The Shullion Spor-l's Shull's year in athletics was, a busy one. We started in Sept-ember with football. The boys were small but willing, and. by the time the season had started, Shull had a team which made us all sit up and take notice. The line was made up largely of seventh and eighth grade boys, and the backfield was composed of the smallest and light- est boys we ever had on our team, but what the boys lacked in size and experience they made up in spirit and iight. The result was that we won half of our games including a 33 to 0 victory over Easton Jr. High. A Our basketball team was one of the best we have had since the championship team of 1931. We won all our games played against teams in our class with the exception of two games lost to Wolf Jr. High, which school had an excellent team. The entire season was marked by the good spirit and team- work among the players, and the results of this were shown in the way in which the team played its games. In the annual Junior High School Swimming Meet held at the Y. M. C. A. we finished third. There were six teams enter- ed and the competition was keen. The work of Bill Singley, Bob Sassaman, and Edgar Will was outstanding. Intramural athletics made it possible for every boy to take part in some form of athletics. The boys enjoyed the diiferent leagues, and played the games with a great deal of interest and enthusiasm. T Too much can not be said of the splendid school spirit shown by the Shull pupils in supporting their athlet-ic teams. Attendance at games was increased, and the Shul1ites stood back of the teams in both victory and defeat. Considering everything, our year in athletics- was a most. satisfactory o-ne, and we hope that next year's teams will be even more successful. g Football Team Shull had a v-ery successful season in football this yearg winning half of the games, or three out of six. The team was one of the outstanding groups in the league. The players work- ed hard under the supervision of Mr. Everitt. Everyone receiv-- ed a letter. The scores were: forty-seven
