E651 . - V Tennis Nineteen-forty brought one of the most successful tennis seasons Muskegon Heights High school has ever had. At the end of the year the Tiger netmen were tied for second position with Muskegon in the Southwest Conference. The last match of the season provided the biggest thrill of the year. The Muskegon Heights and Grand Haven teams were tied for first place. The three doubles teams came through to win, but the four singles lost. Then John Minarovic was defeated but only after a thrilling three-set duel. In the regionals, Muskegon edged out Muskegon Heights by half a point: but the Tigers managed to send two teams, Iim Risk and Ernest Ruiter, Paul Kramer and Iim Fairris to Ann Arbor for the state tournament. Only three members, Rudd, Fairris, and Murray were lost by graduation. The 1941 season opened with high hopes of bettering all previous records. H. A. Kruizenga deserves much credit for his patient and consistent effort with the team. Iohn Minnie Minarovic, outstand- ing athletic star of Muskegon Heights High school, this year was honored by coaches of the Southwest Conference as the only unanimous choice for the All-Conference Basketball Team. He is the possessor of eight varsity letters. In tennis, Iohn has been the mainstay of Mr. Kruizenga's squad for four sea- sons. He has progressed until he is now one of the best singles players in the conference. Seniors voted Iohn the most athletic boy in the class. They could not have made a better choice. Iohn has what it takes. x - wp , - . ' -'-9' X r -s 4...---inn.-Hwy.

Because an extraordinarily warm and early spring made its appearance this year the boys were able to work out daily on the Pontaluna course. Al- though only a few boys try out for this sport it is coming to be popular with young boys as well as with older boys and men. It is a sport requiring con- stant eftort, skill, steady nerves, and intense concentration. The following students were among those on the regular varsity: Iohn Kole- nic, Don Kooyers, Walter Kroll, and Frank Kwiecien. Richard Fethke, Eddie Opalek, Leopold Kwiecien and Mike Sz ucs were also prominent during the sea- son's play. I 2-
