EMERYVILLE HI versus C. S. D. On February 14, we journeyed to Emeryville and our team met a sting- ing defeat at the hands of the taller Emeryville quintet.

Our BH team lost, as usual, by the score of 33 to 18. PLEASANTON HI versus C. S. D. This game proved to be identical to the first game of the season between the two schools.

BASKETBALL After a successful year in 1938, in which our team won the only Basket- ball Championship in the history of the school, many of the star players graduated, thus leaving Coach Byoulc with a handful of very green players for the campaign of '39. Our school was hit by a storm of defeats to the right and left. The A team lost all the games with the exception of one. Although they met defeat, they gave the hearing boys a battle each time, losing the game by a mere point at times. On the other hand the B team was a complete Hop, failing to win a single game. They were badly outscored throughout the season. LIBERTY I-II versus C. S. D. Our A team lost a hard fought game to Liberty High School, Jan- uary 13, on the latter's floor. The score was 38 to 37. The B team got snowed under by the taller enemy quint, losing by the score of 42 to 19. EMERYVILLE HI versus C. S. D. Our MAH team lost a dull game to the Spartans in our pavilion. The Emeryville quint had the advantage in height, sinking the ball on the re- bounds. The Deaf boys' quint, a much faster group, lost by the score of 21 to 17. BH team was defeated, 27 to 12.

TRACK For the sixth consecutive year, the deaf tracksteers carried away the con- ference championship. This year's crop of distance runners have paved the way for good showing in all meets. Ar Antioch we lost to a superior team by 4 points. To show that our showing was no fluke we won the an- nual invitational meet at St. Helena by 31 points to Esparto's 22, our closest competitor.
