BOYS' ATHLETICS The boys' athletics were divided into three seasons: softball in the fall, basketball in the the winter, and track and softball in the spring we opened our fall softball season with seven- teen members. Below are the names and positicm of the players: Elwin Beavers, C. Walter Cremeans, P. Warren Dennis, F. B. Jesse Wilson, S. B. John Beatty, T. B. , Ovid Timmons, S. S. Pearl Melvin, L. F. Glenn Haughn, C. F. Dale Martin, S. F. Substitutes were Robert Sutton, Max'Neal,Ar- thur Jones, Wilbur Haughn, Lyle Walters, Donald Hinton, and Frank Boyd. ' Although we played only six games, we had a fair season. In our first game, with Walnut, we were defeated 34-O. We played our second game at Darby, though we thought our chances of winn- ing were slim, we won 9-7. In our next game,Wa1- nut walloped us 9-ll. After a week of rest, we were ready for Darby. We had beaten them once ani had high hopes of doing it again. However, after an exciting game, we came out the losers in a 6411 score. We had been looking forward to the game with Ashville for we felt sure that we couhi win from them. And we did--13-5. Well, that scored a success that we enjoyed very much. So we soon scheduled another game with Ashville, and was it exciting! We won 5-5. We started our season of basketball on Nov. 14, 1941. We weren't so hot in the first three or four practices, but after a few weeks of hard work and good coaching ,lug encouragment from Coach Shipley, our team began to shape into very good form, and grew better and better throughout the long weeks of playing. Finally, we finished the season by placing fourth in the county con- ference and third in the county tournament. But we lost in the semi-finals of the District Tour- nament which was held at Westerville.

Mont inuldl Our reserve team played nineteen games. Eady in the season, they could not seem to hit their stride, but toward the end they were doing good playing. They should have an outstanding team next year. In the district tournament Jesse Wilson was added to our first squad. Coach Shipley was pleased at the results of the basketball year. As far as we know, this law best record Scioto Township has ever made in a dis- trict tournament. ribolores Beavers Elwin Beavers GIRLS' TRACK TEAM The following girls participated in the track -. .
