SENIORS WIN AGAIN The inter-dass track and held meet was held Friday April 27, 1923. That day was a happy day for the Seniors but the Sophomores were somewhat downhearted. Thru the work of Roessler, Woods and Davis the Seniors copped the laurels. Roessler had the high score for the day with 21)4 points, with Woods and Davis trailing close on his heels with 19 4 and 16J4 respec- tively. Bingham and Parsons for the Sophomores were the point getters. It was a wonderful day for a meet but owing to some unknown reason no real records were made. From the looks of things Salem High is to have a strong track team in years to come. From the material that is possible to be obtained from the lower classmen our coach should have very little trouble forming a winning track team. The total results of the meet were: Seniors 64; Sophomores 21 Juniors 23; Freshmen 19)A. By events the results were:— EVENT 1ST PLACE 2ND PLACE 3RD PLACE 4TH PLACE 220 Yd. Hunk VY.

Track Team

Page 34 text:

CHRIS ROESSLER Salem High School has had many athletes of note, but of them all Chris Roessler, J23 stands out as being the greatest all- round athlete, Roessler has won his letter in Football, Basketball and Track. His record in football is certain- ly an enviable one. As full-back lie has scored the greatest num- ber of points for the team. His line plunges, his open held run- ning and his sure tackling have made him feared by his oppon- ents. All teams have been coach- ed to “stop Roessler. At basketball he has played a stellar game at guard. Always dependable and with plenty of courage he could always be count- ed upon for more than his share of the work. On the track team Roessler was one of the biggest point winners for Salem. He has seldom failed to win first place in the county meet or at Mount Union in the pole vault and high jump and to place well up in the javelin throw and shot put. Roessler, although a star of un- usual individual ability has never sacrificed team play but has fitted in as a cog in a good machine. His ideal has not been to win honors for Chris Roessler but to bring victory to Salem High School. His record is one of which the school is indeed proud. page thirty
