Football IN September of 1935 the first football team of Moon Township was organized. With Mr. Gendich, a new member of our faculty, the members of the squad practiced diligently to gain a berth on the team. A fairly strong team was moulded around such experienced players as Butterini, Hill, and Roth. This being our first year, we were beaten by teams of greater weight and experience. Despite all these defeats, the season was successful in so much as it aided 'lCoach to find such prospects as Kissinger, Baldessari, Borden, and others for next year's team.

Basketball MOON I'IIGI'I'S basketball team was organized in 1935. With a strong squad of players from 1934's junior High team, Coach Brooks produced a capable aggregation. Kissinger, Borden, Shafer, Tesla, Schnelzer, and McLaughlin, allfstar forward in Sectien XIII of the W. P. I. A L., filled the forward and guard posif tions. Smith, a lofty sophomore, performed at center. These boys, together with dependable substitutes, cooperated nicely providing strong opposition to the teams in Section XIII of the VJ. P. 1. A. L., and, considering that this was our first year in high school competition, we had a fairly successful season in the league with three wins and seven losses. The B squad under Coach Gendich's guidance, proved to have a more success' ful season than the Varsity. We are glad for this, because it shows us that there arefamong this young material-4boys who will capably uphold our prestige in the future. WINNERS OF VARSITY M THE winners of the Varsity ' Ernest Kissinger, Dragon Tesla, Robert McLaughlin, Charles Smith, Clyde Shafer, Daniel Borden, Joe Schnelzer, Frank Evanko, Walter Bartosch, Woodrow Cole.
