Front Row: Jerry Sackett, Eugene Carpenter, George Hamlin, Kenneth Moore, Alvis Hendricks, Mark Griggs, manager. The “Irish” joined the South Douglas County Baseball League this year, for the first time since 1937 whan they won the championship in a game with Days Creek. Only two boys were missing from last years team when the “Irish” lined up for the first tryout of this year. The boys worked hard and although they won only the last game they hope to develop a winning team and make a better showing for themselves. All boys who were present from last years team took the same position they had played before and few changes took place in the lineup.

Tennis Tennis is a new sport for Riddle but is now played on the Riddle Campus. The tennis court has now been finished by the work of the High School boys and NYA students. The courts were first started four years ago; just after the first year of school in the new building. There is just one court that is available for use at the present time, but the other will be finished sometime in the near future. Ping-Pong We are very fortunate in having a new ping pong table and set this year. The High School student Body and teachers were all cooperative in making this table. It was set up in the center of the gymnasium and everyone who played wore tennis shoes so they wouldn’t scratch the floor. The spectators watched from the sidelines. The table is five by nine feet. It is painted dark green with a white line down the center and round the edges of the table.
