3 yards and a cloud of dust! Ohio State? Wrong! Prince George JV football team. This year's squad ground out a fine 3-3-l record under the coaching of Ed Wisneski with assistance from Terry Schraner. This young, inexperienced squad fought off several injuries to key players as the Baby Royals crusaded across the goal line to win 3 out of their last 4 games. In their last game the Royals seemed to put it all together, leaving the Waverly team ab dazed as it watched the Royals grind out 29 points. The defense shut off opponents in 4 games not allowing a single score. The devasting defense only allowed an , 7 3 average of 3.4 points a game. The Baby At 3 -3 - 1 Royals lost some heart- breakers, but all in all it was a fine season. Since Coach Ed Wisneski took over at PG the team has suffered only one losing season. Coach Wisneski also teaches PE at the Jr. High. The coach commented that he felt that his young and inexperienced team performed well and that he was very pleased.

At PGJHS these and other girls like them have become known for their talent and grace through the newly formed and highly appraised Tumbling Club. This is the first time in the history of PGJHS that a Tumbling Club has been claimed. It all started when a couple of girls asked Mrs. Rockett if a tumbling club could be organized. Mrs. Rockett then proceeded to higher authorities which then conceded to the organization of a Tumbling Club. The Club lacks much needed equipment, but it makes do with what it has. The Tumbling Club con- sists of about 45 girls in the it My Sth and 9th grades. Upon asking how the girls could benefit from this, Mrs. Rockett replied, The girls will learn many things in gymnastics A that they will need to know if l they plan to go on in this field of sports. The girls will be needing more equipment, but as far as talent goes, they have more than enough. Gymnastics, page I4
