This game was very uninteresting, it being a walk-away for South. The Bulldogs scored twenty-three markers to Academy's two. With this start, chances look very good for South turning out another base- ball championship. There is much good material on the squad and Coach Ross can be depended upon to maintain a fighting team in the local league. The mound is ably taken care of by Carol Meadows, Elmo Hulbert, and Walter Denny, the receiving is done by Bill Barton, probably the best back- stop in local high schools. Pe-ttibone is at first base, while at the other infield posi- tions are found '4Pudge Lombard at second, Bus Smith at short, and Phil Gutter at third. The utility intielders are many, Robert Donner, Jim Kerns, Fred Kristoff, Mlalter Thackary, and Clarence Dolby. At the outfield positions are Captain Holzbacker, left field, George Kraft, center field, and Johnny Hohl and Johnny Ivanhoff, right field. The substitute outiielders are Harry Richter, Lawrence Moeller, and Edgar Powell. muInnunuummIIunIInnnunnmmIInIII1InnIIummnlIrnIluIummIInlIIanIununIIummInuInnunanIIu-mmIIIannnnInanInuummmmmlnmumunn nunmnm

A basket by Bus Smith in the final seconds of play brought South from behind and turned what looked like defeat, for the first game, into victoryy South displayed wonderful form in Winning the second game, and as the lead which they held throughout the game was not comfortable, the game was very interesting and exciting. After ending up the local court season, South, along with other local high schools, entered the annual Central Ohio Basketball Tournament which was held under the auspices of Ohio Nlfesleyan University at Delaware, Ohio. The Southerners drew a bye for the first round of play, but met North in the second round. By defeating North, South accomplished a feat in which all the other high schools of the city failed. The North High quintet weakened under the heavy bombardment of the fighting Bulldogs and lost 23-20. It was one of the greatest battles ever staged in a Central Ohio Tournament and each one of the White Clad Lads played his very best until the final gun sounded. After putting up such a valiant ight against the powerful North team, the Blue and Gray cage teams hit an unexpected snag and sank to defeat at the hands of 1Vest High.

S-OUTH HIGH ANNUAL ,gig Wooniaoao HOLTZBACKER XV-XRREN WIEDERT Captain of the Baseball Team Cclptuuzi of the Track Team Track Although but one letter man was back to work for a Blue and Gray track team, Coach Bash rounded the green material into shape and was able to enter in five events at the Ohio Relays. This team may not establish a record like the former teams of 1924-25 when Harry Riegel and Roger Grim represented us, but they will in all probability uphold our precedent of first class athletic teams. The chief candidates are Xkiarren Medert Ccaptainl and Henry Kielmeyer for the dashes, Francis Deshler for the shot putg Feistkorn for the hurdles: David Morrison for the high jump, Medert, Martin, Kielmeyer, Feistkorn, and Cross will take part in the rela.ys. Golf Mr. Ross organized a team to represent South in the local golf league to which East, Aquinas, Wlest, Trade, Academy, Bexley and Arlington belong. The Bulldog team rates strong in the league and is doped to finish high in the final standing. The members of the team are Rodey Kolb, captain and iirst man 5 Vtfilliam Arthur, second man, Marion Packard, third mang Lawrence Spires, fourth man, and Edward Erfurt, :fifth man. The squad lost a tough match to Arlington but recovered from the blow, dealt it in time to play Academy, May 1. This was an intresting tilt, as is indi- cated by the tie score, each team netting 7 1-2 points. 4 The team is improving steadily in its playing and we believe it will give the rival teams in the league a hard iight for the championship. NOTICE NVe regret that on account of the Annual going to press May 5, we are unable to review any sport events taking place after that date. 10B
