'X if K -' BHSEBHLL The 1953 baseball team had a fairly good season with a record of four wins and three defeats. The team was cap- tained by center fielder Paul Wentling whose great speed and spirit made him a valuable asset. Karl Franklin in left field made his presence felt by means of his rifle throwing arm and big bat. First baseman Phil Meredith came up with an unorthodox batting stance and turned in one of the highest batting averages of the team. Other regulars were Russ Wentling in right field, John Anderson catching, Tom Christie at second base, Harry Sink playing shortstop, and John Carman at third base. The bulk of the pitching chores fell upon Marc Ruger. A sore arm at the beginning of the season forced Marc to Change his whole pitching style. With this in mind, his pitching record is a fine personal tribute. The greater part of the remainder of the pitching was done by Ted Shelling. Some high spots of the season were a fourteen inning win over Lincoln and a one run victory over R C S J and home runs by Karl Franklin and Dick Cossaboon xv -v-t it 'facile Warsaw . we' sul 'F I 34' If is W r..a-ul , . . . . li Q, ' -JL .
