This has been a fair season for baseball in that the coaching and training have been broken into by other events. However, the Tigers made a real try for the slope title. The team as a whole showed good baseball playing and is a credit to the year s athletics for the High School. There will be six men lost by graduation; but, with the old material remaining and the new aspirants coming out. a championship team should be developed next year. Page F i f t e e n ]
