THE CARDINAL EVERETT HOUSENGA CGuardD Lanky was perpetually ready for the worst of them, for being of almost gigantic build, he has never met his match. The opponents got very few rebound shots when Lanky was playing guard, for he was an expert at picking the ball off the bounding board and getting it started toward his own goal. He, also, is a Senior whose non-return will put another kink in the squad. HOWARD YOUNG CGuardj Hod played a good game at standing guard, especially during the first of the season. Later he was handicapped by sickness, after which it was difficult for him to come back full of pep. Without a doubt, Hod will be a substantial asset to the team next year. ANTON WILLIAMSON CForwardJ I Tony was a fast offense man, with a good eye for the basket, as was demonstrated by his action in the games in which he took part. Much can be expected of Tony next season 3 in fact, it is safe to say that he will be one of the foremost men of the squad. CURTIS MILLER fForwardJ Curt is small, but his speed makes up for his lack of size. Inasmuch as he has a very fine eye for the basket, it is inevitable that he will do his share of scoring next year. HOWARD RIORDON CGuardJ Fat had but little chance this year. However, he will be back for two more seasons and should make a good man. LYLE YOUNG CGuardJ Young was another sub who was given little opportunity, but he also will back next fall, at which time he will, no doubt, come to his own.

THE CARDINAL Basketball Banquet The Annual Basketball Banquet was given on Friday, March 27, in honor of the boys who worked so faithfully throughout the year to keep up the fine athletic standing of our school. Under the direction of Miss Anderson, the Domestic Science girls elaborately decorated the room and table in cardinal and white, and served faultlessly a delicious four-course dinner. Later in the evening Coach DiVall presented to each of the boys a large Cardinal and White E, along with rippling measures of friendly advice. Tracke 41925 As for Track work, Erie High is literally in the very stages of infancy, for hitherto, this has been a latent possibility in the school. However, when eagerness to participate was demonstrated by the boys, the needed apparatus was instantly secured, such as a javelin, a discus, and a shot. The Manual Training boys re- paired the jumping standards, dug the jumping pit, hauled sawdust wherewith to fill it, and measured off the track. When these preliminaries were completed, training was begun in earnest. The boys improved rapidly and some of them are now making very good records, which they hope to improve upon by the end of the season. Up to date, but one meet has been attended at which very satisfactory records were established as follows: Javelin, Housenga, 147 ft. 7 in., H. Young, 137 ft. 6 in., Shot, Housenga, 32 ft. 6 in., LaRue, 31 ft. 4 in., High Jump, LaRue, 4 ft. 11 in., H. Young, 4 ft. 8 in., Broad Jump, LaRue, 18 ft. 10 in., Discus, H. Young, 84 ft. 10 in., Housenga, 76 ft. 8 in., 50 yd. Dash, Arnett, 5 4-5 seconds, 100 yd. Dash, LaRue, 11 1-10 seconds. The Squad goes to Sterling, May 9, for which event the boys are rounding into fine shape with the hope of capturing several first honors. NW
