The club record was made three and one as the Tigers downed Fallon, 6-1. Soon afterwards the Green and Gold ran their record to six wins against three setbacks. The team then prepared for the crucial game against St. Joe's. The squads fought nip and tuck for ten innings before the Saints took the upper hand in the 11th inning. A single and a triple, back to back scored the run which pushed Timon out of first place. Jack O'Connor is nailed at the plate in a battle at Cazenouia Park.

6 s B SEBALL The Baseball Tigers posted a won-6 lost-4 record in last year's competition. The Bengals started the season on the right foot by nosing out St. J0e's 2-0 on the wings of Jim S0rrentin0's two hit performance. For the second contest of the season the Timon squad traveled to Delaware Park where they absorbed an 8-7 reverse at the hands of Canisius High. The Crusaders took quick advantage of five walks handed out by the Timon pitching staff and added a pair of base hits to push four runs across in the fifth inning. On their next outing the South-siders posted their second shutout of the year by dropping Ryan 3-0. Again Sorrentino controlled things from the mound. VARSITY BASEBALL TEAM: CKneeling from leftj K.

Hund, J lllulvev manager Mr Barrous Coach Three washouts and a continual threat from the forces of nature held the J .V. schedule to only three contests. As a result, the team fin- ished the season with a 2-1 record. In the opening fight Timon survived a shaky first inning and then buried Fallon under a 16-3 deluge. The second win of the campaign re- sulted from an avengeful spirit among the Timon players who wished to overcome the only team which defeated them the previous year . . . St. Francis. The win came by an 8-4 rhargin. Canisius was responsible for the only reverse, a score of 4-0, behind the four hit pitching of Paul Andrewski.
