Robert Blessing took the helm of the BASEBALL TEAM, and steered it through nine Wins and seven defeats. The quick eye of Willa1'd Mueller, catch- erp the arm of Big lim Phillips, pitcher: and, Blessings fielding at shortstop, were important tactors in keeping the team in fourth place in the North Section. Although the crew out-hit Lane 6-3 in the second encounter, We lost l-O. An- other heart-breaker Was the second Taft battle, in which the enemy scored many unearned runs due to errors. The season's heavy hitters were Robert Campbell with 522, and lim Phillips with .52l. Captain Robert Blessing Coach Maurice Weintraub THE RECORD Arnundsen I5 .............
