The whole of Troy’s 1953 power was in these two classes which means they are all returning to chow their heels again. Troy enjoyed mild success in five of the six major track meets last year and hopes to repeat this year along with a few additional victories. All of these things point to a strong 1954 campaign. Most of Troy’s points should come from the middle distances and relay which is where Troy is very strong. Fine spirit and a large turnout are expected this spring. These factors should aid greatly to Troy High’s high hopes of their first Oakland ‘‘B’’ conference champion- ship.

(Sage ll Troy High's 1953 baseball team had a poor season, highlighted only by Ray Cischke's no hitter against Fitzgerald April 28. Mr. Goodwin's Colts, led by Captain Richard Tuzinsky, look forward to a good season this year. A strong outfield and many good prospects for the infield should spell trouble for the Coalt's foes, providing Mr. Goodwin can find some substantial ip moundsmen to carry the load. ih | Baseball I Scores Schedule ’ lf Opp. Troy Date Team Roseville 5 2 April 22 Roseville A Madison 3 2 April 27 Madison H.

The varsity consisted of captain Don i Powell, Bill Haney, Jim Hawley and George Catto. Backing up these strong four was the reserve q } squad, Dale Paes, Mickey Hawley, Bonne Char, and Raymond Chickering. Along with these same boys for the 1954 season will be a new candidate, Dayton Shanahan. Headed by Don Powell who consistantly shoots in the low seventies and who was fourth in last , year's regional district tournament, the team, aided by a year's experience will be out in 1954 to set a few records and retain their championship. Among the teams they constantly overpower are Fitzgerald, Madison, Avondale, and Bloomfield. - 38 - a p . Be STUSTET S FTHTSR a T STRRTFETRE O e S C
