Coach Stanley Broome's baseball squad ended the 1941 season in third place in the Valley Standings, topped by Northern in first place and Arthur Hill in second position. Our team took the City Championship by defeating Northern two games out of three and thereby gained the first leg of the Ethel Kline City series trophy. The squad's heaviest hitter was stortstop Frenchy Sullivan and the leading pitcher I. C. Ross won four and dropped two. The 1942 Varsity had five former players back: Sullivan, shortstop: Rol- lins, 3rd base: Guerre, outfield: Massar, 2nd base: and Williams, pitcher. Other outstanding candidates who worked up from the reserve team were Snider, lst base: Martin, Slocum, Nunn. Shiek, and Lewis, pitchers. The 1942 team made a stronger hitting organiza- tion: its defense was also stronger, and the pitching was seemingly favorable. TENNIS The 1942 Indian Net Squad, under Coach Clement Rowe, continued its success of previous years. With a record of four in a row to the middle of May, the netters chalked up their 37th consecutive dual match victory in defeating Midland 6 to 3. The Tribe was favored to win the City series, having won the first tilt, defeating Northern 7 to 2. TENNIS SQUAD-Front Row: lack Maatch, Dick Meade, Bill Crow Mr Clement Rowe.

SWIMMING Under the able direction of Coach Iohn Milholland Centra1's swimming team surged forward to great honors during the 1941 Season, defeating Pon- tiac twice and Lansing Central once, and bowed to both Ann Arbor and Iackson. In the State Championship contests they received additional fame. In the backstroke of the State Championship, Bill Kelley captured first berth and lim McTaggart placed fifth. Stacey De- Camp received third place in the fifty yard free style, while Ross Crawley scored second in diving. The medley relay tied for fifth place. The team as a whole ranked fourth in the state meet being led by Iackson, Battle Creek, and Ann Arbor. At the end of the season Bill McTaggart was chosen Captain by vote of the entire squad. The divers were coached by Stanley Broome. GOLF SQUAD-Front Row: Bob Bellen- ger, Iack Magidsohn, Iohn Turner. Back Row: Bud McKinley, Merton Burkholder. Mr. Sulho Nurmi, Harold Carr. VALLEY AND REGIONAL CHAMPIONS The Golf Squad of 1941 was a team that Central was proud of. Coached by Mr. Sulho Nurmi, they won the Valley Championship and the Regional, de- spite the loss of the City Championship. The team was composed of B. B. Stipes, Lyle Arehart, Ioe Carr, Bud McKinley, Merton Burkholder, Bob Ballenger, and Iohn Turner. Coach Nurmi expected the 1942 squad to even surpass the 1941 team, in as much as Carr, McKinley, Burkholder, Ballenger, and Turner retumed. They were greatly favored to win the Darn- ton Trophy as a return from Northern's taking the City Crown in 1941.
