THE NINETEEN THIRTY-SIX RETRO V Junior l-ligh Athletics The Champaign Junior High School Athletics are supervised by Mr. Lester Moyer. Mr. Baker has charge of the boys' physical education classes. Miss Quarles and Miss Meneely have charge of the girls' physical education classes. Under the supervision of these teachers the classes have been able to make remarkable progress in such sports as volley ball, basketball, baseball Cand wrestling for the boysb. These teachers also deserve credit for directing fine intramural tournaments. We feel that the Champaign Junior High School has one of the most out- standing Junior High coaches in the state. Orval Strode has produced very fine football and basketball teams. Under his supervision these teams have fought many a hard battle. A word of praise also goes to the managers who have helped to make this year's sports a success. The managers were Aaron Baker, Thomas Wise, Thomas Mcllflillin, and Charles McDaniel. It was the duty of these managers to see that the equipment was in order, to check out the uniforms, and see that the locker room was in order. The cheerleaders also served faithfully, and when a cheer was needed they were always at hand. These leaders were Jean Gilmore, Ralph Eckerstrom, Betty Brown, and Thomas McMillin from the ninth grade. There were also two eighth grade cheer leaders, Irene Southwood and Elmer Stringfellow. War- ner Adams and Keith Smith were chosen from the seventh grade. The cheer leaders were 'aut all the home games and were successful in keeping up the school spirit. WW fi 15?

They had a very hard season, and held their opponents to very low scores and scoreless ties. Only one team scored against them in the varsity games, and the season ended with a .1000 rating, The last game of the season, with Mattoon, proved to be the one that showed the outstanding points of the team. The team worked its way up and down the field, but it seemed as though neither team could score. Both teams showed good defensive traits. and when the final gun was sounded the score stood 0 to 0. This remarkable game brought the football season to a thrilling climax.
