He made the varsity and kept improving as the season progressed. Now at the end of the season, Coach Johnson can proudly point to another big piece of college material. BUD: A big factor in determining a good team is it's reserve power. Bud Boyle, although he didn't start all the games, served very reliably as a substitute. Bud has much to be proud of over his great improvement this year. His first year on the varsity, he performed very well, giving the team much that enabled them to go as far as they did. JOE: Joe Marg is also leaving school with many memories to remind him of his great work in relief rolls. A favorite with the feminine fans, Gallopin Joe contributed much towards the team's success and also provided much enjoyment for himself. Because of the fact that his high school years numbered only three, Joe deprived himself of another year with the team. However, he has accomplished in the three years what many failed to do in four years. RUDY: Looking into the future, we also see a great player in Rudy Susany. Having already proven himself a good substitute around the basket, Rudy promises to go further and follow in the footsteps of his brothers. He is one more reason for placing our trust in the success of next year's team. BASEBALL Although football and basketball were our major sports, we must not overlook our baseball and track teams. The baseball team, under the directions of Coach Reed, performed comparatively well in spite of the fact that they were handicapped by a late start and lack of equipment. The batteries, composed of George Vuletich and Rudolph Susany, pitchersg and Benny Tamburino and Ray Altiera catchers, were credited with most of the team's success. The batting ability of Louis DePaul and Jimmy Hall and the defensive skill of Billy Ondra and Phil Rogers were also indispensable to our teiam's success. TRACK TEAM Although track was not an officially established sport, six boys: CS. DiCioccio, J. Morris, C. Altiero, W. Harris, A. Stefano, L. Milliganj reported and represented Lowellville in the Mahoning County Track Meet at Poland. l58l

,rq,. Most of us are looking forward to the day when Westminster College will be presenting Lowellville with a trophy in appreciation for its star player. CIN GER : Ginger, the other co-captain of the team, played a bang-up sea- son. Besides his great playing in the tournaments, everyone will remem- ber his great play in the Brookfield game when he victoriously stopped an overtime period with a spectacular shot. Although ending his high school career, we feel sure that he is just beginning and that some day Ginger will be big time in the sports world, bringing honor to his class and school. SOUP : Loyal Milligan will always be remembered for his superb guarding this season. In practically all the games, he had the honor of guarding the toughest man. Not only that but he guarded well, enabling Johnson to take his mind off at least one of the opponents' players. Strange things have happened so We won't be surprised if, when Soup is turned loose in June, a Hotel Manager's League will be started in basketball. LEFTY : With all of the good talent leaving each year, one would think that eventually Lowellville would no longer have good teams. This is not true so long as players like Ray Matthews keep coming up. Lefty made the first team this year and still has another year to continue his work. Small and clever under the basket, Lefty found himself high point man in several games. Everyone is looking for great things from this boy in the future. GEORGE: Already a veteran, George Vuletich will also be playing again next year. George, besides having an advantage in his great height is an excellent shot. These two factors are those that all coaches look for and any team that is lucky enough to have such players with them will go places. Thus we have reason to expect great things of next years team. BANANAS : A lot of dynamite Wrapped up in a small package is about the best way to describe Bananas Showing the scrap that he shows in all sports, Bananas proved a great help to the team. Although his height was a handicap in guarding the big boys, he saw plenty of action during the season. Bananas will not be back next year and his scrap will be missed a great deal. SLIM : Among all the players, it can be safely said that the most improve- ment came in Albert Stefano. Slim started out the first of the year E571 4 5 Z 4 f 5 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 f 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 I NNYXNN NXNNXNXNX'YX'YX'YYYYYNtYYXN' NNNX' 'NYYYYYX'YX'YYXNYYXNYYYYXNYYYYYYXNNYXNYYXNYYYY 'YYYX X'YX'YXN'XkN'YY
