Nashville . . . . 43 I SOFTBALL The season of the fall of 1946 was a short but successful one for the Hoyleton Grade School softball team. VVe opened the season on a sour note when we lost our first game to Irvington by a score of 18-16. Then we won our first game from our neighbors, Trinity Lutheran School, 10-8. After this, we travelled to Irvington and gained revenge for our earlier defeat by beating them 16-11. In this game, Kent nd Orville hit home runs. VVe closed our season by again beating Trinity. This time the score was 19-18 in our favor. Billy Christian was our pitcher in all four games,-and won 3 while losing only 1. Others on the team who won letters were Virgil Wehking, Kent Nierman, Orville Sensei, Frederick Cunningham, Walter I-Iongsermeier, Roger Hake, Ervin Chesney, Maurice Garnholz, John Hines, and Billy Westerfield. OIL BELT CONFERENCE Our school has become a member of a new conference called THE OIL BELT CONFERENCE. Other member schools are Irvington, Young, Shanna- felt, Antioch, Iuka Vernon and Alma. It is the intention of this conference to sponsor competition in softball, basketball, and track. p The conference track meet will be held at Young School on May 9, 1947. We hope to bring home a trophy-preferably the championship one. The season of 1947-48 will see us competing in all three sports in this conference. CROSS COUNTRY TRACK I Cross country running was taken up for the first time this year by the high school. Robert Brink, Roger Brinkmann, Marvin Haake, Hilbert Brink- mann, Leroy Greiman, and Carl Rommelmann made up our team. After train- ing all fall, we went to the district meet at Belleville on Novmber 9th. It was a cold, rainy day, but the meet was held ,at Oakridge Golf Course. East St. Louis won the team title and the chance to compete in the State meet. - VVe finished fifth ahead of Mascoutah. It was lots of fun, but two miles is a long ways. f if
