BLUE AND GOLD BASS BALL About thirty promising Candidates turned out Ibr baseball this spring. Baseball has always been con— sidered a minor sport in this school. Perhaps that is the reason why our teems have not been consistent winners Lt this writing only three of the six scheduled games have been played. Our opening game was played with Fayette at rtiuhley Park. The game was not very exciting as indicated by the lopsided score. The local easily defeated them by a score cf 11-5. The main feature of the game was the pitching of Steen son. In the next game which vms played with Chester- field, the team showed some clever baseball. We de- feated the powerful Chesterfield by a score of 6-2. The main strength of the team was the ability to get men in scoring positions by the Use of timely hitting. Steenson f s pitching, and the fielding, of Paul Short, Edward Schlatter, Lauber, Frey and P. Schlattor play- ed an important part in our victory. When the boys played the return game with fay- ette, they were also victorious by c. score of 11-8, Dick Laubor hit a homo run in the first inning. It was the longest drive of the season. Tho othor gomes of the season include two games with Pettisvilie and a return game with Chesterfield. Tho team has had a veiy successful season so far. TRACK The cinder path has not attracted Archbold ath- letes very much in recent years. However, this year a small but versatile group shouldered the burden of putting the school on tho map in the various track meets. Only four let termen from the sq.ua d of the year before were elegible this year. Three meets were held. The first was a triangu- ular at Delta between Delta ,Swanton and Archbold held on April 20th. The Fulton County meet was staged at the Wauseon fairgrounds on May 7th. Tho last tilt was the Bi-County at Fayette.

EDWARD SCHLATTER Ed While playing guard he fbund that height could be used to a great ad- vantage. Ed played hard and fast. PAUL SCHLATTER Paul His size enabled him to cover a Mg place in the zone of defense. RICHARD LAUBER.. Dick His all around ability made him a valuable man. PAUL SH0££ Shorty 'r ”! A year!ing who emerged from the Freshman class. THOMAS WINZELER Tom He could be counted on at center. JAKES BARGER Jim He made good every chance. PAUL BOWERS Sleepy His height was a big asset. To Coach Farber should go much praise for hip ability to decipher our opponents’ plays and build appropriate defenses. INTRAMURAL SPORTS This year saw a continuance of the intramural sports started last year. Keeping in mind the fact that physical education is for the purpose of giving actual participation in athletics to the whole high school, a well balanced program of sports was offer- ed to all who cared to enter. The activities avail- able this year were basketball, volley ball, and track. These sports were open to both boys and girls Under an intensive program of this kind it was impossible for any boy or girl not to find opportu- nity for entering into some form of competitive sport In practically every case, entrance in these games was limited to those members of the high school who were not already on varsity teams, thus assuring everyone a chance. To date, the sum of the scores is: the seniors first with 23 1 3 points; the juniors, second with 19 points; the sophomores third with 8 1 3 points and the freshmen,fourth with 6 1 3 points. — ( 22 ) —
