The squad is composed of four mem- bers lrom last year's nine' and five new- comers. In the opening game the lay Cee men gave the 1939 Ililnois State Champions, Ulilson lun- ior College, a terrific battle before succumbing 8 to 7. Hs the Oracle went to press 'before any other games were played, no other competi- tive results are known, but from the ability and spirit the team displayed in their opening con- test it looks like the nine should have a very satisfactory campaign. 4 f1fffWf!f!ff! The regulars from the '39 team are lack Gar- ness at shortstop, Fred Leffler in left-field, Ralph Hale at third base, and Clare moore in right- lield. The other positions are capably filled by Harry Beste at first-base, Iohn Ruhl at second, Frank Rahman, star pitcher, Howard fflathis in center-field, and George fllcCarth, the catcher. If replacements are needed, Coach Fleming Dbrrell Bloch, Bill Deiters, Frank Grieco .r and Richard Briggs. ffffffflff nga K! can call on George Standerwick, H1 lllelinf
