Louglnn, lll1lllllLf6'l'. 0806611 After having finished a very successful season last year the prospects for this year's team look even ihetter. The season got off to a slow start because of persistent rains which made it impossible to conduct p1'actices. Most of our pre-season practice took place in the gym. When the first game rolled around, we were in fairly good shape. The team's pitching was highlighted by the experience of Gary Sipohn, Jim fHuckJ Staufifer, and Dennis McCrudden. Other positions were held by experienced and capable players also. Thus far, we have attained a record of dubious achievement with two wins and three losses. Because of the rainy weather, we have had three games postponed, which we undoubtedly would have won! ? Our first game was played against Spring-Ford in weather usually associated with Eskimos and polar bears. The fielding and batting were not quite up to par, and in the rather loosely-played contest Owen J. came out on top with a 7-6 score. A much better brand of baseball was played in a return match, but a big 5-run inning midway in the contest clinched the game for Spring-Ford, 6-C. In a game with Plymouth-Whiteimarsh at Kenilworth, the Owen J. hitters finally got their batting eyes adjusted and bombed three P.-W. pitchers, emerging with an 11-7 victory. A second game, played at Plymouth Meeting, saw P.-W. bounce back to a 5-3 victory in a series of misplays by the Owen J. aggregation.
