Father Potempa Our Sports Director Defpite the fact that Father Potempa has been engaged with many other important du- ties, he never cons.dercd tlme spent on the team wasted. Being particularly interested in football, he made every effort to promote the success of the squad undertakings. Father Potempa is also responsible for the excellent program of indoor sports initiated in- to St. Anthony's this year. No word of thanks could fully express the appreciation which we, the student body, wish to extend to Father Potempa, our sports direc- tor. Football A St. Anthcny's Bobcats although not able to complete their entire schedule, due to the in- fantile paralysis epidemic that prevailed all through the football season, were nevertheless victorious in three out of their four encounters. The first was the annual alumni battle in which the Bobcats trimmed their opponents I2 to 7. The next game was with the Crook eleven, who dropped the Bobcats to a I3 to 7 loss. This one de-feat was, however, quickly made up for by two smashing victories over Otis High sc-hocl, the scores being I9 to 0 and 38 to 7. Nvith this last 38 to 7 victory the football season was closed. The squad was composed of Bernard Quinn, Charles Wagner, Lawrence Shaughnes- sv, Howard Killerlain, Peter Breiner, William Truitt, Aldo Vecchia, John Breiner, ,lack Kee- nan, William Haverland and Bob Hoffman. Pep Club During the past year, our Pep club has been an organization of which we can be just- ly proud.

The play opens at a time when Mr. Fuller, president of the Fuller Paper Company, was ordered away bv his doctor for a rest. l-lis first thought was Who will look after that unruly, that incorrigible family of mine? However, his worrfment was soon relieved when his sec- retary, 'Steve Goodspeed. volunteered to un- dertake the job. Mr. Fuller warned him what to expect but Steve hailed from Texas and knew something about breaking in bronchos, and he figured that he should be capable of managing the riotous Fuller family. But he fig- ured wrongly. Breaking bronchos, he soon learned, was easy in comparison. I-low that family kicked up the tracesl When he tried to restrain Mrs. Fuller from her ridiculous extravagances she flew into an hysterical rage: and Howard, that upstart son, fairly reared at the mention of dis- cipline: and as for Margaret, when he tried to curb her infatuation for Rodney Beresford, he was rewarded for his interference with a slap in the face. To make matters worse. a dastardly plot to ruin the Fuller Company was brought to light. Steve is thus confronted with the prob- lem of governing the family and protecting the business o'f his devoted friend. ln spite of all, Steve manages to cope with all these compli- cated situations and proves himself the man for the job.

X . Basketball A full schedule of eleven games was play- ed by the basldteball squad of St. Anth'ony's this season. Although they were not as success- ful as they might have been, they nevertheless climaxed the season in the final tilt with a vic- tory over the Ovid Red-Devils wlhose team was runner-up in the divisional meet held in Ster- ling. Without dodbt each member of the team deserves merit for the interest and effort mani- fested throughout. But without the direction of our loyal coach, Ed Carr, little success would have been attained. To him the team extends a hearty thank you . Ping Pong A real system of indoor sports was initi- atediinto St. Anthony's this year by Father Po- tempa, Sports Director. Two deck tennis sets Baseball C. Schadegg, W. Truitt and two Ping Pong tables were set up in the school hall and each day during a period of one half-hour students were engaged in contest games preparatory to the final tournament. A loving cup was awarded the champion boy and girl who succeeded in defeating the winner of each class. Honors in this year's tournament go to two Sophomores, Cecilia Schadegg and William Truitt. M.
