FOOTBALL 1st row—Lieft to rght: Harvey Hejduk, Emil Gola, Marie Billington, James Korea (c), Richard Leslie, Albert Gabor, Rupert Atkin, Joe Znidarsic. 2nd row—Reft to right: Frank Tarr (coach), Milton Preotle, Wilford Behm, Lynn Miller, William Newby, William Eland, Warren Whipple, Kay Whipple Frank Pizzino (asst. mgr). 3rd row—Left to right: Edward Heinrich, George Candy, Jack Pethtel, Louis Pitschmann, Jerome Gelber, Elmer Hummel, Ben Pizzino, John Woidtke, Robert Greene, Gilbert McLean (manager). Although few in number, the group of eager huskies who answered Coach Frank Tarr's call to grid wars last September were great of heart. We need not advertise the fact that our Streaks did not win a game. Enough has been said of that unfortunate set of circumstances already. Not enough can be said of the team's spirit, however. Nor enough emphasis placed on the great effort that was made to stop the drives of opponents on all occasions. And we need not lose our sportsmanship because we lose a football game. Major lettermen who will leave M. M. H. S. via the graduation route this year are: Captain Jimmie Koren, Lynn Miller, Harvey Hejduk, Merle Billington, Rupert Atkin and Ray Whipple. If new laurels are to be gained, the outcome of the future will rest upon the shoulders of such remaining athletes as: Bob Greene, Dick Leslie, Dean Jones, Albert Gabor, Emil Gola and Bill Newby.

BASKETBALL TEAM 1st row—Left to right: Rupert Atkin, Lynn Miller, Kenneth Whipple, Richard Leslie, Ray Whipple, Edward Heinrich, Merle Billington (c), Ben Pizzino (asst. mgr.). 2nd row—Left to right: Wilford Behm (manager), Prank Tarr (coach), Paul Billman, Milton Preotle, William Newby, Robert Greene, Harry Bingham, Norman Risley (coach). 3rd row—Left to right: Lloyd Prince, Wick Hathaway, Stanley Zuzek, Charles Brotzman, Grover Strcikler, Jerome Gelber, Harvey Hejduk, Warren Whipple, Louis Pitsch- mann, Stuart Keener, James Koren. The Bl ues and Whites started out the season with four regulars from last year and other seasoned veterans Lynn Miller Kenny Whipple Harry Bingham and Dick Leslie. John Billington, who stepped up fast, was elected captain. The seconds had a nice looking bunch of hoop-tossers. These boys sort of showed up the first stringers at the first of the season but let down in the latter part. The Blues uncorked their bottle of the '35-'36 season by losing to Wickliffe 20-15 the first league game. Below you will find a resume of the basketball season. Following the week of the Wickliffe game, the Streaks came on the floor to trim Paines- ville 21-17. Mentor played host the next week, to take a victory by a score of 34-18. Next was the Alumni and they faded out in a 30-22 whitewashing. Madison went to Perry, our school rivalry, and went to work to a victory of 24-15. Bob Greene sank four double decker and a foul to annex honors in scoring. The Blues were in excellent shape for the arrival of Kirtland. They flashed too brilliant an offense for the boys from the sticks. Miller and Bingham, (Bingham, who had just started his season in a flash of hoop sinking) were in great form to tally, 18 and 16 points, which prac- tically defeated Kirtland, although the score was 47-22. Wickliffe was just as tough this time as the first and took Madison 33-19. These Mentorites are one tough hombre and the Blues had to bow to a 40-23 defeat. The Streaks hopped over to Geneva the next day to give Geneva a good fight. The final period ended with the score 24-24. Three minutes overtime were played and the Streaks let the Genevans slip in two baskets to win the game. Perry came to Madison in one big body and Madison wentto town to the tune of 31-24. Our own Tex Bingham flashed in five double deckers and a foul to cop all scoring honors. This fellow Bingham sure knows and plays his basketball. Madison traveled south to Kirtland to give them another practice game. Our Milt Preottle, who has been sitting down most of the time, finally had his chance and proved that he was a great shot. He tossed in two field goals and four out of five foul shots, to obtain scoring honors with eigh points. Miller and Bingham followed close with seven points apiece. Continued on Page 34 Twenty-eight
