It will be readily seen that the success of the Fair was not due to the prize money offered, but because of the pupils' pride and interest in school work. We hope that succeeding classes will make the School Fair an annual event and bring not only much pleasure but much benefit to themselves. 27

ATHLETICS The national game has always found among its most ardent admirers the puplis of Sterling High School. Baseball not only develops good mus- cular coordination, rapid and accurate thinking, but at the same time affords sane and wholesome recreation. We believe that we are on a par with any other High School in this locality, considering the practice ground, and the number from which we may select a team. During the fall of 1917 three games were played, one with Creston, and two with Smithville,g two of these games we lost because the ability of some players was not known and consequently they were not properly placed. The result of these games was as follows: Smithville .... 7 Sterling .... 8 Battery .... Johnson and Smith Creston ...... 7 Sterling .... 1 Battery .... Johnson and Smith Smithville .... 8 Sterling .... 7 Battery .... Johnson and Smith The season of 1918 was inaugurated by electing Percy Moine Man- ager, and Paul Johnson Captain. The line up: J. Johnson ..... r. f. Smith ......... 3 b. Moine ........... c. McCoy . ........ 2 b. Steiner . ....... c. f. Lance ......... 1. f. Davidson . ...... 1 b. Amstutz ....... s. s. P. Johnson ...... p. The first game was played at Smithville. Our opponents were unable to see the ball and fifteen strike-outs was the record of Johnson. This coupled with a home run by Smith, soon put the game on ice. The next game was played at home with Smithville. Steiner, after pitching two innings, was relieved by Johnson, who also came across with good work with the willow in the form of a three-bagger. The results of these games were: . FIRST GAME Smithville .... 7 Sterling .... 12 Battery .... Johnson and Moine SECOND GAME Smithville .... 4 Sterling .... 5 Battery .... Johnson and Moine Several games are yet to be played with Creston and Rittman, and perhaps Leroy. We expect to win our share of the remaining games, for we believe we have found a line-up that is a winner. ATHLETIC EDITOR. 29
