FATHER ROOF Father Roof, known and liked by all Academy students, came here in 1929. He was appointed Athletic Director in 1937, and ever since then had diligently and faithfully ( tried to make St. Joseph’s Academy more widely known. Father has achieved this end wonderfully. A constant fol¬ lower of the team, he has always been the truest fan of the Cubs.” Fr. Roof has fulfilled his job excellently, and all know that his efforts in behalf of St. Joe teams will (if possible) increase with the years. i DICK SCHARF Dick Scharf, the present mentor of St. Joseph’s Academy, took over the man¬ agerial reins in 1940 after completing a brilliant college career in the field of ath¬ letics at St. Joseph’s. While here he earned eleven letters in football, basketball, and baseball, and has frequently been referred to as the greatest halfback that St. Joseph’s has ever produced. Starting with the autumn baseball season of 1940, Dick turned out a truly great Academy team. In the autumn of 1941 his team won five and lost one. Dick’s first year as basket¬ ball coach can be termed highly success¬ ful, and the Academy is sure that in years to come he will, through his persistent ef¬ forts, develop athletic teams worthy to uphold the name of St. Joseph’s Acad¬ emy.

Baseball 1942 Baseball is in its second year as an inter-scholastic activity. Under the guidance of Coach Dick Scharf the Puma Cubs has become one of the best teams in this section, piling up an impressive record of 19 wins and 4 losses. Much credit for the successful fall season should go to the pitching staff of Joe Joseph, Lefty Gavin, and Ambrose Rushau, who allowed but 15 hits in six games. The standout performance of the year was Rushau’s no-hit, no-run victory over Reming¬ ton in which he struck out 14 of the 24 batters to face him. An enviable record is that of Captain Joe Wolford, who during the spring season of last year maintained a 500 batting average. The ability of the rest of the team predicts equal success for the future.
