IS'.a.y'4, :P4wJtw in 43 January l 943 June l943 HOPE TRACKSTERS AGAIN ARE SECOND LASALLE TOOK FIRST BY 29-30THS OF A POINT After finishing second in the state indoor meet, the Hope track team went on to the out- door season. All the regulars of the indoor season donned their uniforms again for the spring session. Under the excellent coach- ing of Ed Petorella the Hope team placed second in the Kingston meet held at Rhode Island State College. Jim Rob- ertson annexed the mile run without much trouble. Jim is captain of the team and this is his third year of varsity com- petition. Baptiste won the high jump in his usual good form. Other outstanding members of the team are as follows: half- milers, Swanson and Dorgang quarter-milers, Black and Lu- ber: dash men, Huntley, Ma- bray, Downes: hurdlers, Ma- bray, Swanson, Gaul: high jumpers, Baptiste, Johnson, Young, Mabray, Fisk, Gaul: broad jumpers, Black, Robert- son, Young: javelin throwers, Hodosh, Cashman, Kariang shot putters, Hodosh, Karian, Cashman: discus throwers, Ho- dosh, Karian, Pearson, Cash- man: hammer throwers, Reid and Karian: pole vaulters, Len- non and Howard. The last meet of the year is the Legion meet, which Hope won last year. BERT SNYDER ONLY FINALIST IN MEET Bert Snyder in the 126 pound class turned in the best performance in the state wrest- ling meet this year. Snyder was the only Hope man to reach the finals, where he was defeated. Yanku represented Hope in the 155 pound class. Lobel and McGreen both reached the semi-finals in the 110 and 118 pound class, re- spectively. Toby Stapleton had the misfortune to draw the cham- pion the first time. Toby nearly pinned him, but his op- ponent nnally got the best of him and went on to win the State championship. HOPE SIX PLACES SECOND IN FINAL PLAY-OFFS AFTER TAKING FIRST PLACE IN LEAGUE BASKETBALL TEAM coMPETmoN, TEAM wAs enero BY LA SALLE HAS TOUGH LUCK DURING SEASON The Hope basketball team this year certainly had some bad streaks of luck. The team lost two games by one point and a couple of others by two and three point margins. Hope lost to La Salle, 30- 29. and to Pawtucket East, 23-22. These two games were heartbreakers, and they were decided in the last few seconds of play. ln one of the pre- season games Hope beat St. An- drews 37-23 to break a twen- ty-two game winning streak by this team. The outstanding players of the team were McGovern, Wil- by, Norton, Kavanaugh, Corri- gan, Cameron, and Youhess. All these men played excellent ball. Next year's team looks very promising because almost all these men are going to be in Hope next winter. Under the able direction of Coach Schein, they are bound to come through. We hope they will have better breaks than they had this year. l,l.. -i The Hope Hockey team en- joyed a very successful season this winter. After finishing on top of the whole league, with fourteen points, they went on to beat Mt. St. Charles two straight games in the play-offs, only to lose to La Salle two games to one in the final play-offs. In the regular season Mt. St. Charles toppled Hope. In the semi-finals. however, Hope was never behind the Mounties. The blue sextet licked them two straight games, 6-4 and 4-l. In the final play-oif series. Hope was downed 3-4 in the Iirst game, which was indeed a thriller. Hope opened the game by scoring two quick goals, but La Salle bounced right back to score three in succession. After Hope had tied the score, La Salle hit pay dirt once again, to win. In the second period of the second game Hope was trailing 4-l. However, the boys in blue surged back and won, 5-4. This was a very good example of the fighting spirit Mr. Mul- len inspires in his men. It INEXPERIENCED NINE STARTS SLOWLY, THEN PICKS UP This year's baseball team did not quite come up to the standard of last year's cham- pionship nine. Many key men were lost by graduation-Cob vese, D'Arrezzo, Norton, New- ton, Moran. Muddiman and Cobb were also lost to the team because of their enlistment in the armed services. Only O'Sullivan, Keough, Fraser and Becker played regular on last year's squad. However, Mr. Mullen formed his new team around these holdovers and three seniors who had never participated before, plus some juniors and sophomores. On the pitcher's mound Bill Fraser, who played last year, did most of the hurling. He was aided by Muro. Gersten- .blatt, Speers, and Parker. At catch, Ed Becker did an out- standing job all season. Ted O'Sullivan, who last year did not make an error until the last game of the year, very ably held down iirst. The other inlielders are not so well deflned. Saccucci, Harper, Falk and Karembelas all alternated among the positions-second base. short, and third. On the outfield, the positions were held down by Keough, Bucci, and Kilmartin. The East Provi- dence team, which was very high in league competition, just barely edged Hope l-0. Fraser pitched brilliantly, but the East Providence man pitched a one-hitter which clinched the victory. It was one of the best ball games of the season. takes a good deal of fight to make up a three-goal deficit. The climax of the whole season came on Saturday night. the date of the linal game of the series. Practically the whole Hope student body turned out for the contest. La Salle started the ball rolling by scor- ing three times. Hope came back in the second and scored one. They were, however, un- able to tally after that, because of the brilliant goal tending of La Salle's Art Hoey. The nnal score was Hope l, La Salle 3. , On the All-State Hockey first team, Hope placed one man, Jack Kilmartin. Jack played brilliantly all season and he certainly deserved the position as all-state wing. Ted O'Sullivan and Dick Cobb se- cured positions on the second team and Muddiman was on the third team. Every one of these players was outstanding. Ted not only was a good rilay- er, but he also kept the lwws in there fighting because of his spirit. Bryant, Gifford, and Cummings received honorable mention. BADMINTON TEAM WINS TEN IN A ROW Under the direction of Mr. Mullen and Mr. Davis, the Hope Badminton team became the undisputed city champion. The Hope team blanked Cen- tral in its first match 5-0. Then, taking on a tougher Mt. Pleasant team, they again won 5-0. Under the leadership of Miles Parker, who has played for three years on the team. the boys played very well. The other singles men were Thom- as and Karembelas. The first doubles team was Foster and Robinson. and they were un- beatable. Rakusin and Einstein made up the second doubles I team.
