Soccer Ball FTER several years of unsuccessful attempts to organize football teams to represent the Three Rivers High School, it was decided by the students and faculty to give the game of Soccer a trial, as it ap- peared to be the only game with a chance for success in the fall. No one in town knew anything of the game, so rule books were procured and the game attempted. As this was the situation in, and the course of the other neighboring high schools, we were willing to play the game with them, beginning after but one week of practice. Constantine, White Pigeon and Centreville were played with as much success to our team as could be expected under the circumstances. The boys became enthusiastic over the game and turned out in large numbers for practice. The following boys formed the squad and developed some unusually good players, who will form the nucleus of a strong team next fall: Edward Drumm, Burr Drumm, Walter Langley, Ernest Knapp, James Comin, Ed. Baker. Arthur Luck, Glee Wolf, Frank Krull, Harold Sloan, Chas. Rowe, Glenn Pulver, Raymond Sweitzer, Alva Godshalk, Clark Jacobs, Elgy Slack, Donald Whitesell and Leo Ash. At the spring meeting of the County Superintendents' Association a schedule of Soccer games for next fall was adopted, and all the high schools of the county are planning on rarticipating. From all indi- cations now present it appears that we have found the fall sport suitable for all the high schools of St. Joseph County. -M1'.

I3aH UE to the wet condition of the diamond, base ball practice was late in getting started this spring, and with only four of last year's team out for practice the prospects for a Winning team looked rather gloomy. Practice began as soon as the diamond was in shape and the vacant places on the team were soon filled. We were scheduled to play our first game with Mendon, but being unable to play an eligible team Mendon decided to cancel all her games. This made it necessary that we play the strong Colon team, our first game at Colon, and due to lack of practice on our part We Were defeated 8 to 2. Our second game was played with Centreville on our diamond and profiting by the experience gained in the game with Colon, coupled with a week of hard practice we easily defeated them 12 to 8. Two weeks later we played Colon on our diamond and in a hotly contested game defeated them 4 to 1. Our next game will be played with Centreville at Centreville, and following this the tie game will be played with Colon at Centreville. We are confident of winning both of these games and expect to represent the Northern Division on Field Day for the county championship. I3ase TEAM G. H. Ringle -. , 7 cce.. --Coach G.
