I n1l1' N5 1940 gailoffs O9 gffg O'ZElAIO'Z We, the hearty children of the sea, are attempting to show our apprceiation for our life and recreation by featuring the things that relate to our sea, or gulf. We feel that we live in a tropical paradiseg that we are caressed in the arms of the Atlantic on the one side and in the arms of the Gulf on the other. To show this love, and to help others see some of the pleasures and thrills we receive from living in Sarasota, we use the Gulf of Mexico and its life for our theme this year in our Sailor's Log. It is our wish that some may find pleas- ure in our Log and that others will have it as a storehouse of happy memories now and forever. -D. J. Michael, Editor contents I.

The money taken in went for black sweaters which were awarded to boys winning their second letter this year. Coach Chet A.

I. li E V I E VV The 1940 Sarasota High School Basketball team compiled, probably, the best record of any basketball team throughout the season and of any team in the history of the school, playing 19 games in their regular schedule, winning 16 and losing 3. They defeated Boca Grande and lost to K. M. I. out of the conference. They won within the conference from Bartow twice, Palmetto twice, Punta Gorda twice, Arcadia twice, Wauchula twice, Winter Haven twice, Fort Myers twice, Bradenton once, and lost to Bradenton once. Throughout the season they compiled a total of 628 points to their opponent's 483 points. The squad this year was composed of 10 boys, which was divided into two teams -the first team composed of Arden McNeill, Kenneth Purtz, Ralph Matherly, D. J. Michael, and Jack Mooreg the second team composed of John Moore, U. G. Matherly, Joe Leatherman, Frank Logan, and Jack Scott. Arden McNeil, captain of the Sailors this year, was high point man throughout the season with a total of 178 points Kenneth Purtz, the lanky center on the squad, is second high point man with 128 points. Ralph Matherly, Sailor guard, was third high point man with 104 points. Arden McNeil and Ralph Matherly received additional honors by making first and second team all-conference. Although these boys failed to win the South Florida Conference championship, they received the distinction of being chosen number one team in the South Florida Conference and number two in the district. Although these 'boys lost to Bartow in the semi-finals in the South Florida Conference Tournament and the quarter-finals in the District Tournament, they won the praise of Sarasota fans throughout the season with their neat ball handling and basketball shooting. lfffrlf-1f'f,-.1 fxfx V940 g0il0'z,S O9 gffgwg s MILDRED EMMELHAINZ Girls' Sports C II E141 R I, E A D lil li S First year members were Wilma Glover, Marie Scott, Luella Halliday, Louise Gay, Carolyn Carpenter, Sybil Garner, Hilda Gay, Beulah Strong, Mildred Lowe, Emma Jo Bradley, Eileen King, Wilma Glass, Elizabeth Smith, Sue Mowery, Eula Lee Wil- liams, Lillian Lamb, Blanch Bradley, Minette Brown, Joyce Glendenning, Margaret Dill, Joyce Hayes, Naomi Shulman, Janice Taylor, Audrey Edwards, Mary Stevens, Aline Pope, Lena Sandstrom, and Mary Ann Higgins,first year cheer leader.

Not a single formation was used twice throughout the entire foo ball season. Marching before every game and, at the half, the Pep Squad displayed clever f grma- tions which were the product of hard work and constant drilling. The cheer leaders wore their usual all-white uniforms with the addition of a full-sleeved orange jacket. The squad marched along in their all-white outfits and orange and black striped sweaters. As a body which fought for school spirit, they are well deserving of three loud hurrahs. 1 lff-Il-SPITII 1940 gailoffs O9 gffgfyx wimming sam The Sarasota High School swimming team, under the able direction of Miss Mildred Emmelhainz, earned a team tie ifor third place in the annual South Florida Conference Swimming Meet at Punta Gorda April 19. The team was composed of eight boys and eight girls. The boys' team failed to earn any places except a third in the 50 yard back crawl, Court- land Collier winning the boy's only points. Other boys competing were Faubel Campbell, Dale Ernsberger, Preston Knapp, Carl Taylor, Bud Strong, George Healey and Louis Southwick, The girls' team won the 100 yard medley relay with a team composed of Strong, Warner and Clark. Marnie Petrie earned a second in the diving. Emily Parker was second in the 50 yard breast stroke, and in the 50 yard back crawl. Carol Clark was third in the 100 yard free style. The relay team of Neely, Faye, Taylor and Clark was third in the 200 yard relay. Girls making up the team were: Carol Clark, Emily Parker, Jeannette Taylor, Jean Neely, Marnie Petrie, Beulah Strong, Elva Warner, and Jean- nette Faye. The meet was won by Punta Gorda with Arcadia second. Satisfaction with the team was expressed by Miss Emmelhainz who was pleased with the showing of the team which Was, as a whole, meeting its first competition. The team practiced in Warner's pool and worked under a slight disadvantage of not having marked lanes, exact distances, or pool turns on which to practice. The divers, Miss Petrie and Louis Southwick, were unable to practice due to having no board from which to make their dives. However, despite this, the team performed very capably.

Carol Clark and Virginia Tharp, two scrappy guards, greatly helped their team. As a unit, this team was fast and capable while handling the ball. Experience only is needed to make them click. Coach Emmelha-inz reports that her entire squad will be back next year intact, and, with a year's experience, results should reach a top scoring for the conference.

Sarasota played host to the South Florida Conference baseball tournament, April 25, 26.

Ralph Matherly and John Moore were placed on the first string All-Conference team, Matherly unanimously elected captain. Joe Leatherman and Richard Willis won berths on the second string Conference team.

Sixty i940 gaiiofz'-5 O9 gffg 6310.05 550.172 For the first time in the history of the school an organized and exten- sive plan of attack upon track and field was formulated and carried out. Approximately 25 boys worked seriously for a coveted position on the team. The first inclination that the townspeople or the student body received as to the plan of action was when the team scheduled a dual meet, the first the school has ever had, with K. M. I. Although beaten the boys showed to good advantage. They held their second dual meet with Bra- denton H. S. and were easily the victors. At the South Florida Conference Meet, the team won the Track Championship trophy for the first time since Sarasota has been in the Conference. Not only did they win it by a handsome margin, but they established five new records, a sixth being disqualified through a technicality. Henry Drew established a record for the mile run, Harper Thompson raced to a new mark in the half mile. Harry Leatherman set a new mark for the discus throw, and the relay teams over the half mile and mile courses set new marks. The Sprint Medley team was disqualified after breaking the record in that event. The team was composed of Harper Thompson, captain, D. J. Michael, James Baccus, Harry Leatherman, Henry Drew, Glen Powell, John Moore, Hugh Tyler, Buster Austin, Fred Riegel, Maynard Rhoades, George Healey, Ralph Matherly, Kenneth Purtz, and Harry Higel. Gold medals for winning events in the Conference meet were won by D. J. Michael, Harper Thompson, James Baccus, Harry Leatherman and Henry Drew. No medals were given to the relay teams. The team was coached by Dick Price who ably directed the squad to its highest honors in the history of track at Sarasota High School.

The hall bulletin case has been kept supplied continuously with exhibits of work. The walls of the cafeteria have been beautified with friezes and posters, showing excellent design and taste, suitable to the different seasons and holidays. An exhibit for parents was greatly admired at the February meeting, when draw- ings, pastel work, water color paintings, and charcoal showed the various forms of art. The department assisted with designing scenery for the various plays given, and made the place cards and invitations for school banquets.

They were chosen from the Junior High with each group having one girl and the ninth grade two. Jauntlly dressed in black, white, and orange skirts and blouses, these girls headed by Evelyn Metcalf worked like veteran leaders both at games and pep assemblies: and next year it is hoped that they can continue. A vote of thanks should go to Miss Mildred Emmelhainz and Senior High Cheer- leaders who coached these girls.
