laying the field By Susie Woodhams ven though Houston offered more cold and misty days than pleasant ones in mid February, boys interested in making the Varsity and Junior Var- sity Baseball Teams had to catch spring fever when the tryouts started. When the 15 players were named to the Varsity unit, the afternoon prac- tices lingered until 6:30 p.m., and the workouts seemed to pay off when the Varsity took home two trophies from early season tournaments.

After Northbrook put down the Mustangs, the Big Red Machine came right back with a 7-l victory over the Raiders.
