BASlBAll Orono had a fairly successful baseball campaign in 1953. The Riots won 4 and lost 4. For the opening game of the season Orono tallied to beat Bucksport 10 to 9. Orono then lost to rival Old Town 7 - l. The next week they journeyed to Ellsworth to take on a better than average club. The Eagles finally won in the first extra inning of play 4 - 3. Later Ellsworth was runner-up for state honors in Class L. Bapst sallied to lick the Riots 7 - 4, in their next outing. The next game was a play-off game with Greenville. The Lakers emerged the victors 5 - 1. The Riots finally caught fire to wind up the season winning 3 in a row. Their first victory was over Bar Harbor 10 - 5 at the Seasiders home field. Hampden was the next victim 6 - 4. The Brewer game ended the season with the Riots winning 3 - 1. Although Orono lost nine Seniors and one Junior the '54 season should be as good, if not better, than the previous one. Art Parlin, Bill Busching, and Jim Treadwell are the only returning lettermen, but almost all the outer veterans played a lot of baseball in the summer of '53, They formed a team and proceeded to clean up the Bangor Lions League to win themselves a trip to Boston. The Brewer game closed a two year coaching career at O, H. S. by Roger Bryant. With a new coach and a team with lots of spirit, Orono looks forward to the baseball season of 1954 with high hopes.

The girls had a lot of Orono 14 HUSSOU 41 fun, and improved a lot after the season got underway. Umm' 27 Eimpqen ig Our coaches were Jane Ingraham, Joanne Burns, and 22222 35 Cams 25 Mrs. Vanderbeclc. Minnie Douglass was high scorer Orono 26 Hgmbdgn 55 for the season with 80 points. Although the girls only Orono 30 Husson 31 won one game and lost six, they expect to do much Orono 26 C.Y.O. 39 better next year as everyone but Ann Gero and Mart Trefethen are returning. After Husson slaughtered the girls with a score of 41-14, Orono made a valiant try and lost to them 31-30 in the best game of the season. Many thanks to our coaches and all those who made the team possible. Especially Mr. Folsom. This page sponsored by Stevens Studios

QA 073' NW '71 FRONT ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Roger Clapp, Mgr., Ronnie Waddell, Dick Witter, Arthur Parlin, Bill Busching, John Dall, Jim Treadwell, Ray Baker, Mgr. BACK ROW: Coach Fol- som, Gary Goodin, Frank Beyer, Don Piper, James Abbott, Ross Wyman, Tom Gibbs, Dave Adams, Bill Bridges, Mgr. In the fall of 1953, a new coach joined the faculty of Orono High. Coach Folsom did not have too much material left over from last season. There were three lettermen: Bill Busching, Ray Dall, and Art Parlin. The fourth man was Ronnie Waddell. Fol- som took these four men and the nucleus from last year's great J, V, team and began to build a club. When the last points were totaled and the last gym swept out, it proved to be an outstanding club. The regular season ended with the Riots posting a 12-4 record for their efforts.
