An elderly man was in the habit when entering' ehureh, of bowing his head on the baek of the pew in front of him for a lone time. This excited the interest of a youngster who asked him just what he did during that time. The old man replied: Lad, that's a fair question and demands a fair answer. l don't know what other people do when they bow their head, but l always eount forty! Hello, -lim.

19 THE PIO NONI'1'E 25 t3j Milwaukee University School was third on our list of scheduled games, but again We were disheartened, as the field was exceedingly wet, due to a heavy rainfall the preceding night. Therefore the squad was excused trom baseball activities until the following Saturday, when they played the strong Mukwonago High School team, Q41 Our next engagement was to journey to Mukwonago on Saturday, May 2, to cross bats with their local High School team. The game proved to be a pitcher's duel in which W. Lawler showed his superiority. Had it not been for our reliable captain, Lambert Strachota, who hit a home run in the eighth inning, with one man on base, making the score three to two in our favor, there might have been a different story to tell. Due to the fact that both teams played air tight ball with no errors chalked up against them to discredit their records, the game was most thrilling from beginning to end, with Pio None being favored with the breaks. Q51 Our winning streak was continued when Pio Nono's nine visited the YVauwa- tosa Aggies. Once again our hitting gave us a margin of three runs at the finish of the game, the final score being 6 to 3. One of our great pitchers from the preceding year, Joseph Wlinter, seemed to dazzle and outguess his opponents with his marvelous pitching, having twelve strike-outs to his credit and allowing only four scattered hits. The t'National Pastime came into its own on April 1st. It assumed the largest proportiones ever attained at Pio Nono. Thirty-five recruits reported to show their de- sired ambitions in this sport. For many this fool's day was a jinx, as the large squad was diminished to two teams. Most of the material is experienced, however, and under the able coaching of Father Mason a super-excellent team is hoped led on the field to represent us. to be 1. 1Ved., April 22, Vtlauwatosa Aggies...vs... ....

During the Penetential season of 1925 our annual pool tournament was held. As usual, our 'tene-pushers were so numerous that it was necessary to distinguish the best from the better, and the good from the better players. The interest in this sport was very enthusiastic throughout the entire contest. Much skill and knowledge of' the game was displayed in various manners, as the ivories were rolled against the cushions and banked into one of the pockets. Louis Goodare acquired the prize for winning the championship. In the different classes the winners were as follows: . 1st Division-1, Louis Goodareg 2. Joseph Winter: 3, Conrad Cook. 2nd Division-1, Lowell Hellman, 2, George Conway, 3, George Abdulahg 4, Art.
