Captain Joe Schoeninger, who has been running for four years, was the most con- sistent point winner for the team, during both the indoor and the outdoor seasons. Joe ran the high and low hurdles, and was Evanston ' s only point winner at the North- western University indoor meet, scoring points in both of his events. In the low hurdles Evanston also had Jack Fogarty and Bud McNamee, who ran some pretty races. In the mile run Fred Giesecke carried the Orange and Blue, and although somewhat inexperienced did some good work. Ralph Keitel, who has been one of the team ' s outstanding sprinters during his four years, gave a good account of himself, as did Carl Tiedemann, who was the outstanding Orange and Blue performer in the 440-yard run. Bill McCurdy, who has been running all four years, was in the sprints and hurdles. There are also four men in the graduat- ing class that were point winners before the nine semester rule eliminated them from further competition. Jimmy Martin was an outstanding performer in the sprints and hurdles; Joe Shapiro and Harold Goers were in the weights; and Bob Hanawalt was a consistent point winner in the mile run. Page Eighteen

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

Back Row — Mr. Merrell (Coach), Robert Leaf, Charles Munson, Leslie Horder, Arthur Nyquist, James Lawrence, Robert Hoel, Howard Kroehl, Edwin Meese, Harold Davidson (Manager) Front Row— Aktmvv. Laage, Harry Eisner, Rae Murdoch, Tiviy GoAcher, William Schwanbeck, Donald Heap, Stuart Merrell, Jack Sullivan BASEBALL 1930 The senior class is well represented in base- ball this season, for three of the seniors are holding down regular jobs on the first team. In addition there are several members of the class who are mid-years, and, although they cannot play this year, they have starred dur- ing their eight semesters. Chief among the mid-years is Harold Dav- idson, who has had the distinction of playing on the regular team for four years. In his freshman year Davy played center field, but during the next three seasons he did slab duty successfully as first-string pitcher. Last year he was especially effective, and it was due in a large measure to his ability to turn in one- and two-hit games that the Wildkits tied for the title. Jimmy Williams, another mid- year, starred at third base last year, and held down the hot corner in fine style. Filling his place was one of Coach Merrell ' s big wor- ries at the beginning of the season. Jimmy Bowman was on the squad, and although not a regular he got a letter for his work last year. Red Schwanbeck is another senior who has played on the first team for four years. He played second base his first year, but for the last three he has been one of the mainstays of the team with his catching. Red is no mean hitter either. Donnie Heap played center field last year, but the vacancy at third forced him to change jobs, and now Don thrives on hot grounders and line drives. As a sideline, he pastes the apple at a rate well over .300. Leslie Horder, brother of the famous Rabbit of two years ago, takes care of right field in good shape, and nearly always comes up with a hit when it is needed to score a run or keep a rally moving. Howie Kroehl has been out for baseball for four years, and during the last two sea- sons has been on deck as utility man in case one of the regulars was injured. Although two juniors, Sullivan and Mun- son, take care of most of the pitching, Art Laage and Rae Murdoch have done good service as relief hurlers. Page Nineteen
