Harold Smith, an inlielder, was also a member ot last year's squad. Among the new players who have showed up best are Marvin Vander Band, C, Erwin Lankowski, OF, Iack Nelson, 2nd B. What the team lacks in material may be made up for by a willing, cooperative spirit. They are determined to give a good account of themselves in all of the games they play. Mr. Packard is coach.

Van Havenswaay, Groves, I Knott. PIOSpeClS for the 1944 T1'CICk Team have been very favorable till the time ot this writing. At the beginning of the season about 75 fellows turned out for practice, and at mid-season there were about 50 remaining on the squad. Bud Elve, the only letter man from last year, with Iohn Bogema, Bob Otfringa, Casimir Polkowski, and Calvzn Hykse were the only veterans left on the team. Prospects are that we will have a very lair season with a more experienced team and a good season in 1945. 51

Lankowski. The Basketball Team, although green, progressed throughout the season, and showed up excellently toward the end. The only returning letter man this season was Bob Weeber, who was the outstanding player of the season. There is the possibility that six letter men, Ken Harshberger, Robert L. Nelson, Calvin Ryske, Casmier Pollcowski, Wilber Beattie, and Harold Smith will return next year. Two varsity reserves, Ken McNeil and Harry De Vries, are also returning. This seems to indicate more than ever that Tech will have a good team next year. F, ' . af FRONT ROW: E. Van Ravenswaay, R. Zimmerman, H Hinkeri, Gr France, R. Ieltema.

The Tasks of the Athletic 1VICI1'1CIge1'S are many and varied. This includes taking inventory of all equipment before and after each season. Each time a meeting or a sports event is held the managers are the first to be there and the last to leave. There are always suits to be taken for repair, cleaning, and checking. During football season the boys have a job cleaning all shoes and helmets of mud. For their efforts they are awarded letters. lf you ask the players of any sport, baseball, track, basketball, or football, they will all agree these letters are well-earned. FRONT ROW: F. Fynewever, Mr. Bennett, adviserg D. Carpenter. BACK ROW' H. Hoogeveenp R. Nelson, R. Campbellg E, Cilly, D. Posthurna. The Vdrsi-T Club is an OI'gUI'liZCItiOI'l in which good sportsmanship is the major feature. This club requires its members to hold good scholastic standings and in doing this they are helping to keep the standards of the school at a high level. The T club lost three of its valuable members to an organization far larger than theirs. The United States Navy claimed Roman Kunecki, lack Syrek, and Ted Iarmuloski, former club president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. The club offers many thanks to Mr. Iohn Saur, new adviser, for his interest in and cooperation with the club. He filled position vacated by Mr. Byrum and Lt. Emery when they left Tech High. ff' FRONT ROW: R. Nelson, B. Elve, K. Iandernoa, R, Farnham, C, Rykse, F. Fynewever. SECOND ROW: L. Bush, H. Newcomb, H. Cargill, E, Lankowski, L.
