F ,J K I T 1 Varsity Baseball Although some people consider the robin as the harbinger oj Spring, the real sign is the crack of the bat, the flash of slidin vu E .ag- spikes, the Nstee-rike three call of the umpire. Spring in Amerie means Baseball. Baker-Victory's contribution to our national pastime is coached by Mr. Richard Barry and brings to the area the best of high school baseball. Smith Division squads usually meet our nine at Lachaf wanna Stadium. Here, despite ample seating, fans usually find i hard to stay in their seats as B. V. offers its array of superlatio plays ranging from shoe-string catches to clutch home runs. The team gives ample reason for B. V. sports aficionados to be proud and pleased. l .

inally, the best part of the game-totaling the scores and enjoying some well- arned snacks. Varsity Bowling The 1962-63 version of the Baker- Victory Bowling Braves did not meet with the success on the alleys that we would have liked it to as a team, but it did distinguish itself by the presence of several individual stars. Among these were Ralph Gmerek, who bowled the season high game with a 222, and fohn Misso with a 566 high set. Other high games bowled included Dave Deubell,s 220, john Misso's 213, and Mike Or- landols 207. Despite the fact that the team finished deep in the second division of the Monsignor Martin Catholic High School Bowling League, which met every Thursday at the Southside Lanes, it is felt that next year will see a decided change for the better. Row I-Michael Cusack, Ralph Gmerek, Robert Stachowiak. Row II -David Deubell, Coach Fr. Samuel, John Missa, Michael Orlando.
