The girls are required to pass a certain test before being allowed in the deep end of the pool. This test consists of diving and swimming the length of the pool. This is called the Red Cap Test, for only to those who successfully pass this test is granted the privilege of wearing a red cap, the mark of a good swimmer. Many other tests can be taken for which points are given, there being thirty- two points in all. Up to April, Florence Quitman was leading, with twenty points. The first interscholastic swimming meet for girls was held at our school with Woodward. The East High Girls won the meet, scoring fifty-five points, against Woodward's twenty-four points. The girls on the swimming team are: Elizabeth Bauer Helen Fuller Elizabeth Peters Tillie Bise Margaret Grayson Marjorie Stuntz Miriam Bollinger Grace Hoffman Phyllis Walker Marna Brady Helen Linder Jeannette Zettle Frances Murphy MARION GATES, '21.

I i 1 J 1 ii f : mruc THE EAST HIGH BASEBALL TEAM BOUT thirty players responded to the first call for baseball candidates, among whom were four veterans from last year, Moore, Shawhan, Rosenstiel, and Allen. Several handicaps were encountered at once. The East High athletic field was not in condition for work. Therefore games would have to be played on park grounds where no admission could be charged. How then could expenses be paid? Mr. Reuter and Manager Friendship answered this question by selling hundreds of pennants at a fair profit. As the school grounds cannot be used, the team has to practise at Evanston, about a mile away. But the boys are ready to take the tramp. After numerous try-out sessions, a formidable team was finally picked to represent East High. The outfield is composed of the two old reliables, Moore and Shawhan, and Woods, a promising fielder and base-runner. As to the in- field, it had to be built over. It consists of Evans, Clawson, Wohlwender, and Allen, who make up a good combination. The bulk of the pitching is taken care of by Clark, a south-paw from the freshman class. Ayer and Zaeh are relief hurlers. Rosenstiel is doing the catching. The first game at Newport resulted in a defeat with a score of four to three. Having held this well organized team to a small score kept the spirit of the players up. This defeat was followed by victory over Hughes, six to four, and Walnut Hills eight to four, which caused much rejoicing and better support from the student body. The next game was a see-saw affair with Woodward, finally ending in a victory for that school, by a score of twelve to ten. But being defeated did not lessen the players' faith in believing in the old adage, that a bad start makes a good endingf, Hence, their ambition to do faithful playing and a desire to be rewarded with the interscholastic Championship. Much credit for the team's success is due to Mr. Reuter, Mr. Peoples, and Man- ager Friendship. CAPTAIN ETHAN ALLEN, '22. 11751
