r ..' 'I'I'Ill'llll '$ F . ,lllllllllllllllllllll '2' Onl... 4 Sacramento Junior College Games The first game of the season was played on March 15 against Sacramento Junior College and resulted in an 11 t0 0 win for the Sacramento boys. The game showed a lack of teamwork in our newly organized squad but it also convinced us all that we had a team of heavy hitters. Tavernettits home run was the feature of the game. Another game of a practice nature with this team resulted in a 3 t0 3 tie. St. Marys Game March 22, the Aggies journeyed down to Oakland and played St. Marys College on their home diamond. The Catholic boys outclassed our team and won 23 t0 5; as St. Marys has already cinched the State intercollegiate title a loss to them is not so had, also considering the short time that the Aggies had been playing. Arano pitched the entire game and garnered 3 hits. , St. Ignatius Game The next Monday, March 24, the Aggie team went to San Francisco and played and 10st to St. Ignatius College in a closely contested game by the score of 7 t0 6. This game was hard fought from beginning to end and only won by the ttSaintstt in the last inning. ttBud2 Eames pitched a good game and would have won but for a few unavoidable breaks.

Although a new man at track his perseverance soon gained him a place on the squad. Toward the end of the season he became a steady point Winner in his favorite event, the pole vault, and took places in both the California Freshmen and Nevada meets. This season Cap- tain Wright has not confined himself to the pole vault alone but is improving rapidly and has become a point getter in the broad jump and low hurdles. ttPerdi Will always be remembered and respected, not only for his track abil- ity but for his cheerful disposition and amiable character; he is certainly a model for his followers.
