?7. SOFTBALL TEAMS This year for the first time in the short history of M. H. S. the boys and girls enrolled in the great field of softball land we do mean en-rolled.J The boys A partioiprted in the county softball league and the girls challenged the neighboring schools who, we now have reason to believe, were specialists in this great sport. Although both squads were unable to chalk up a single victory throughout the entire season, we might say they gathered anmoralnvictory from each game. ' Some of the outstanding features that will long be re- membered by our never-tiring fans include: The boys all fighting over who was to catch a fly. Don Saxgon's 4Super1i1anJ hone run. Dale Hensel trying his best to hit the ball left-handed. Bill Darnell charging down the base ---- man! Ray Cook's frantic scribblings as scorekeeper. USure-Shotn Jack Lill, our shortstop, muffing an easy ground- er. Jin Conley, trying to decide whether to play first or second. Foward Conley, our center fielder, trying to play with the sun in his eyes. Mary Radel with that sure-hold on the ball. Dorothy Herbert, shouting remarks at nGinnyn on first, Norma Christiansen, our star catcher without a mask. Doris Newland pitching practically a no-hit game, Gerry Gibb, our second Joe DiMaggio, getting angry at the team for not playing like pros. Ginny Pace, blowing up on first base. Mr. Harrington's flawless umpiring. Mr. McFarland trying to shout loud enough to make the field- ers hear him. And everyone still trying to win a game.
