ATHLETICS. Basketball, baseball, and track work have had a banner year, thanks to those members of the faculty, who unselfishly devoted their time and efforts toward bringing about this successful termination. I he fighting spirit, for which our school is noted, showed itself most prominently this year in our basketball team. Their record is something to be proud of, for it is evident that our rivals fared far worse than we did. Baseball too, was in the limelight last season, for this sport was received with greater enthusiasm, and interest than was expected. The snappy team work displayed by our ball tossers won the admiration of their opponents. But for a few set backs the team worked with clocklike regularity. The “pep” and dash were there in both stickwork and fielding although occasional “off days” sometimes smothered their spirits. In our school, track work is in its infancy, for the majority of the students are not acquainted with it. In future years, it is hoped that with the work going on to stimulate interest among students, track work will be of a standard equal to, if not excelling other branches of athletics. I hus as old Father Time slowly lowers the curtain over the scenes of our athletic activities we can sit back with proud and contented hearts- EDWARD POJEDINEC ’20. thirteen
