f BASEBALL Baseball Is e very uncertain sport to rro hesy et Brecken- ridge this year. Very little is known ebout the teem except thet the catching depertment will be well fortified. The pitching problem faced by Coech Hicks is the mein thing right no . Most of the other positions will be wide open reces. Breckenridge's hopes for the all-sports trophy rest with the baseball team end so all we can do is support the teem and hope B.H.S. cones thru in good style. The schedule is: St. Louis Chesening Ithaca St. Charles Shepherd Elsie Kenlock Riverdale TRACK Breckenridge has been noted for its unusually strong treck teams. This year offers no change. B.H.S. placed a good second last year and as only Quldort and Fookes of lest year's tear, will be missed, another well-belar.ced teen is expected. B.H.S. should show strength in the sprints, middle distances and the events. A track schedule has been arranged as follows: Central State Relays Triangulor-Hemlock, Merrill Regional Meet Triangular---St. Louis, Shepherd Conference Meet INTRA-MURAL The introduction of intramural noon hour snorts last year proved to be so successful and popular thet the program has been permanently adaed to the sports curriculum. For boys who aren't included on the varsity squads this noon hour diversion has given them a chance to show their ability. Coech Hicks has kept a sharp watch of these players and several of them were moved up to the squad. The sports included on this program are basketball and base- ball. There were five teams entered in the basketball league with the Freshmen A team coming out on top. Baseball is Just getting under way at this writing but quite a few teams are entered. GIRLS GYM A girls' gym class was organized for the second time in B.H. S., under the direction of Miss Filion and Mss I sham. This class Included girls from the ninth to the twelfth grade. They met every Tuesday ond Friday nights ofter school in the gym. The girls enjoyed basketball, bat bell, volley ball, dances, and mar- ches. Two games of basketball were played with Merrill and Breck- enridge lost both games. In the spring when weather permitted soft ball was Dlaved out of doors. 27
