Building this year ' s team around a nucleus of the return- ing lettermen, Ed Jackson, John Craley, and Dick Scovil, Coach Wilkinson molded a young, tough fighting team. Wilkinson ' s fighting team finished their regular season with a 22-2 record winning the Mid-State Eight Confer- ence Championship for their second straight season. Now engaged in the Regionals for the State Basketball Championship, Manual had downed Matamora 87-46, Spalding, 58-54, and are now fighting for the Champ- ionship against Central tonight. If Manual wins they will advance to the Sectionals, then the Supersectionals, and finally coveted State Championship. 126 MID c s Ti.

TflacUte The Manual Rams were led this year by a All STATE center Eddie Jackson. Jackson with his high scoring and almost impossible rebounding ability, shattered the scoring and rebounding records in the Mid-State- Eight Conference. With Dick Scovil and Ron Newtson pound- ing points from the outside, Jackson, Johnny Craley, and Jim Anderson com- pletely destroyed all of their opponents efforts to stop them. When Jackson and the boys under the basket got a little cold, Scovil and Newtson would machine-gun baskets in with uncanny precision. Jim Anderson and Dick Scovil, perhaps the unsung heros of Manual ' s team, snarred rebounds, made baskets and set up plays. Craley and Newtson also assisted Manual ' s team in winning the MID- STATE -EIGHT CONFERENCE championship. Manual, although not winning state, captured fourth place by beating Benton 54-51. This sounds like an average game, but it wasn ' t. Manual down 14 points going into the fourth and final period came smashing back to win by 3 points in an overtime. Little Ron Newston completely outmaneuvered Benton as he dribbled circles around them. Johnny Craley was spectacular as he popped in set shots from all over the court. Sharp shootin ' Scovil banged in the last two points of the game, and Jim Anderson snagged a desperation pass which could have cost Manual the game.

SiZ e sM The Manual Rams Baseball team of 1960 enjoyed a highly successful season with a season record of 20-1 losing only to East Moline in the last round of the State Tour- nament. The coaching of Ed Stonebach led them to wins in many games by sub- stantial margins. The team itself had some of the best Baseball players ever at Manual. The team captured the M(id-State 8 Base- ball crown for the second year as well as the City Championship. Manual 7 , East Peoria Manual 5 Peoria High Manual 10 Spalding Manual 7 Niles (N.D.)

Their dual meet contribution was won 1 and lost 7, but when the chips were down and the big meets rolled around, the runners of Coach Loyd Yentes demonstrated that in- satiable Manual spirit and finished In fine style. First was a come-back finish in the final event of the Mid -State 8 Conference Meet, the mile relay, enabling ' : e Rams to finish third in the conference after everyone had picked them to finish dead last. Then the Normal Relays and the IHSA District meet came. Individually, the cinder -men stood out, as L. C. Pannell, Floyd Taylor, and Bill Adams all qualified for the state championship meet. Pannell, a standout all year for Coach Yentes, placed fourth in the 100 -yard dash finals of the State Track Meet. Bill A dams --pole vault L. C.

Mr. Tim Gorman — Coach, Tennis under the direction of Mr. Gorman has again been organized at Manual to compete in Mid-State Eight Con- ference. Not since 1956-57, when Mr. Vachon coached the team, has tennis been a competive sport at Manual. At the present there are thirteen boys out for tennis. Mr. Gorman believes, in regard to competition that it will proba- bly be above us, but we expect to win a few matches. Students wishing to see the matches will be admitted free of charge. Home games will be played at Bradley Park. Mid-State Eight Conference matches will consist of six singles and three doubles. There will be no certain set of boys on the team since the boys who show up best will represent the team in con- ference matches.

They told us it would be what we chose to make of it. They made it very plain that an education didn ' t entitle us to any more of this world than anyone else ; merely that with an education we ' d be better equipped to face it, meet its challenges. Our fathers told us we ' d stand a better chance with an education, and that we ' d get more out of life. It was true then, and it ' s still true now. And then, as though sensing an unspoken thought, our fathers added another woi ' d of caution. Nor is an education a substitute for hard work, they smiled. It ' s just a great help in that work. We offer you the same words as those we received. We offer you the same world, slightly changed, but essentially intact. It ' s for your hands to improve.
