But regardless of defeat or victory, the team always turned in a fine showing, and let the opposing team know that it had taken in a real game. A few of the high-light thrillers” of the year were the games with: 1) St. Mary’s of Anderson, one of the hotly contested games of the season, in which the Gaels managed to defeat the Cubs by a score of 40-37, although losing the victory later because of an ineligible man; 2) Joliet in which, on the Cubs’ home floor, a hard-fought game was tumbled from St. Joseph’s lap when Condon, a Joliet man, sank a field goal from far out, with twelve seconds of playing time remaining, and St. Joseph’s leading, 29-28; 3) Central Catholic of Hammond, on the Cubs’ floor, wherein St. Joseph’s gained a victory, 27-24, in an overtime period. The leading scorers for the Cubs were Cap” Brading with 200 points, followed by Bob Greene with 123. St. Joseph’s amassed a total of 574 points to its opponents’ 570. Capt. Bob Schmelter deserves great praise for his fine defensive play throughout the ? season.

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.
