THE TOWER, 1930 Bo yls Athletics p During the school year the coaches have carried on an intensive athletic program for the boys. There have been inter-section and interclass contests in all major sports, football, soccer, basketball, track, indoor baseball, and nine inch base- ball. In all of these games, except in track where the freshies took last place both times, the ninth grade has proven itself superior. In football the F, G and H sections won in the 7th, 8th and 9th grades respectively. The eighth grade won their game from the seventh, and met the ninth grade headed by Earl Barham as captain, on October 21. The eighth grade played heady ball but the ninth grade was greater in weight and experience, and they consequently Won out. On December 4, W'ednesday, the Central football team met the Chemawa team. The game was well at.tended by the student body. Central dropped the game to their opponents by the score of 6-7. In soccer results were somewhat differentg the 7 E 8 A and 9 C winning in their grades. The seventh graders surprised everybody and Won their game from the eighth grade by a dropkick. The score was 5-4. The ninth grade easily Won their game with the seventh grade on Janaury 27. . Basketball honors were hotly contested, with the 7 E, 8 E and 9 C Winning out after somewhat of a struggle. The interclass championship was played between the eighth and ninth grade 011 lNIarch 25. The game was a close one, the final score being 16-15 in the freshies' favor. Billy Peterson captained the ninth grade and Kenneth Powell the eighth grade. Indoor baseball proved less interesting to the student body. The ,7 I, 8 D and 9 F sections won out in their respective grades. On April 16 the ninth grade de- feated the eighth grade to the tune of 5-3 for the interclass championship. The schedule for the nine inch baseball games were arranged differently. The new system gives each section a chance to play every other section in its grade. In the other games, after a team was defeated it could play no more in the cham- pionship race. In track the lower grades responded well, but the Freshies had but a few men out. The Junior Olympics plan was used entirely. At the play day on May 9, the boys showed the training that the coaches had been giving them, they carried off second honors. At physical education period, the sections are formed into teams, and they prac- tice together getting used to playing in their own team. The coaches included fundamentals in some of their work. To all boys playing on the inter-section champion team, and to all boys that have made a point for their school in inter-school activities, and to the two boys who make the highest number of points in the Junior Olympics in their class, goes an athletic HC . the G's, 20-8. Seventh grade champions were the H-I's after a game with the B's5 the score being 20-10. The nine D's and F's played for the championship in volley ball with the D's winning two out of three games. Wlhen the 8 D's played the 8 F 's they still retained their record and not only won the eighth grade championship but that of the school. Seven G's and F's final game resulted in the victory of the G's. Several classes also played speed ball for a short time. The baseball season has just started and no tournaments have been played.
