OF PROGRESS Bauer Shul Tremere Gibson The Tennis Season Lead by Captain Dick Bauer and supported by John Shultz, Arnold Tremere, and John Gibson, ranking players number two, three, and four, respectively, the Sioux Falls College tennis team served the school an undefeated season. Two matches were played against Augustana, two against Yankton, and one against State College. The fact that these boys are well known and highly rated racketeers is questioned by no one who has seen them in action. Ninety-seven

Bottom Row: Hughes, Taylor, Iverson, Kentfield Intramural Basketball In the interclass league the Freshmen unquestionably proved their superiority in winning both the first and second half of the cage race. During the first half of the season they ran up high scores and were seldom pushed to strenuous play. The second half of the season showed renewed vigor and stiff competition offered on the part of all teams. Erwin Iverson lead the winning cagers. Ninety-six

Track Captain Kenneth Dennis Dennis, during his two years at Sioux Falls College, was a three sport man and a star in each one. Kenny carried a heavy scholastic load together with his athletic program and proved to be a strong enough individual both physically and mentally to become a favorite among the lettermen and the students. Dennis has not ended his support to SFC because of his graduation, but is constantly on the sidelines urging the men on to greater heights. The Season When Coach Francis Olsen issued his war cry for track aspirants last spring, an un- usually fleet footed band of Braves answered the call. Relay strength was promised, but little was known of what Sioux Falls college would be able to offer in the sprints, long distance runs, hurdles, and pit and field events. On the sprint team, Kenneth Dennis and Donald Tanquist were on hand to reclaim their places. Carl Ageton and Bob Munn, Sioux Falls high school cinder path luminaries of the previous year, and Bill Brennan, Sherman speedster, all of whom had placed in high school track meets, were the contenders for the other berths. In the mile baton-passing event, the Olsenmen were destined to show much improve- ment. Dennis and Tanquist, mainstays in this race a year ago, and Ageton and Werle, Parker, both of whom placed in the state 440 event last year, were to form a promising group. Champs Vie For Places Challenging one another for places on the two-mile team were: Kenneth Rost, Sioux Falls, who won both mile and half-mile events in the state meet; Paul Semm, teammate of Rost ' s on the Washington high quartet which placed second in the national interscholastic meet at Chicago last year; and three members of the college combination, Charles Davis, Littlefork, Minn.; Emil Raveling, Ocheyedan, la., and Kermit Jacobson, Wakonda, who won a place in the college two-mile conference run the previous spring. A medley team composed of Rost for the half-mile; Ageton, Werle, or Tanquist for the 440, and Dennis for the 220 was of calibre to demand much favorable comment. A hearty bunch of veterans and newcomers were ready to collect points in the special events. Grant Farnsworth, Alvin Fletcher, the handy man , and Bob Minn proved to be a trio of fine hurdlers. Jack Harrington, Fletcher, Munn, and Tanquist were all con- tenders in the broad jump, while Harrington and Fletcher were to carry the Braves ' hopes in the high jump. The Huisinga brothers, Barrend and David, and Johnny Gibson, huskies of the squad were throwing things all over the campus in an effort to get in shape for such field events as the javelin, discus, and shot put. The pole vaulting jobs were to go to Bob Winter and George Downing. Ninety-eight
