DON HARDY center GARY BYRNE S guard gaalefgaf CAPTAIN JACK PRENTICE guard A whistle blows, a ball is tossed, and thus begins another basketball season. But actually it doesn't begin here. The initial game is only the outcome of weeks of practice. During this time players lose their indivi- duality by playing, not for themselves, but for the team and the school. The pattern of steady and rigid practice earned for Roger Eichbrecht and Ed Connors honorable men- tion award on the Catholic All-City team. By working, Winning, and losing together, these boys developeda priceless spirit--that Servite spirit. Chosen by their teammates as the most valuable basketball players during the four years were: 1950 - .Tack Prentice 1952 - Don Hardy 1951 - Ed Connors 1953 - Jack Prentice ED CONNORS forward ROGER EICHBRECHT guard DON WILLIAMS BOB BLIZINSKI FR AN K DUNNIGAN forward forward guard LARRY MALLICK forward JERRY CATALIN A forward

Second row: Giacopelli, Waters, Lauderback, Mallick, Stancato, Vermeersch. Third row: Wilson, Sommers, Eichbrecht, Roeske, McGillivary. Fourth row: Wyllie, Williams, Schornack, Van Hove. Except for a brief stint on the diamond during the first year, Servite has not had an organized baseball team until this spring. Breaking into any league is difficult enough but the players have proved themselves real sportsmen by their spirit of improving despite defeat. Each game brings fewer errors, more hits for the home team, and better organization. It is for this that sports serve--to train the athlete in all that will make him an all-around Catholic gentleman. lllllllllllllil 1 y I If : 'MS Q ' 'Hum 4.4 ul '-' 'I IIIIIIIYIIIIII- - as T i r Uaraify VARSITY CLUB.
