The story was about college life, and concerned main- ly, with the possible chance of one fellow not receiving his sheepskin. All's well finally after much hilarious confusion.

JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM A Little Bit of Heaven was the theme of the annual Prom, given by the Junior Class in honor of the future graduates. Providing a truly Irish atmosphere, the gymna- sium was decorated in white and varigated colors of green. Figures symbolic of Ireland were hung along the walls.

OFF TO SCRIMMAGE BAGGETT CARRIES THE BALL Co-Captains and Coach Trulove Confer FOOTBALL The Marion Wildcats 51-52 football squad closed their season with a record of 1 win and eight losses. Despite this poor per- centage record, the cats played some very good football. Their best game of the year being against Centralia, Home- coming. The cats held the strong Or- phans scoreless the first half and then lost by a disappointing 13-0. With four first stringers back next year plus several out- standing Frosh-Soph players, we may look forward to a promising season.

BASKETBALL SUMMARY The Marion Wildcats display- ed some excellent basketball as they climaxed the season with a 19-10 record. After a slow start, the Cats defeated two power- ful teams, Pinckneyville and Champaign, to take third place in the Centralia Holiday Tourna- ment. The Wilsonmen won their last seven games before they were upset by a tricky Carbon- dale Attucks' team in the finals of the Regional Tourney by one basket. The Wildcats will lose four valuable men next year but have some excellent prospects and should have an outstanding team in 1952-1953.

The Kittens played most of the season with only three Sopho- mores on the entire squad. The Freshman Kit- tens played nine Freshman games and won nine. They showed one of the most powerful Freshman teams Marion has ever had. Mr. Wilson can look forward to having several outstanding prospects for the coming years.

BASEBALL The Morion High School baseball team of 1951 enjoyed a quite successful season of 11 wins and 5 losses. Aided by John Kent's excellent hurlinq and slugging, the Wildcats advanced to the finals of the Sub-District ot Harrisburg before they were defeated. Kent was not present at this final game as he went to Champaign to compete in the State Track Meet. Gene Baggett was the outstanding swatter as he compiled a very outstanding .440 batting average. Kent's pitching was outstanding and acclaimed throughout the state. He hurled one no-hit (against Carbondale) and three one-hit games. He pitched 53 2 3 innings during which he fanned 95 and allowed only six earned runs.
