All were eager to work for the championship again this year. ln the school tournament, the following champions were crowned: Kenneth Garbrecht, 92 pounds, Bob Walsh, lOO pounds, Bob Stauber, 108 pounds, Gordon Hasenohrl, ll6 pounds, Howard Cfeldernick, l24 pounds, Willard Ekvall, l32 pounds, Wallace Ekvall, l4O pounds, Bill Gelderniclc, 148 pounds, Lloyd Mueller, l56 pounds. To these champions, Coach Menzel added Norbert Ley, Norman Fehrenbach, Kenneth Specht, Audrey Curtin, Orval Heide, Harold Creldernick, Allen Braem, Bobert Lee, Harry Buttke, and formed his inter-school boxing squad. Marshfield's l939 boxers started with a decisive win over Marathon on March 27th, and went on through their schedule including Wausau, Marion, and Stevens Point, ending another successful season. Due to the fact that only three of the squad will graduate, namely, L. Mueller, H. Buttke, and B. Lee, another good team seems assured for next year. COACH MENZEL A hunting he did go.

1. 1 - Girls' gym activities are planned according to the seasons of the year. Best adapted to the fresh, fall days was field hockey. To many of the girls it was a new sport, but they soon mastered it fairly well and looked forward to the brisk run to and from the field. With the arrival of winter and snow, basketball took the spotlight. lt was the most popular sport with the girls. Each of the classes had two or three teams which, in friendly rivalry, played for the various class championships. The first hour champions, The Startling All Stars, were captained by Alice Britteny the second hour champions were the Surprises captainecl by Diana Haight, third hour Winners were the Flat Foot Floogies captained by Ellen Ptoddis, the victors of the fourth hour were The Cherubs captained by Margaret Martin. Next came the fascinating game of volley ball. Classes were divided into teams as in basketball. Some of the girls, while not expert in basketball, seemed to have a sixth sense in volley ball technique. , The peace and quiet of the gym classes were sometimes shattered by the helpful and healthful appearance of corrective exercises which many times left the girls stiff and aching the next day. ' As the time drew near for the biggest event of the,year for the Physical Education students, the Gym Demonstration, class periods were used in learning new exercises and marching. - V .

However, the ad- vanced squad of the Tumbling Club do just these things. Girls who are still trying to do are aided by the advanced squad.
