FCP 1934 School anol Sports Mix Well at South , L 1 Athletics bs I OUTH has always been very interested and prominent in athletics and has sponsored varsity teams for interscholastic games since 1919, when South met Bowling Green in a football game. In years past South has engaged in inter- scholastic competition in football, baseball, basket- ball, track, and at one time, golf and swimming. This year and last year, however, track and baseball were entirely omitted from the sports curriculum with the exception of cross country. In order to provide sufficient recreation, intramural teams were organized to play volleyball, playground ball, horseshoes, free throwing, running events, and, of course, basketball. South is known as a school that always sends on the field or floor a clean, fighting, scrapping team that never gives up regardless of the odds. Supervisors THLETICS were again this year under the direction of Mr. C. E. Gaskins, head of the physical education department: Mr. M. F. Seitz, head football coach, and Mr. C. F. Sinclair, faculty manager. Mr. Seitz, who coached the football team and assisted in the coaching of the basketball team, is a graduate of Defiance College. He has attended various coaching schools, including those conducted by such famous foot- ball mentors as Kizer, Lamber, Rockne, and Meanwell. Mr. Gaskins, a graduate of Depauw and of Columbia, was head basketball and assistant football coach. He has also attended coaching schools at Notre Dame, Butler, and Northwestern. Mr. Sinclair as faculty manager has almost become a tradition at South. This is his eighth year of service in this capacity. Coach Seitz Mr. Sinclair Coach Gaskins E x .. 1,
