Inter-scholastic and Intra-mural Boxing South Side's annual boxing tournaments, it seems, become bigger and bet- ter every year. And this year's slugfest, the sixth ot the annual tournaments held thus lar, was by all means one ot the best. Starting on March 18, boxing cards were held every Tuesday and Thursday up to the finals on April 7. Between cards, Brother lames Powers, director of the tournament, tound time to run oft two inter-scholastic boxing meets with Missouri Military Academy and the high school champions of south- eastern Missouri. These inter-scholastic meets, incidentally, were the first ever to be held in the St. Louis district. The encounter with Missouri Military Academy saw the Dragon boxing team take nine of eleven bouts. On the other hand, the southeastern Missouri champs were able to gain a 4-4 tie with South Side. Tournament finals, carded a few days after the second box- ing meet, were all that could be asked for in points of interest, color, and showmanship. As each pair of final- 5 ists stepped into the ring in new robes and trunks, the ring lights were darkened and the boxers Q names were announced as colored spotlights ' played upon them.

Bieg bosebo I I dragons After inclement weather had forced two false starts, South Side's baseball season got under way on April 22, when the Dragons defeated McBride, 4-3. This victory makes matters appear very promising for South Side, as far as the Prep League championship is concerned. In pre-season write-ups, sports writers of the daily papers had hailed McBride as the next Prep League base- ball champ, due to the fact that its team was composed mainly of players from last year's Aubuchon-Dennison team, the American Legion district champions. The Dragons, however, proved that they were good, too. The team is well balanced in hitting, pitching, and fielding. Eight veterans are on the squad, and these, together with many capable replacements, make the team a formidable aggregation. The regular squad shapes up as follows: left field, August Bieg, center field, Roy Niehoff, right field, Ted Oldenburg, third base, Bill Kennealy, short stop, Ed Auerg second base, lim Gillick, first base, lohn Lewandowskig and catcher, loe Garagiola. Pitching assignments are taken over by veterans Don Schultz, Bill Suda, George Roedner, and rookie Bob O'Leary. With coach Bro. Bill Siemer at the helm, great things are expected of the Dragon varsity baseball team. graduating stars From left to right: I. Gillick, A. Bieq, G. Roedner, W. Suda, W. Kennealy, R. Niehoft, E.
