at 62 feet 1!; in- ches. and Carol Henry, C star, getting off a. toss 0f 55 feet 5 inches. A new A record for the running broad jump was almost reached by Arlee Jean Reynolds, when she leaped 13 feet 9 inches on her final try, surpassingr all previous attempts. Unfortunately, she tlcrowhopped on the jump, and it was ruled 'out first place and the new rec- ord going to Janice Weiss, 9A, star. at 13 feet 1 inch. The relay, which closed the meet, was won easily by the fast 9A team, with the 8A four second and the 8B's third. The summary: 50 yd. dash: first.
