Page Eight CARDINAL AND WHITE April 2, 1958 ofihelflanih GENE KOHNEN is, among other things, a primary reason for Moel- lering and Potempa's visits to Bro. Ernst's office, for their daily Tar- dy Slips. The ole DeSoto just never quite makes it. Besides being quite a card shark, Gene has filled up some of his spare time by participating in football for two years, and baseball for three years. Although DON KANE arrived at Chaminade in his junior year, he has become quite a familiar face among the seniors. A dedicated fan of Hockey, Don spends a great deal of his time on Saturday after- noons before the TV set watching and cheering on the games. He was captain of the cheerleaders during the Football season, and Ilon has participated in track for the last two years along with the Pep Club and the staff of the last Junior Edition of the Cardinal and White. JERRY HILLNER is a feared man in Senior B, for nothing less than having broken quite an array of desks, trophies, and sta- tues. His extracurricular record at Chaminade, besides the perfec- tion of the fine art of destruction, includes participation in football and track in his sophomore year and membership in the Pep Club. JIM HEITERT, the man behind the radio controls at almost every school function, is, naturally, one of the bulwarks of the Radio Club. But besides having this distinction, Jim also was on the football squad in his freshman and sophomore years. Jim is also a member of the Pep Club. TONY DOHLE, recently named to the first-string of the Catholic League All-Star Basketball team, is, besides being one of the finest athletes in the school, unofficially the tallest student in the school, a dubious honor perhaps, but none- theless true. Besides playing bas- ketball, Tony has been very active in football and is also a member of the Pep Club. CARLOS GALVAN, the pride of the afternoon English class, witha reputation for sententious re- marks, is another champion in the ping-pong tournament. He was a mfember of the basketball team in his sophomore year and partici- pated in track for the past three years. Carlos was also a member of the Glee Club in his junior year. CHARLES STOCK, known about the campus for his bottomless sup- ply of jokes and his acrobatic skills, was one of the cheerleaders for the '58 basketball season. He will be engaged for the remainder of the year in preparation for the Flyer's baseball season. But base- ball isn't his only forte: having participated in football and basket- ball throughout his years at Cham- inade, Charlie will keep on going. LORAN SEBACHER'S presence at Chaminade is nothing less thana miracle since his desperate morn- ing flights across the St. Charles Bridge could make St. Christo- pher's head swim. These early- morning sprints may account for some of his athletic ability and sheer nerve demonstrated in his career in track and football. To be, or not to be-a boarder, that is-is TOM RAIN'S personal question. Between trips from the dormitory to his own home, he has managed to play football for two years, and participate on the track team, besides being one of the formidable contenders in the annual ping-pong tournament. JOHN MYSZAK is one of the most versatile athletes represented in the senior class, having played football for three years, basketball for four years, and baseball for three years. His appearances in Biology class with his constant pinto is a source of consterna- tion to Brother Moerchen. TERRY MOELLERING, repre- senting the North County, has spread himself out in regard to school activities. A four year mem- ber of the Sodality, Terry has also participated in track, photography club, Server's Club, and is one of the members of the noble army of Cardinal and White reporters. CHRIS' CORNER Hyland, having his usual heavy crop of hair, went into a barber- shop. Hair cut? the barber asked. Not now, said Rip, I just dropped in for an estimate. ll K i A pilot was flying a supersonic plane 700 miles an hour, then 800. then 900. He knew he shouldn't, but he kept increasing the speed. On he went, 950 . . 975 . . 1000 . . 1100 miles an hour. Oh, my God! exclaimed the pilot to himself. And a voice answered, Yes? 41 K ll Junior was gazing at his one- day-old brother who lay squealing and yelling in his cradle. Has he come from Heaven? asked Junior. Yes, dear, replied his mother. Junior: No wonder they threw him out.

Qril 2, 1958 CARDINAL AND WHITE Page Seven Lloyd Lead 5 Lloyd Klinedinst has been mak- ing history around Chaminade with his striking performance in the swimming pool. Lloyd came in first at state twice, receiving two first place medals: he won the 50 yard free style, and the 150 yard medley. Lloyd was also instrumental in getting the newly organized swim- ming team started. The team met twice weekly, on Monday and Thursday nights. practicing until a standard of perfection was met. Its members competed in all divi- sions. In the first meet of the season, the Flyers of the pool swam against CBC's team. They were, BASEBALL - TRACK As in track, the baseball team has had its growth stunted by the snow. Its first game, scheduled for the week of March 17-21, had to be postponed. But last Friday the Flyers got off to an excellent start, defeating St. Mary's 5-3. However, also as in track, the general situation is excellent. Some of the varsity lettermen who will probably be returning are Stock Cpitcher, short- stopl, Owens Cpitcherl, Saguto fcatcherl, and Perry fcenter fieldj. With the return of weather suitable for practice, the players, under Mr. Henry Buffa's coaching, are shaping up into a championship team. The entire track and baseball picture for Cham- inade this year is very good indeed. As for us, the student body, let's not let the enthusiasm of the basketball season melt away with the spring thaw. Varsity Flyers Win Post-Season Honors Two members of the first-string varsity basketball team have recently won city-wide recognition for accomplishments in their favorite sport. Late in February, Juan Perez had been named KXOK's Prep Player of the Week, and as such. was invited to attend the annual banquet honoring all recipients of this award. But new and unex- pected honors awaited him the night of the ban- quet, for he was elected to a second place ranking in the Prep Player of the Year competition. Sandy Pomerantz of U. City took first place. Judges for this rating were basketball officials and sports writers of the city. On March 22, Skip Viragh put on a show of sharpshooting accuracy and walked away with first place honors in the annual free-throw contest spon- sored by Stix, Baer and Fuller. Swim Squad understandably, frustrated in this first attempt at victoryg final score, 67-14. The team was successful in its second meet, swimming all over the competing team, Ladue Coun- try Club. 45-38. The Flyers were to swim against St. Louis U. High in their final meet of the year: however the meet was potsponed at the last minute and then dropped. Winners of varsity letters were Klinedinst and Leggat. Chaminade sent Klinedinst, Hina, Hanley, llethloff, Leggat, and Jacobi to the state preliminaries, but Lloyd alone qualified, and went on to win his medals. Until recently, Cha1ninade's budding track team was forced to confine its spring training to the gym, due to the unseasonable weather. But, with the real coming of spring, track practice began in earnest. The varsity Flyers, coached by Brothers Ray Doorack and Cyril Boschert, show promise, but will take a few weeks to get back in the groove. Returning lettermen are Jim McGowan on the pole vault, and Paul and Pete Knese on the hurdles. The track itself, found to be caked with inches of mud, was the first project to be attacked and disposed of by the team. New hurdles were or- dered, and all is in readiness for the opening of the track season-all except the weather. Brother Ralph Krull is back, of course, coaching his prep team. Good luck to coaches and players, and the wishes of all the student body go with them for a trium- phant season. Tony Dohle receives game ball Mlh place awardl for Chamlnade in Clayton Regionals.
