thletics in S. H. S. Athletics have always been of great importance in Swayzee High School. There has never been a time in the last seventeen years that this school has not been represented by some kind of an athletic team. Swayzee has had some of the best football and base ball teams represented at their time. Much public sentiment was developed against football due chietly to the accidents resulting from the games. The game was stopped in the fall of 1911. Baseball was then introduced and in all probability would have become a leading sport in the high school but on account of the shortness of the seasons. These conditions which discouraged football and base ball made basket ball the leading school game. The first high school basket ball games were played outdoors. Later a hall was secured in one of the business rooms. The busi- ness men formed an association and built a gymnasium which was completed in January 1913. The best basket ball team that the school has had was produced in that year. The team of 1913 won ninety percent of its games played that season. This year the team has made a strong ellfort but won only thirty'-live percent of the games it played. ' The one game of interest was the Fairmount H. S. on our own lloor which was a fast and interesting game from start to linish resulting in a tie. But the Swayzee boys will always count this their victory. NYith a loyal body of students and material which remains a team can be developed that will rival teams of the past and bring fame and glory to the old S. H. -HARDESTY '20
