BASKET BALL Although our tea111 this year was composed of practically 11ew 111011, Murray High enjoyed its ll1OSlZ successfull basket ball seaso11. The sea- S011 was closed with a fitti11g climax to the splendid showing of tl1c tea111. First by NVl1111l11g' tl1e last league game i11 a hard fought contest from Grantsville, 11ext the men of the faculty entertaiiied the basket ball boys at a banquet a11d theatre party. The fi11e backing of the team by tl1e student body and the pep a11d enthusiasm Sl10XVl1 by them at the g3lllCS was a large factor in helping the tea111 put 11p the wi1111i11g light it did. Murray was i11 the league this year with Gl'Zl.llJCSVlllC, Tooele, Jordan and Bi11gha.111. Murray wo11 the games with Toolelc and Grants- ville, but lost the games to Jordan kllld Bingham a11d the return games with Grantsville a11d Tooele. In addition to the league games Murray played exhibition games away from l1Oll1C at tl1e following schools. West Side High School, Manga a11d South Cache.

This is our first year of baseball since 1918. The sport died away the11 because we had no suitable place on which to play ball. Now with a campus ranking with the best i11 the state, all track and field sports will become part of Murray's athletic activities. The students first began, to show ll1l1Cl'GSl1 i11 baseball during the class series. Since then, as the season advanced a11d we played games with other schools, almost tl1e sa111e support was rendered a11d pep Hlld enthusiasm were shown as liberally as at football g'21IllCS. The members of this years' team were almost e11t1rely HCNV men at the game. But the boys played good co11siste11t ball Ellld built the foun- dation for a strong team 11ext year. -l-- TRACK Track was first introduced at our school last year. This new sport seemed to appeal to our athletes judging from the l1Ulllb6l' that turned . . . 7. . 1. out.
