1939 Baseball Ralph Rhoads and his two assistants, David McVey, and Howard Moore, all of the faculty, called the battery candidates together for the first practice, February 28. Practices were held in the Junior high school Dun- geon , until the weather permitted outdoor practice. On March 24 a gen- eral practice was called for all candidates. Inclement weather prevented steady practices so that very little practice was had before the opening game with West Chester. Only four veterans are left from last year's team, Paul Detwiler, third base, Mike Drevyanko, first base, Jim Detwiler, and Darlington Groff, pitchers. , Seniors who will be lost by graduation are Paul Detwiler, Jim Detwiler, Richard Soulen, Edward Wynne, Robert Hopple, Thomas Taggert, Albert Batzel, and two senior managers, Quentin Hamborsky, and Vincent Free- man.

The seniors who participated were: Stephen Magyar, Joseph Montich, Joseph Mihalcik, William Raysor, and Edward Szegedy. The managers were Albert Byerly and Edward Pietro.
