This year the Pacifica Spartan varsity track- men had the best season since the school came into existence. The team fought with all that they had, but at times, even with all of their efforts, the team just couldn't come through. This year, many trackmen had to leave the team as a result of graduation last year, and there will also be a few this year that will have to leave. But there are still many good players left from this year's track team with a few ex- cellent prospects to build up the strength of the team in future years. Bill Phillips, the track team's hurdler, will be returning next year.

Four of our matmen were sent to the D. V. A. L. championships. Our represent- atives put on a very good showing. Larry Topping took 3rd, Wayne Turage 4th, and Bob Maxwell 3rd in their respective divi- sions. This season's teams were composed pri- marily of Freshmen and Sophomores who were lacking in experience, but after the fine beginning they made this year we have a good chance to capture the title or come pretty close— come another year. Musclemen Bob Max- well and Jim Odom on the mat. WRESTLING A switch with smiles by Rudy Martinez and Wayne Turnage.

There was a good turn- out including members of last year's B Track Team. At the beginning of the season Coach Al Brunk said, The boys are in fine condition and our chances are good in the hurdles, 75 and 150 yard dashes, and relays. Was he a good prophet? Look at the record and see! J.V. BASEBALL The J. V. Baseball team got off to a sluggish start. They lost their first few games but they kept their re- sistance and spirit high. Many different points of their playing needed improve- ment but as they progressed they obtained real steam and greatly improved skill. Coach Lisle has taken pride in this year's team and hopes to see the boys back again next year. J.V.
