CROSS COUNTRY MANAGER Bob Stout COACH Mr. E. C. Offimror ,ffwzzme ,aww N the 1940 season Shaw's cross-country team participated in only four meets, splitting even by winning two and losing two. Upholding a tradition started a decade ago, this year's team again defeated Collinwood. This was also the most decisive victory of the season, for Shaw runners took first, second, and third positions. The team's two outstanding runners this season were Fred Iones and George Kall. Kall finished among the top three in every race. Iones finished first in the two races in which he competed, and also established a track record of 10 minutes 3 seconds in the West High meet. ln cross-country the team with the lowest score is declared the winner.

Losing the services of these vital parts of the team through graduation, Coach E. C. Offinger's boys managed to capture only one of the five Lake Erie League matches this fall. Elyria was their victim to the tune of a 5-0 defeat. The team went down to Cleveland Heights 5-0, Lakewood 4-lg Shaker 3-2, and Lorain 5-0. Although the scores of these matches are high, many games were won by the opponents only after a hard and fierce struggle. The school is looking forward to a great team next year as Ray Denslow, first singles man, will be back to lead the Red and Black to victory on the newly completed Forest Hill Courts.

All, rqlffoa Spank OMB fall, winter, or spring, there is always a sport to add enjoyment and healthy exercise in the lives of Shaw girls. The majority of girls participate in at least one sport during the year, while many feminine athletes enter as many as they possibly can. Because of the great number of persons involved in athletics, it is necessary to have a small group of girls, the Athletic Council, to organize and head the various sports. The Council elects two officers, president and secretary-treas- urer. This year these officers are, respectively, Betty Corbeau and Kay Hamilton. Each girl in the Athletic Council has a specific sport which she manages, either alone or with another member of the Council. For baseball there is Alice Buz- zelli, for basketball, Kay Hamilton and Adele Thayer, volleyball, Patty Squier and Virginia Kavanaugh, swimming, Ianet Barrett and Evelyn Wallace, riding, Mary Ellen O'Brien, winter sports, Polly Comegys and Betty Corbeau, modern dancing, Betty Lou Hamilton, and life saving, Roberta Byrum.
