HIS YEAR the track season brought to Olympia fans many close and exciting s in meets with other schools. At the of this writing, the Bears already had d wins over Puyallup and Stadium of ma. Dlympia was especially outstanding in mg distance runs due to the meritorious trmances of Bob Dunn in the mile and Mills in the hilf-mile. Also the sprints excellently handled by Bill Shumate in 00- and 200-yard dashes and by Bob McCoy and Leigh r in the hurdles. In the high jump John Chambers, George n and John Mills kept opposition very much on their toes, as done by Bob Robbins in the pole vault. Al Carlson Sob Carpenter excelled in field events. Fttzieli Miller LTHOUGH usually considered a minor sport, tennis this year became a comparatively major event in spite of bad ter. When weather was suitable. the Stevens courts were than packed with enthusiastic tennis fans. No real stars produced from this year's turnout, but there was very competition for top berths on the ladder. Should interest mis improve next year as it has this, it will become an im- nt sport, Those who were fighting for berths were: Bob Gess. Gor- Vlarsh, Bob Dawley, Gene Strandness, Ivan Briggs, Wallie mn, Ray Reed, Del Lewis, Walt Brockway, Ralph Thomas, 'aul, Keith Kisor. Ron Reed, Chuck Rice. Ritchie Zumwalt lohn Becker. .YMPIA linksmen, handicapped by lack of outside compe- ition, participated in intramural play, and played Lincoln tcoma. Some of Olympia high's better golfers have done in tournaments held at the Mountain View links, and it is ed that they would have done very well had they met more f-town teams. Golfers registered on the ladder were: ss Brown, Ken Tannatt, Duke Matthews, Lloyd Nordness, Clements, Norman Wentworth, Keith Kisor, Laurence man, Bob Milbrad, Pete Olson, Ritchie Zumwalt, Eilert ey. - photograph at 'ight is shown ntire O.

HE BEARS' baseball season of 1944 began to shape up quite well at the beginning of the season. considering the lack of returning lettermen. The first game of the year, scheduled for April 4 with Yelm, was postponed because ot' rain, as was the doubleheader April 11. Here is the lineup of the squad as it started the season: Clinton Hovis, catcher, Don Donnelly, first base: Gib Horton, second base, Glide Smith, third baseg Wayne Swanson, shortstopg Alan Carlson, left field: Dick Taylor, center field, Jim Maguire, right fieldg Jay Rockey, Floyd Thompson, Joe Freitas, and Lloyd Shoblom, pitchers. Others who placed are Gene Premo, second base: Bob Bowker and Dorn Carey, third base, and Don McCuiston, right field. Olympia finally got a chance to play, when the rain let up after postponement of four contests. The Bears beat Oakville, 10 to 6, in a slugfest that was marked by 18 Bruins' striking out in spite of their winning, Thompson pitched a good game for so early in the year, allowing only six hits and whiffing 8. The lack of training caused by the early inclement weather showed up in the boys' fielding, which wasn't always of a flossy nature. The squad as a whole, however, stacked up well with former champ and near-champ Olympia diamond outfits. Below: cub basketball team. They chalked up many victories. Left to right: back row- Risvold, Ray, Anderson. Hollinger, Westlund, Martin and Rogers. Front Horton. Williams. Peringer, Strandness, Suelzle and Lyne.
