A great tournament team, that was the ver- dict regarding Brother Carey's 1949 binglers. Boasting only an average record ot three wins and six losses in seasonal activities, the Prep clubbers swept tive out oi six tournament tilts to add the District cup to the trophy case and to come within two innings oi representing the region in the state finals. Steady tossing by veteran chucker Lloyd Haydon and rookie Prank Falise, plus timely willow work by the live .300 hitters in the regu- lar line-up accounted for the late season surge oi the Purple nine. To account for the District diadem the lads conquered Bardstown, 14-75 whipped Taylors- ville, 13-5, and whitewashed host squad Mount Washington as Lloyd Haydon twirled one-hit ball to win, 5-O. Playing the regionals on the diamond oi Western State College at Bowling Green, St. Ioe edged a highly regarded Kyrock nine, 5-3, blanked St. Charles ll-O, but wavered afield to bow in the finals to Bowling Green, 8-5.

PARADE-Pitcher Lloyd Haydon. who had won the regional opener from a touted Kyrock nine. 5-3. and Frank Falise. who had homered against Kyrocl: and had chucked a shut- out against St. Charles, are given a free ride by their mates after the first day of regional play.

di' PREPAREDNESS-Helped by Gene Kenney llettl and by Charlie Iustice, Iohn Young is ready to face the camera. Helped by his Catholic education, he is ready to face the world. At the right. graduates hear Father Kaiser. Mass celebrant Father Lally is seated in the sanctuary. Twenty-six seniors, plus one war veteran, received St. Ioe Prep diplomas this past lune from the hcmds of Headmaster Brother Vincent. They thus became part of a larger group of alumni of the school, and moved on to college, to vocational school, to positions in business, industry, or agriculture, or even to training for the priesthood or brotherhood. lf they cling to the principles instilled in them at the Prep, they will always have a bulwark against the cynical materialism of the day. f'9 x 1 4 1 A- ,Q Y f vt ,W r , , '- , .
