THNE lCARlDI'NAL A T H L E T I +C 'S ' BASEBALL SEASON IN REVIEW The Fall Baseball team of Cissna Park proved quite a surprise to everyone. Losing 5 men of the previous year's first team, everyone was prepared for a poor season. The local niners, however, came through a win- ning season with a record of 4 wins and 2 losses and in so doing built up a team batting average of .362, a very high average in baseball circles. The Armstrong game, seventh on the Cissnaschedule, ended in a 2-2 tie at the end of the eighth inning. Kenneth Baier and Ben Feller carried the bulk of the pitching as- signments and the remainder of the team was composed of Gilbert Bren- ner, Jerry Hari, Glenn Zbinden, Ray Steiner, Arlyn Lober, Don Morton, Wendall Baumgartner, and Jack Brown. Statistics show that Ben Feller and Kenneth Baier ended the sea- son with similar pitching records, each having won 2 games and lost 1 for an average of 667.
