C. H. S. Is Winning — and Losing Craig Beam proudly displays a ribbon that he won in a cross country meet. C.H.S. offers a varied program of athletic sports for boys which helps to instill in them good sportsmanship. Wrestling, a sport for both individ- ual and team action, is the newest sport added to sports activities. Baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, swimming, and tennis are other sports that are played competitively among schools. An intramural program for both boys and girls is furnished for students who are enthusiastic about sports. The girls ' program is more extensive since they do not play out of school. Swimming, volley ball, basketball, bowling, and ping pong are offered to the girls. Boys carry on a tourna- ment in basketball as their intramural program. As competition between classes, the seniors challenge the junior boys to a tug-of-war. This is a great rivalry in the spring to see which class is better, but both the classes always have their own idea about that. The losing team is rewarded by being pulled through a spray from a fire hose. The athletic program at C.H.S. creates the will to win and the stamina to lose among the partici- pating students. This is a typical sight during basketball season in Memorial Gymnasium. 18
