BASEBALL It was just a year ago this spring that our community had a championship baseball team. The l948 Argolite honors these Argonauts! They were South Suburban Conference champions, district champions, sectional champions, and they were in the quarter-finals in the state championship at Peoria! Three cheers for the team! Three cheers for Coach Cook! Looking especially good for the l948 season are: George Hebding, Charles Neerman, Charles Leimgruber, Fred Threm, Milton Bohannion, Art Leimgruber, Eugene Schmitz, Wesley Howell, Booker Haynes, Thomas Esposito, lames Copp, William Bray, Ioe Sparacino, William Scoby, Thomas Hebding. GIRLS' ATHLETICS The program of athletics for girls offers opportunities for developmental and corrective gymnastics as vvell as learning and sharing in cooperative and re- sponsible action. The final objective is good health and a sound philosophy of life. CSee G.A.A. pages! PHYSICAL EDUCATION Weight lifting and apparatus groups Coften unknown to the community? contribute a great deal to the developmental side of the high school boy. The progress, the achievements, and the physical development of some of our boys has been tremendous.
