In the past few years our squads have won every meet except one. They finished third in the state, and second in the city meet. This year was no exception, beaten in the second one of the season by Parker, the seniors came back to win most of the remaining contests on the schedule, including Parker whom they defeated this time to the tune of 59-ll. Marvin Aurelius and Tony Wagner were the leading swimmers this year, winning most of their races. Mr. Knight with a host of lettermen returning from this year's squad should continue to have one of the leading units in the city. HENRY HUMMEL, 4A, Sports Editor D 29 ft

DE HAMER CAPTAINS l Fenger basketball teams this year were captained by two able boys. Iohn De Hamer led the Seniors, while lack Maurer had the Iuniors in his command. lack is in his senior year and will graduate in lune while Iohn, a junior, will graduate in February, 1946. Both boys have been regulars for the last two seasons, having earned two letters. ir THE SENIORS I Fenger's senior Basketball team this year was a little on the dreary side. With only one letter man returning, Dimrny had to start from scratch. Englewood C34-275 was the only league victory for our seniors. Mess- maker, Godshall, Logan, Zick, Reglesky, and De Hamer earned letters this year. With all of the seniors returning except Reg- lesky and Zick and with the tour first string luniors moving up, our seniors should have a well balanced team next year.

Many enoyable activities have taken place dur- ing the semester: the first events vgere the Valentine's Dance and the St. Patrick's Dance for you hep-cats, bicycle hikes, splash parties for the mermaids. Another great sport was held at the Rose Bowl: but, oh my, some girls have all the luck. Why must I always get a gutter ball? A semester would not be complete without a G.A.A. assembly, or a May Festival. This is a beautiiul event with the Queen, her court, and f ushers dressed in beautiful formals. , 5 fx., President Iessie Vander Meer called the meet- 5 ' k if I ings to order, then the minutes were read by the secretary, Virginia Sprietsma, and the dues were collected by Phyliss Hoglund.
