TUMBLING TEAM Although tumbling is a comparatively new activity in our school its popularity has grown very quickly. It has proven to be a very beneficial sport to those who take it as well as an excellent means of providing en- tertainment. This year's team was composed of two groups, the boys' tumbling team, and the girls, tumbling team. The boys put on exhibitions at three baseketball games and the girls at one. These performances met with great success. Specialty acts which showed outstanding talent were put on by Phil Rahoi, Edmund Niongrain, Fred Lonsdorf, and Leo Rahoi. The boys' section of the team was under the leadership of lylr. lrv- ing Iadin and lNIr. Frank Logan. lylrs. Chappel instructed the girls. Page Eighty-four

V V THE ARGQNAUT V A A 'Y i. .......f . J.. ff f TRACK Une of the most popularized sports but the least publicized in high school is track. This season over 130 boys have answered the call to the cinders, among Whom are eight lettermen returning in track. They are Vanitvelt, 100 yard dashg Burby in broad jump and shotg Grailer, relay and 440 yard dashg Vicklund and Calvi, milersg Munson, pole vaultg Van Laanen, high jumpg and Puhalo With his 225 pounds flipping the shot. This year's squad has some very fine long distance runners with Ar- divino Mariucci, Albert Robbins, and Charles Syrjanen coming from the championship cross country team. The squad is weakened by the loss of Kenneth Alquist, miler and hur- dler, who is ineligible because of the ninth semester ruling, and James Manko, 440 and shot point man, who dropped out of school. Although last.year's graduation took l5 lettermen from the squad, Chard has sifted his candidates into a very promising team. Sea.son's Schedule Inter Squad meet-May 4. Tri meet, composed of Iron Mountain, Kingsford and Iron River-May 11. District meet at Manistique -May 18. U. P. meet at Houghton -May 25. Escanaba Relays-May 30. Page Eighty-th

TENNIS TEAM Tennis, in the last few years, has enjoyed a tremendous increase in popularity. The team is made up by the winners in a school tournament in which all students are allowed to participate. Faculty supervision is in charge of Mr. Wright, who is assisted by Mr. Jadin and Mr. Matthews. The latter two men have Won letters in tennis while in college. The players returning from last year's aggregation are Jim Harvey, Bill Manahan, Martin Raskin, Clayton Duby, Cornelius Peck, Donald Michela, and Bruce Anderson. The team suffers the loss of Eddie Rocheleau, 1939 captain and U. P. champion who is no longer able to take it up. Eddie not only enjoyed sports, but possessed no limited talent, participating also in basketball and football. ln pre-season practice Bill Benham has shown excellently in form and looks to be varsity material. The lron Mountain High School schedule includes an inter-city tour- nament with Kingsford, a keen competitor. Un May lS a dual meet was held with Nlenominee at lron Mountain and the following Saturday the U. P. tournament Was held at a site not yet decided upon as this is writ- ten. The team also traveled to Marinette sometime during the season. On June 3, 1939, the U. P. tournament was held of which Crystal Falls was host to the various teams in the district, all of which had won their respective places through competition. At that time lron bloun- tain participants tied Painesdale for third place. For individual honors Eddie Rocheleau Won the singles championship. With the return of at veteran group lron Mountain should be a very dreaded contender. Page Eighty hxc
