Smifh, Heicnsman, Podolsky, Lufz, Meyer, TENNIS and GOLF TENNIS AND GOLF C This year Jrhe fennis feam, under fhe guidance of Mr. Clader, was whal' could be fermed a mild disappoinfmenf. Sfarfing fhe season off wifh nine promising players, fhe feam was so hampered by iniuries fhaf if was never acfually af full sfrengfh. Heading fhe feam were co-capfains Phil Neilson and Reg Rice, bofh of whom had excellenf years. Neilson, alfhough bofhered by a froublesome knee, played his usual sparkling game, while Rice gained wide approval fhrough his fine, sfeady play. The resf of fhe boys, including Don Wolff, Pefe Pickard. Henry Brown, Holman Peffibone, Paul Zeigler, George Perkins, and Dave McCarn, alfhough play- ing fheir besf, had only mediocre seasons. In fhe Suburban League, fhe fennis feam landed Third place, quife a ways behind Oak Park, fhe winners. Even fhough none of fhe boys played in fhe Sfafe Finals, fhey worked hard and long all season, mak- ing fhe besf of confinual iniuries and unfavorable circumsfances. Mr. Aram's golf fearn had a very successful sea- son fhis year. They placed second in fhe Suburban League, winning six while losing only one mafch. righl' behind The leaders, Highland Park. For fhe sixfeen mafches played all year, 'rhe feam fook fhir- feen and losf fhree. Ted Taylor, who was elecfed capfain for nexf year, led fhe boys wifh an 83.69 sfroke average. Nexf came John Birkelund wifh a sfroke average of 86.83, and fhen Bob Bacon, wifh an 88. The enfire feam's average, including fhe scores of abouf eighf boys, was 86.82. Two ofher mainsfays of fhe feam, boys who played good, sfeady golf, were Joe Peffi and Dick Wood. On 'rhe feam also were Dick Peferson, Archie Wallen. Bud Wallen, and Pay Van Devenfer. Mr. Aram will counf heavily on fhe promising juniors 'ro carry fhe load of fhe feam once fhe seniors like Taylor, Birke- lund, and Bacon have graduafed. All in all, fhe golf feam had an inspiring season, and wifh fhe new hopes already found. fhey are looking forward fo an equally successful season nexf year.
