TENNIS Left to right: james Howell Bill Hintze. Kneeling, left to right: Jean Snipes, Melba Rademacher, Mar- ilyn Whiteside. Standing: Marlana Kroger, Bar- bara Beffa, Shirley Hinkle, Aleene Anderson. Although the 1954 tennis team did not win very many of its matches, it is hoped it gained some invaluable experience. In spite of some very strong valley competition this year, the team at all times exhibited good sportsmanship and a fine competitive spirit. Bob Hintze and Barbara Beffa were elected honorary captains. With Ken Dueker, jean Snipes, Bob and Barbara re- turning, the team should give a good account of itself next year. 7 Ken Dueker, David Howerton,

The 1954 track season started on the ninth of March with 65 candidates ready to go for the first turnout. Of these men approximately 50 made up the varsity squad with the remainder taking on B squad duties. A fine team spirit was shown throughout the season. Highland opened up with a dual meet with Sunny- side on the second of April, beating the Grizzlies 71 to 44. Two weeks later the Scotties were edged out of a triangular meet with Cle Elum and Naches: Cle Elum On May 16 the, Scotties fell to the strong Ellens- burg team 74-48 in a dual meet. At Wapato the fol- lowing week, Highland lost 51-50 in a meet in which the pole vault event was left out, therefore keeping the Scotties from gaining any more points. In the final meet Highland downed three of the valley schools to win a four way meet at Selah ac- cumulating 61 points. The other three teams were Naches, Toppenish and Selah. In the Sub-district meet held in Yakima the Scot- ties took fourth and placed Dale Leach and Delane Smith in the District Meet on the following week. Dale Leach won the District High Hurdles event and went on to the State meet in Pullman, in which he placed fifth for State Honors. Dale Leach was elected by his teammates to be honorary captain for the year, while Don Scheuffele was elected inspirational award winner for the team.
