Lion Gymnasts Rout Early Season Foes The 1960 Valley gymnastic squad was one of the best in the state. Paced by Bill Borden, All-Metropolitan Con- ference Gymnast of the Year in l959, Coach Ray Fol- losco's strong men lost iust, one dual meet by mid-season. Considered by all as the Metropolitan Conference team to beat, the Monarchs routed most early season foes by size- able scores. Terry Hale, Pete King, .lohn Sottile,and Steve McLean added to the over-all Monarch strength. All of the top Valley gymnasts were expected to place in the state finals. Follosco is considered to be one of the finest gym- nastic coaches in California and has consistently molded his team into championship squads. 1960 GYM TEAM-lFront Rowl: Coach Ray Follosco, Terry Hole, Bob Fields, Ron Herman, Bill Borden, John Sottile, Ed Johnson. lBack Rowl: Bob Water- man, Ray Hall, Bruce Margolin, Bruce Simon, Merl Ferman, and Gary Edwards.

Sploshers In So-So Year At the beginning of the 1960 swimming season prospects for the Monarch swim squad looked very good. But when Jerry Lipman, who sent record books flying, transferred to Wyoming and his re- placement, Roy Schlobaum, could not compete, the outlook took ci quick reversal. Coach Mike Wiley then came up with this line-up, which has handled most of the meets forthe Monarchs this season. ln the breaststroke Doug Meyers, Pete Kriz and Tom Ely compete. The sprints were handled by Dick Johnson. Distances were handled by Dudley King, Dick Marvel and Dick Sandt. Tom Hollingshead led the Valley men in diving. ii' l H sw? X f ii tggmnr 'A cunizsny .
