VARSITY TRACK 1950 PIKED shoes flying, the Trinity Track Team came through with fine showings in a schedule consisting of four dual and four invi- tation meets. The runners downed Hackley 59-45, Riverdale 51M-40n, and Trinity-Pawling 53-51, in a hard-fought contest. The one loss was suffered at the hands of an extremely strong Poly Prep team. In the Trinity, Trinity-Pawling invitation, the New Yorkers annexed fifteen places, five of which were firsts, to finish second among the seven entries, closely behind a victorious Stony Brook team, The team again placed second in the Ivy League, this time behind Poly Prep. Traveling up to Tarrytown for the Hackley invitation meet, the Varsity came home with only a fifth place, finishing before three other schools. Again battling Stony Brook for top honors in the A. A. P. S. meet, the Blue and Gold lacking strength, had to be content with a second place. During the season Ralph Fessenden lowered the 440 record by over three seconds to 53.1. Spiros Segalas, Trinity's weight man mnmm cum beare, set new records in the shotput and the discus with distances of 46 feet 3 inches and 111 feet 5 inches, respectively. The sprinting of White and Fessenden, the distance running of Folsom, and the pole vaulting of Schultz, combined to gather many valuable points for the team. Credit should be given to Dick Heller, Harry Scott, Johnny Gleason, Dick Taylor, john Lamb, and Peter Rogers, who performed capably throughout the season. if? :M N 5, if X 2 fs Z, Sealed-Bohman, Heller, S, Segalas, Folsom, Amill, Bures, Taylor, Fessenden, Gleason, Schultz.

VARSITY BASEBALL 1950 I N f it ll 6 YI ,5- ITH a potentially good team, but hampered by inclement weather and lack of practice, the Varsity Baseball Team ended its season with a favorable 8-4 record. Opening the campaign with three straight league victories over Adelphi, Poly Prep, and Stony Brook, the squad was finally downed by Pingry, 8-5, and Horace Mann, 1-0, on an unearned run. Following these two setbacks the Blue and Gold jumped back to the winning column with victories over Riverdale, Englewood, St. Paul's, Trinity- Pawling, and Horace Mann. Upsets at the bats of St. Paul's and Stony Brook eliminated the team from placing in the Ivy League. Bill Kohl was the outstanding player on the squad. He led the team in batting with a .333 average, and was the leading pitcher with four wins and one setback. Bob Bean southpawed his way to the other four victories, but lost two games. Tom White picked up the other loss at Pingry. Lou Magelaner, a fine fielding first baseman, was the second leading hitter at .29O. Bruce johnson and Don Morris combined their talents at second base and shortstop respectively, to pull off some flashy double plays. johnny Watson rounded out the Blue and Gold infield at third base, while Gabby Avram caught from his position behind the plate. Patroling the outer regions were Tommy White in left field, Charlie Sheldon in center, and either Kohl or Bean in right, depending on the pitcher for the day. 46
