Dove, Beddow, Blackwelder, A. Rubino, Rector Varsity Baseball HE 1963 VARSITY BASEBALL team has much potential and is expected to be a big power in the IAC. A good quality of pitching, a sound defence, and, at times, good hitting have enabled the team to compile a 4-1 record in the IAC thus far, the team,s only conference loss was to Sidwell Friends, and the Varsity is eager for revenge. The accent of hitting has been on power. Home runs by Tony Rubino, Buddy Hillow, and Captain Mack Wilkinson, several triples by Skip -Iakev Jacobsen have greatly aided the team's efforts. Jim Kreuttner, Buzzy Borda, and especially Tony Rubino have done a solid job on the mound. The infield is also solid. Rubino, Kreuttner, and Pete Dove share the duties at first base, Fresh- man Pete Radice handles second well, Hank Beukema covers much ground at short stop, Mack Wilkinson plays consistently at third, and the plate is guarded by ujakev Jacobsen. The outfield, after a shaky start, has progressed soundly under the coaching of Mr. Wild and the help of a new coach, Mr. Pasche. Buddy I-Iillow, John Rector, Tom Beddow, and Dave Baker are holding their own out in the pasture. As the season progresses, confidence will mount and the play will improve. The IAC Cham- pionship is the ultimate goal and is within reach. -MACK WILKINSON 88 ATHLETICS 1916-3

Miller, Dreher G mnastics N 1960, Mr. Bill Reames organized a handful of boys originally thought of as sports skippersf' With these boys he steadily built up a team which has become a significant part of the School's athletic life, it is known now as the gymnastics team. Although this team had no outside meets this year, its intramural program was extensive. The main purpose of gymnastics is to teach each hoy agility and co-ordination. Such agility is prac- ticed on all types of apparatus: the horizontal har, the parallel bars, the still rings, the trampo- line, the horse, and the ropes. The intramural meets are a test of each hoy's skill on each type of apparatus. The entire School was given the chance to see the performance of the team in an excellent show this year-a fine mixture of comedy, spectacle, and action. The gymnastics team strives for the progress of each boy, but this year it produced individ- ual standouts: Pat Redmond on the horizontal bars, Nick Hearne on the parallel bars and ropes, Bill Adams in Hoor exercises, Rick Beuttell on the trampoline, Warren Haugen in juggling, and Pete Beuttell, who excels in all events. The gymnastics team has become a strong part of the School's athletic program largely through the efforts of its coach, Mr. Reames. This team should he continued in the future as an interesting activity for its memhers and as an excellent medium of physical conditioning. -NICK I-IEARNE THE ALBANIAN 87

Adams Varsity Track ITH THE perennial enthusiasm of the coaches, headed by Sam Hoffman, and with all of last year's lettermen except Jim Meade, the Varsity Track team expects a strong season and per- haps the conference championship. As Coach Bauer said, Q'This is the most well-balanced squad I have coached since coming to St. Albans: our outlook is excellent. In the Episcopal Invitational Meet, for instance, we placed in many more events than ever in the past. In addition to the accomplishments of a few individual standouts such as Captain Tomas Miiller in the hurdle events and Kent Ronhovde in the broad jump, this team can expect frequent points from Willem Polak and Dan Woodruff in the sprintsg Leon Chatelain in the high jump, Bob Brooks in the shot put, Knuth-Winterfeldt and Jay Whitehead in the discus, Jon Arterton, Phil Bradley, R. T. Martin, and Frank Snowden in the middle and long distances, and Pat Red- mond in the low hurdles. Mr. Hoffman has scheduled twelve meets with such powerful teams as Episcopal, St. John's, Northwood, and Montgomery Blair. The highlight of the season, however, will be the IAC Track Meet, on May 11 at St. Albans. If there are no new injuries, such as the leg troubles which have hampered Captain Miiller, there is no reason why the Blues cannot experience the best track season of the past two decades. Commenting on the team as a whole, head coach Hoffman said, Them what can brag without lying, let 'em brag. -FRANK SNOWDEN THE ALBANIAN 89
