MOST of the credit for Stadium ' s extra-successful sports year is due to the hard- working staff of coaches. Mr. Morris, athletic director, also coached the Varsity and Reserve basket ball squads. Coach hieinrick led both the champion football team and the baseball nine, while Mr, Lowman handled the Midget teams. Mr. Christie was in charge of the track team and the sophomore Reserve football squad. Mr. Jolllffe ' s Jayvees had a successful season, as did Mr. Perkins ' golf team. Mr. Keyes, new instructor here, handled the swimmers, the boys ' gym classes, and supervised the tennis team. Mr. Arpke coached the rifle team and was in charge of the equipment room. Miss McCulloch led the girls ' after-school sports and gym classes. - , PLENTY of pep and originality was displayed by ttiis year ' s quintet of yell leaders. Chief Pep Inspirer Frank Belfoy and his dukes, Slim Sommervflle and Sherman Whipple, assisted by tWo queens, Liz Rawh ' ng%.and Ruth Brumbaugh, were always on hand to insure ' plenfy of- udibJe support for Stadium teams. Although they failed to retain the Tl»ianksgivlng pep trophy, they did a- good job of keeping the crowd pepped-up. Be+ween-the-halves entertainment, absent from Stadium games for some time, returned this year in a big way, sponsored rhainly by Mai Stevens and Hal Byer. These unofficial stooges dreamed up burlesque football and basket ball games and a wrestling matcl that kept the crowds entertained. t ' ' ' • Frarilf Belfoy, Ruth Brumbaugh, Elizabeth Rawlings, Sherman Whipple. f ■ I ,wrfc y c o A C H E S A D E R S Nlnelynlne

The Y squad was especially fortunate in having three such forwards as Llla hiart, Shirley McDonald and Helen Baisch. Shirley rarely missed a shot, even in the most difficult positions. Also outstanding were the quick-footed side-centers, Virginia Wing and Virginia hiamilton. Practically this same team was runnei;-up in last year ' s tournament. The mem- bers of the squad worked fast and smoothly together with their main advantage in their fine forwards. iC t) LED by their diminutive captain, Mary Gordon, the senior X team, runners-up in basket ball, played well during all their games but lacked the spirit and coopera- tion of the championship team. Mary and Ruth Brumbaugh shone as forwards, turning in fine performances at each game. Betty Miller was outstanding in her center position, especially good at getting the ball out from under the very noses of the opposing team. Ella Norman and Jeanne Rea tarred as guards. The two have played together in this position since tKey first came to Stadium and have developed fine teamwork. Jo Garretson. Shirley Taylor.
