High School squads found it difficult to penetrate the defense of the Cubs and to compete with their offense. There were also many hard-working substitutes always ready to back up the first team when called upon. As Twin Towers goes to press, the Cubs have won their opening game against Brook by the decisive score of 12-1. The feature of the game was Tony Serewicz’s home run. :■ mms m jail % t sspfkSfe , v. mmsi m y m ■ m B ii i - i m pK ■ ■■ I v ' ?- JRi . lligtll ■ . sissi w v »« I - ms Vt ' fmm m Vv- Vi® •: mm , - H m i - Ik - 4 IIS mf Kine % i mt ‘ Act • • 4 '

“Fighters is the only appropriate name for the Cubs in baseball. Though they had tasted bitter defeats in former years, the Cubs did not give up.

Tex Ritter dis¬ played a strong pitching arm, Tony Serewicz hit hard and fielded well, while Dick Hermann, Con Fecher, and Lee Hess played wide-awake ball.

Necessary to a well-rounded curriculum at St. Joseph’s is the intramural program consisting of football, basketball, and baseball. This program helps to develop ability, coordination, and love of sports in those boys who are either ineligible or who are not sufficiently talented athletically for the varsity teams. Director of the intramural program is Brother Louis Stock, C.PP.S., who coaches, arranges sched¬ ules, and referees games. Brother Louie’s ceaseless interest and tireless efforts insure the success of every intramural season. In this year’s intramural football competition, Art Clemens’ team won the championship by de¬ feating the club captained by John Scheidler. In basketball Jay Regan’s sprightly basketeers were victorious over Pete Holland’s team in the finals. As a reward for their victories, the champions were presented with gold footballs and basketballs at the annual Father-Son day banquet. Intramurals
