He feels the key to training a team is hustling, conditioning and improving daily attitude. Coach Knickelbine emphasizes playing experience instead of just winning games. He feels the most important factor is using as many players as possible during each game. Coach Knickelbine feels that the purpose of a J .V. baseball program is to groom the younger players for the future. In the coach's words, The greatest satisfaction any coach can achieve is in the quality of the end product of the attempt at helping young men develop into well trained, self-disciplined individuals? With 13 games to play this year, the J.V. team had not played their first game by the March 5 yearbook deadline. 165

Girls Show Pride b Participating in Track, Field Participating in track and field for the second year at Es- cambia, the girls have helped the team be as successful this year as they were last year. Miss Ann Odom, team coach, has shown the girls how to improve themselves in track and field and how to be a good sport during and after a meet. The team practiced hard after school everyday, along with the boys, to achieve superiority over the other schools. Competing in four track meets, the girls build themselves up for competition in the annual Invitational Track Meet held in the Rebel Bowl.
