Donald Heap and Bob Leaf have been running mates at the forward positions throughout their High School careers. Both of the boys played for two years together on the Lightweight five and this year gradu- ated to the Heavyweight ranks, where they were well up in the scoring columns. Babe McGowan, also, has seen two years of Light- weight service and one year Heavyweight.

Art Taylor, Hilde Walgren, and Bill Levis have all done good work for Evan- ston, but the nine semester rule ended their playing at the end of the first semester. The prospects for a good team next sea- son are very bright, for Captain Tiviy Goa- cher and Chuck Munson of this year ' s varsity will be back, while several capable players will come up from the Lightweight ranks. On the Lightweight squad Herb Lundahl, Art Laage, Norm Freeman, Jimmy Kittle- man, and Dick Brown of the class of ' 30 played a good game all season.

The squad, although for the most part seniors, was a green one, and faired rather badly during the season, but all of the players always showed the fighting Wildkit spirit. Captain Dave Johnson proved himself to be a capable leader as well as a plunging fullback. Jim Bowman, who was probably the most experienced player on the squad, was out most of the season with an injured back, while Don Heap, Lennart Engstrom and Carl Davis were also on the hospital list part of the time. In the line Evanston was fortunate in having George Ebeling, and Bob Hoel, both of whom were named on the coach ' s All-Suburban League eleven. Harold Davidson, of the backfield, also de- serves special recognition for the wonderful game he played against New Trier. Time after time Davy would slide off tackle for a big gain, and then on the next play would hurl a long pass to one of his sprinting ends. Next year ' s eleven will probably be built around Stewy Merrell and Jack Sullivan, who proved to be valuable offensive players during this year ' s campaign. The other members of the class of ' 30 who were on the squad are Howard Allen, Kurt Miericke, Joe Czerwonky, Bud Mc- Namee, Les Wood, Bill Levis, Jack Fogarty, Dwight Foster, Hess, Vickerman, Russell Lane, Vincent Thoma, Rae Murdock, Curtis Simmons, Howard Kroehl, Harry Eisner, and Gerard Fogarty.

Back Row — George Fugitt, Jack Banks, Arthur Frank, James Bowman, Warren Fisher, Robert France, Kenneth Mertz Front Row — William McCurdy, Chester Taylor, William Fee, Monroe Van Gunten, William Schilling, Bruce Dona ldson, Edward Holtz, Arnold Fogarty SWIMMING 1930 With this year ' s senior class Evanston is losing several of the greatest swim- mers of whom it has ever been her good luck to boast. During his four years at High School it has always been Chip Tay- lor ' s ambition to trim Lennox of Oak Park. He did it this year in swimming the ioo- yard breast stroke in his fastest time, 1:15.2. George Fugitt has been Taylor ' s swimming mate throughout the four years. In the back-stroke Evanston has a record- breaker. James Bowman is now swimming for the Chicago Athletic Association and is taking his races regularly. He holds the Suburban and Cook County record. Jack Banks is Bowman ' s swimming mate and has turned in a creditable career of High School swimming. In the free-style Bill McCurdy, a 40-yard and relay man is a very conscientious swim- mer. McCurdy is a consistent point win- ner. Kenneth Mertz is a free styler and has been one of the main stays of the relay team for four years. George Beach, who dived his first three years, swam free style this year. Carl Davis swam his first three years and then this year was injured playing foot- ball. He swims free style also and took part in the Suburban Meet. Ed Holtz, breast-stroker, has done some good work during his years at school. Dwight Foster, back-stroker, swam for three years, ending his swimming at the end of his junior year. William Eadie has also worked hard and deserves recognition. This year ' s senior team lived up to ex- pectations by taking the Suburban league Championship for the fourth successive year. Page Seventeen
