After enjoying a most successiul '59 season during which his charges won two triangulars, three duals, and seconds in both the Fox Valley Conference and the Valley Relays, Coach Del Stacy appeared skeptical about the new campaign. Could it be because heavy point-getter Darrell McArthur plus several other reliables had moved on? Nevertheless, seventy-five likely looking prospects, including nineteen lettermen, were on deck for opening drills. Senior lettermen were Dan Meiss and Pat Brunet, halt-milers: Lon Rauls, high jump and high hurdles: Mike Murphy and Tom Cutler, weights: Gary Loucks and Caeser Cibik, pole vault: and Frank Mesner, mile. Iunior lettermen reporting were Larry Mueller, pole vault: Tom Stevens, high hurdles: lim Gilmore, 440 and relays: Dick Bender, weights. The two sophomore lettermen returning were Rick Gilmore, who specializes in the 440 and relays, and the versatile speed- ster and broad jumper, Iim Lee, who recently underwent a serious knee operation and wasn't expected to compete this spring. However, Iim has made an amazing recovery and can be counted on to pile up points in the 100, 220, and broad jump. Because illness and jobs drastically cut into the overall strength ot the Cards, they got oft to a poor start against West Bend, losing 56-52. In the second outing, however, the Stacymen took the measure ot the strong Appletno and Neenah squads in a triangular. Outstanding were Iim Lee with three tirsts: Frank Messner, a winner in the mile: and both Dick Bender and Mike Murphy in the weights. In their third encounter, another triangular against Berlin and Ripon, our Cards were way out front when the rains came, forcing a cancellation. On May 3, the squad, per- forming below standard, bowed to Sheboygan North in a hairsplitter. Firsts were won by Mike Murphy, Pat Brunet. lim Gilmore, Lon Rauls, Caesar Cibik, Iim Lee, and by the sprint medley team consisting oi Rick Gil- more, lay Iohnson, Paul Frank, and Dave Miess. In the Fox Valley Conference Meet on May 15, our sprint medley team put on a thrilling record-breaking performance. The best the team could do, however, was sixth. A dual with Oshkosh, the State Qualifying Meet, and the Valley Relays are still on the docket. Coach Stacy and assistant Coach Harold Knueppel are still expecting big things from their chargers.

Baseball 3? -QP Top row: Dave Schwark, Danny Buss, Larry Wetzel, Bill Eiring, lim Kalk. Second row: Ron Brajdic, Bob Bestor, Tony Meade, Tom Erickson, Carl Schmidt, Chuck Brunau. Bottom row: Dick Wirtz, Bob Hochrein, lim Machsam, Tom Soukup, Ierry Floyd, lim Schmidt. With only tivo lettermen returningeirom a crack '59 squad, Coach Fritz Loutenschlager was laced with a tremendous task oi whipping together a winning combination. In all, fifty-nine enthusiastic aspirants reported to Coach Lautenschlager and Assistant Coach Woody Bilse. The championship '59 club compiled a neat l0-2 record in regular season play, and then won eight successive WIAA tour- nament games only to lose out to Oconomowoc, 3-2. in the State Finals. Lost from that superb nine are such stars as Bob Felda, Dick Bestor, Tim Hurst, and pitcher extraordinary, Hub King, who posted a spectacular 33-2 over-all record in high school and American Legion competition including several no-hitters. Cold. rainy weather has not only hindered the conditioning oi the '60 squad but has already caused several postponements. However, in games to-date, our Cards have split in a home and home series with Menasha St. Mary's, 7-12 and 7-5, gained a split in a doubleheader against Oshkosh, 7-2 and 2-3, and dropped a doubleheader to Manitowoc by the identical scores ot 3-1. Although Dave Schwark has been meeting the ball consistently, boosting a near 500 average, the ability to hit with regu- larity has been the real bugaboo ot the Card nine. Pitching, with Karl Schmidt and Iim Kalk shouldering most of the burden, has been improving with each game. Completing the mound staii are Dan Buss and Bill Eiring. Doing the greater share of the backstopping has been Randy Hop- ton. Bob Bestor, and Ron Bradic. Infield chores has been in the hands oi Larry Wetzel, Tom Soukup, Chuck Bru- nau, and Dick Wirtz, and rounding out the outfield are Dave Schwark, lim Schmidt and Bob Hochrein. The util- ity problem gives Coach Lautenschlager no worry as Iim Macksam and Tony Meade are everready for the infield or outfield respectively. With continued good pitching plus some improvement at the plate, the Cards can still turn the '60 regular sea- son into a winner. Also, with the WIAA tournament opening on May 16 against Kewaskum at Fairgrounds Park, our Fondy nine could cut a real swath in the ies- tivities-perhaps win the iinal one this year. M.
