BOYS' BASEBALL Led by the hitting and pitching of Fred Riley, the '48 horsehidechasers split a four game calendar in a 3-1 ratio, losing only to Orange in the contest for county championship. With nearly all of the team batting over .300, the Aces found that the trouble lay not in getting runs, but in maintaining a tight defense to protect their lead. The big thrill of the season for the Ashlians came when the fly chasers slammed sweet revenge on Radnor to the tune of l8-6. In this game every Ace dented the plate at least once. The only defeat came in the county finals, when the Aces, struggling under a mountain of errors, threw the game to Orange, 9-1. If a pitcher can be found to fill Riley's shoes, the prospects look good for the coming year. The infield of Davis, Boring, Murray and Maples remains intact and the outfield suffered only the loss of left-fielder Knauber, Bartlett and Hershey returning to bolster the '49 squad. The season's scores follow: 8-3 Waldo 18-6 Radnor 5-3 Powell 1-9 Orange GIRLS' ATHLETICS The newly organized Girls' Athletic Association has had a good year in its crusade for women's rights. . Girls now also are included in the provision for athletic letters. A point system has been set up for each girl. She receives ten points for each of the four sports she enters -- hockey, basketball, volleyball, softball -- and in this manner may earn a letter. Among the activities enjoyed was the intramural hockey game fthe first in the history of Ashley, held last fall. Basketball season then started and the girls traveled to Delaware for a play day. Other county girls helped make teams and every girl played a half, after which refreshments were served by the Wesleyan All-Stars. Not only did Ashley play on county teams, but they formed their own six-man team and invited other teams to play here. Volleyball and softball completed the schedule, and a full schedule it was. Much credit is due Mrs. Hurd for her work in the department, and an even bigger program is being planned for next year as the infant organization grows to take its rightful position in the school's curriculum.
