'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 .

IIHHHHIURHL CUUHCIL The Intramural Council, with Fred Rowley as president and Al Streett as vice president, is elected by the male students at the beginning of each school year. Their main purpose is to promote athletic activities among the men which they have done through intramural sports. Touch football, basketball, softball and volleyball teams have been organized through the efforts of the council. There have also been some individual sports tournaments. About one hundred fellows participated in intramural sports this year. Another aim of the council has been, with the assistance of Coach Watts, to promote the varsity sports through stu- dent body interest. A huge bon fire and other smaller pep rallies were held. 1 'N'-+---,-Q.- , -i..,...,,,,-.-.-...1, .....,....,..s.... .. -, , -- Q-ii.Q..,,,,, bfil .nt ,ll -El rin -n ia
