Divisional Meets Berg was the only Pirate spikeman to qualify for the Southern California finals. He won first place in broad jump, a leap of 20 feet 6 inches. This made him eligible for the finals. There our Pirate did not have a chance, his best leap was 20 feet 10 inches and five or more Southern High aspirants leaped over 21 feet. ' ' W ' :w ' w CARMAN, FRASER, HURLEY 108

EH BASEBALL THIRD ROW: MGfT. CROW, LONGEREAK, KINGSTON. MEARS. ROBINSON, EMRICK; SECOND ROW: R- GRANT, POPLIN, LAMP. FLORES, HATCHER; FIRST ROW: DYSART, FAULK, M. GRANT. LANG, MAYO, WIGTON. COACH KOLEERG, INDOOR BASEBALL Because of lack of Interest and the great ex- pense, the schools of Ventura County have dropped regular baseball from their sport curri- culum. However, through the help of the coaches and the baseball enthusiasts, indoor baseball has been substituted. The indoor season started April 15, with a large turnout on the first day. Many of the veterans of hardball were among those who re- ported for action. After a week of practice, under the able supervision of Coach Eric Kol- berg and the leadership of Captain Lang, the team was ready for action. A practice game with the Saticoy All Stars, a local team, was the first Pirate victory. The following week Fillmore bowed to the powerful Pirates in the first league game of the season. The contest featured the excellent pitching of William Dysart and the good hitting of Capt. Lang, The final score was 10 to 4. The Pirates, venturing to Santa Paula for the next game, found the Cardinals a bit more com- petition than were the Blue and Whites, but they managed to take a close victory with an 8 to 5 score. Our old rivals, Oxnard, were the next victims to fall before the Buccaneers, In this most in- teresting game of the season Ventura scored two runs in the first inning, and allowed the Yellowjackets only one run, which was scored in the seventh inning when Eastwood poled out a homer. William Dysart had a good day with nine strike-outs and 3 hits. The infield played an excellent game with Joe Mayo starring on first base. This ended the first round of the league, with return games scheduled with all teams. Ventura won from Fillmore again by the overwhelming score of 21 to 0. Features of the game were 6 home runs and 1 7 hits, every Ven- tura man collecting at least one. Owing to the early printing of the annual yearbook, the out- come of the rest of the games cannot be given here, but with Ventura in the lead with 4 vic- tories and no defeats it appears certain that the Pirates will have another championship.
