BASEBALL Sccoml Row: johnson, Frazier, Brinker, Kaufman, Voigts, Lowe, Sahr. From? Row: Rogodzinski, Beach, Snyder, Peters, E. Deck, Breitzmann, Crawford, Greenslade. ll Coach Hampton has again built a fine team around a large group of lettermen. With the entire infield and battery returning, the team is the strongest in many years. 1 This year's battery will probably be Wadington and Crawford, two veterans of last year, while the infield consists of Peters, first base, Greenslade, second baseg Rogodzinski, short-stop, and E. Deck, third base. The outfield is comparatively new to varsity com- petition, but Beach, Unger, and D. Deck, fill the requirements very well. Cook, Frazier, Snyder and Breitzmann 'have also seen much service during the year. f This picture didn't turn out so well because the chappie with the moustache swallowed the photograpber's birdie. The other derby-propper-upper is Mayor Bartlett. F i SENIOR YEAR BOOK 19 3 3

Martin, Reeves, Jennings, Coolsen, McGuire, Wells. The 1932-33 track team has kept well abreast of the other school teams in their success. In spite of poor indoor training facilities, the team closely challenged many well trained squads. Twice they were nosed out of victories over New Trier in the final event, and only the last two races in the State Meet assured Oak Park of a victory. The cross-country squad led the other School teams by winning the first League Champion- ship. This start aided the coaches in building up a powerful indoor team. 1 Below is a group of x9oo Tarzans.

ATHLETICS IN 19 3 2-33 HEN we look back over a year crammed with athletic success, athletic spotlight has focused on one championship after another, l two football, two basketball teams, and a cross-country team iii- have established an enviable record 1 ! jj , we see a glamorous climax of fifty years of advancement. The Pop Vance started the year by turning out a football machine that was undefeated. His team worked with the precision, accuracy, and power of the well known Juggernaut. The first game gave a poor impression, but after that, there was no doubt about its strength. Although Schurz held us to a tie, in successive games we defeated Morton 12-0, Proviso 12-7 , Deerfield 32-6, Oak Park 19-6, and New Trier 7-6 and emerged with the championship. Of the many first-class players on the squad, Sam Whiteside received the biggest honor, he was named as both'all-Suburban and all-State center. Frank, Wakeheld, Meigs, Siddall, and Dawson were the other Evanston men named on the all- Suburban team. The other teams' were also unusually successful. Although the Junior Varsity,hadn't won a game in the three previous years, its goal was. not crossed throughout the schedule. 1 Not to be outdone, the basketball team also won the Suburban Championship. Oak Park lost their League lead to Evanston after the February ineligibilitiesg then we piled up such a lead that even two beatings left us with a comfortable margin. Greenslade, Peters and Barnes in the front line and Frank and Crawford, a beautiful pair of guards, were hard to beat. The lightweights also won the championship. Griggs, at center, Jones, Smith and Williams at forward, land Frazier, Fogarty and Najdowski as guards made up a team that won ten succes- sive games. f Swimming, besides producing a fine team, developed several individuals. Among the best of these are George Spry, one of the country's best prep back- strokes and Jim Gilson, who won the State diving championship. Coaches Jones and Schultz succeeded in developing a well-balanced team that danger- ously threatened the winners in all its meets and placed second to Oak Park in the Indoor State meet. The team will keenly feel the loss of such stars as Haley, Engel, Thompson, McGuire, Martin, Barnes, Shumway, and Siddall. It only remains for the baseball squad to perform equally well. Since Morton, our baseball jinx, is no longer in the League, the chance is exceptionally good. These major sports are generally regarded as representing the athletics of the School, but they are less than half of a huge program. There are minor and intramural sports also. Tennis and golf both draw many enthusiasts while the intramural games have attracted boys. The most popular of these tourna- ments were basketball, boxing, and wrestling. The handball tournament and free-throw contest also proved interesting. This program is the basis of championship teams, in these games and on Freshman-Sophomore teams our Varsity material learns the game and gains valuable seasoning. It is this school-wide program that has made the biggest athletic sweep in the history of the school . ' f ,, -if is I A -1..flfI.- ' 18 83 THE EVANSTONIAN
