BASE BALL SEASON 1947 Bright prospects are in line for our baseball team this year. The newly organized conference includes Capron, Sharon, Palmyra, and Richmond. Capron has a good chance of being at the top of this con- ference, being we have a number of players from last years team re- turning again this year. The list of holdovers are Lloyd Carmicheal-shortstopg George Hove-third basemang Darrell Samuelson-catcherg Herman Zick-left fieldg John Georgeson-center 'fieldg and either Wilford or Robert Lambert in right field. Anker Rasmussen may pitch or play outfield. Newcomers are Robert Courtney-pitcherg Russel Bremer-pitcher or infielderg and Steve Bonne- second baseman. These boys who are pitchers will probably play elsewhere when not pitching. Of course we have other underclassmen who may make the squad so it seems We are well fortified. We have games scheduled with St, Thomas of Rockford which will be a non-conference game. There is also the possibility of games with Hebron and Northwestern Military Academy, as we have played them in former years. Two dozen new bats have been purchased as well as a good supply of baseballs. With all of this new equipment and a little ability, Capron is sure to rate high in the conference.
