BASKETBALL This season our boys showed quite an improvement over last year's team. Although the A team did not seem to fare so well, the B's made a very good record for themselves, finishing second in the league. Prominent members of the B team were: Wesley Haskell, who often thrilled the crowd by making long and difficult shots from the middle of the court: Frank Adrian, Guard: Ray- mond Cadlolo, Forward: and Louis Petrucci. All were good consistent players. Members of the A team were: Edwin Hegwer, Iohn Carrico, Harold Seaquist, Charles Mouridian, and David Cowles. TRACK Our track team has been very successful this Year. The boys started the season with a bang by winning their first meet, which was held at Manteca. For this feat they received two beautiful trophies. At the annual track meet at Davis, the boys again put up a good performance. Although competing against twenty-three schools in the class C division, the team managed to get lO points which put them in a tie for fifth place. The point winners in the meet were: Wilbur Reynolds, first place in the High lumpy Alfred Sorrenti, fourth place in the 440 Yard Dash. Both boys received medals for their efforts. Outstanding mem- bers and high point winners in their respective classes were: High lump, Ray- mond Cadlolo, Emmanuel Pranceschetti, Wilbur Reynolds: Dashes, Alfred Sor- renti, Raymond Cadlolo, and Louis Petruccip Hurdles, Peter Hall: Football Throw, lames Hanson, Broadjump, Harold Se-aquistg Distance Races, Edwin Hegwer and Bruce Cochran. TENNIS There must have been something unusual in the air this year because more students were interested in tennis than have been in the past five years. Under the direction of Mr. Whitlock, a tournament was arranged for both the boys and the girls. The tournament consisted of a number of rounds in which the winner of each round played until he was defeated. Those who played in the semi-finals were Iames Hanson, Don Barton, and Edwin Long. The final match was played between Edwin Long and Donald Barton and was won by Barton, who thereby became boys' tennis champion. e252

GIRLS' SPORTS Here are some of the scenes which l remember from the review of girls' sports of this year. The first game of the season was speedball. There were flashes of many exciting games-games played under the direction of Miss Mancini, seventh period gym class teacher, and Miss Stockholm, eighth period teacher. Snaps taken in the spring showed girls playing tennis. l remember a few very good backhand strokes, but more very bad swings and misses-which the cam- era caught: however, the last action pictures showed cr marked improvement in the girls' ability-an improvement which will probably be even more noticeable next year, since this is the first year tennis for many of the girls. Kathryn Black and Frances Konrath seem to be the players who are heading toward champion- ships. How well did those pictures of the girls doing the duck walk and other muscle bending exercises recall the groans and moans which filled the halls with melody during those days. One of the most important spring sports which was shown was basketball. The other important sport was baseball. Many thrilling games were shown. Numerous good plays in volleyball were shown. The girls who seemed to be outstanding in girls' sports for the year Were: Wanda Britt, Dorothy Degerman, Mary Powers, Peggy Lehman, Lenore Long, Evelyn Altamirano, Violet Petrucci, Marjorie Seaquist, Gladys Vilen, Catherine San Iulian, Gene Jackson, Audrie Pope, Olga Vallerino, Frances Gonzales, Leona Dilley, Floy Trager, Lena Wakefield, Helen Altamirano, Alice Lundquist, Bernita Cadlolo. 44 26 wb
