20 SENIOR BOOSTER A REVIEW OF THIS SCHOOL YEAR ' S ATHLETICS Manual ' s teams have done very well during the past school year. Our teams have won no championships, but our opposition in all games knew they were up against something. We will endeavor to give a summary of the sports for the last school year. Our football team made a good showing with eight wins, one tie, and one loss. The first game was played between two Manual teams. Zip captained one team, and Huber, the other. The teams finished with seven points each. Our team was made up of some of the following men : B. Courim, Huber, Noll, L. Hutton, C. Courim, Malone, Littlejohn, Snodgrass, Higgs, Cecil, Kellermeyer, Neale, Snowball, E. Hutton, Cochrane, Harmeson, Merrick, Rose, Mussmann, Lively, Vollrath, Woerner, Anderson, Roessner, Prokl, and Stoeffier. Our team tied up with Brazil with 20 points each in the first game on Irwin field. The team journeyed to Wabash and Zip passed to Higgs from the ten-yard line for the only touchdown. Newcastle took a good flop on their field to a count of 32 to 2. Peru fell to a tune of 31 to on Irwin field in the fourth game. Our team traveled to Evansville and took their measure, 3 to 0. Zip place-kicked for the three markers. The team then went to Anderson and administered a walloping to that team, 109 to 0. Sadness then hit the Manual camp for Tech knocked us with a 52 to score. Greenfield went down 45 to on Irwin field for a revenge. Shortridge was defeated in our last game 13 to 0. Our basketball team opened its season just before the close of the football season in a game with Broad Ripple at their gym. We lost a close one 26 to 25 in the last moment of the game. Greencastle came over to our gym and knocked our lads with 20 points to our 9. Poor foul shooting during the season lost sev- eral games. Franklin gave our team a good cleaning with a score of 42 to 12 in their gym. Frankfort was next met in their gym and another downfall of the red and whites occurred. Frankfort made 62 while our team registered 24. Ben Davis fell by one point 27 to 26 in our next home game, and then Kokomo was defeated by a score of 37 to 36 in our gym. The Alumni team soaked our lads in the next game. Anderson then evened up the football score with a 53 to 20 score. Southport, future sectional champions, defeated our boys 30 to 24 in their gym. Columbus took our count on their floor by a score of 32 to 13. Manual lost fighting to the splendid Tech team 24 to 22 in our second city series game. Shelbyville liked our floor and looped them in for a victory. Shortridge stepped out in the second half and our team fell down. The result : 20 to 22 in favor of the North Siders. On a two-day trip Bloomington defeated our team with a 40 to 20 score and Bedford won with 42 to 21. Browns- burg took our count with 27 to 24 on our floor. Hopewell split our plans at Franklin, and we lost 39 to 22. In the sectional Shadeland went down with a score of 20 to 11 in a poor game. Ben Davis fell the next morning 22 to 18. Tech then spoiled our hopes Saturday afternoon 27 to 23. The first call for track went ou the eleventh of March. One hundred and thirty-eight boys turned out. Connersville went down for the first time in a dual meet for four years. The score was 50 to 49. The Manual team journeyed to Kokomo and lost to the State Champtions of 1924 by a large score. The Manual squad then put it over Martinsville and Shortridge in a triangular meet the next day. Our team took second the next day in another triangular meet at Brazil with Brazil and Greencastle. Noblesville took our tracksters ' count at Willard Park. Five of our men went to Gary, but no places were taken. Culver Military Academy pounced on our team at their track and we lost. In the sectional six men, Malone, McCallister, Hutton, Rubush, Marshall, and Prior, won the right to enter the State, but we unfortunately received no points in the State track meet. The first call for baseball, issued on March 11, was answered by a large num- ber of boys. The team took Southport with a score of 9 to 1 on the Southport diamond. Shadeland suffered a 17 to 1 loss at the hands of the Manualites in the second game. Lawrence took our boys by a score of 3 to 2 in our third game. New Augusta sunk before the Manual swatters 23 to in the fourth game. Greenfield lost to our lads 3 to 2 in a thirteen-inning affair. Shortridge then went down before our team 3 to 0. Technical then took our measure 2 to 1 in a fine game on the Tech field. As this went to press early, no later reports could be taken, but we are proud of our baseball team.
