1 0 SPORTS speedy newcomers gave further strength to the squad, while many of last year’s team who didn’t get quite the number of specified points to win a monogram were out there plugging and expect to receive a coveted P. H. this year. The squad holds wins over Marine City, St. Clair and Algonac. but were on the small end of a dual meet with Royal Oak and triangular meet with Mount Clemens and Pontiac, who tied for first place. The Red-Whites are favored over Croswell in the last meet of the season. Many of the athletes of the team were almost sure point winners this season, coming through with points in nearly every meet. “Stu Mc- Cabe and Oscar Hayslett were at top shot-putting form at the close of the season, both men breaking forty-three feet.

SPORTS 11 Tennis Tournament Mr. Mills was faculty sponsor to a highly successful tennis tourna- ment, the matches of which were played on the Pine Grove Courts. The first brackets were rapidly filled and a second tournament was necessitated. Thirty people entered the first tournament and twenty- four entered the second, showing that a high interest in the ancient sport exists among the student body. One feature of the tournament was the number of girls entered in the tournament, as the playoffs gave evidence of many future Lenglens and Moodys in the tourney. At this writing, the only finished bracket, 1 1th grade, was won by Gar Henry in straight sets from Verlin Treend. The other winners will be decided and an all-school champ will be chosen. Interclass Softball Mr. Paulson and Mr. Sommer are piloting the interclass softball league this year to a successful close. The Sophomores are showing class in this sport and both 1 OB and 10A at this writing are undefeated. All games are played on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school on the Tech diamond. The managers of the teams are: 12A E. Millet 1 IB S. Parent 12B R. Donaghy 10A H. Ailio 1 1 A E. Ailio 10B R. Morris Cheerleaders This year’s squad of cheerleaders was the largest and one of the best in the school’s history. Five veterans and eight recruits saw regular service at varsity games and pep meetings, two of the recruits coming through to win letters for their first year’s work. The squad this year inaugurated locally the idea of putting on comedy stunts at half time of the varsity basketball games. They also ran the book exchange in September and January, the profit of which was used for expenses and new equipment. They also led Red-White fans’ root- ing at out of town games. The squad, at an informal presentation of letters to six of the leaders, elected Steve Allen and Bill Brahany as co-captains for the 1933-34 athletic season. The leaders were: Steve Allen. Howard Ailio, Virgil Billings, John Busby, Clarence Brandenburg, Norman Barnes. Jack Davis. Jack Lloyd, Alex MacCreadie, Bill Stapleford, Bob Van Slambrouck, Jack Frost, and Bill Brahany.
