Lettermen forthe year were Ellroy Jensen, Ralph Lafferty, Max Green, Charles Fox, senior, and Captain Wiper, Warren Smith, AI Taylor, Gerald Heustis, Ralph Heustis, and Dick Smith, returning. Leonard Scroggin, varsity spring ace, was coach for the season, giving him two consecutive state championships. TENNIS Only one letterman was available to the racquet wielders at the begin- ning of the season, but several prospects showed promise, and prospects were for a successful season. Matches were scheduled with Eugene, St. Mary's, Roseburg, Corvallis, and Salem. Eugene was defeated in the team's first match, before publication of the Duckling. Eldon Platt was the sole returning letterman, while Estley Schick, Ed Luckey, Bill Moxley, John Hulten and Paul Muller completed the squad. INTRAMURAL A complete intramural program was promoted by Ray Hendrickson which included touch football, basketball, volleyball, swimming and softball.

topic subject of the state sport public discussion following the Axemen victory. Prospects for next ,season are good, although nine regulars graduate: Walt Rush, Don Brace, Marion Mann, Harry Johnson, Jack Cady, Captain Fred Booth, Ellroy Jensen, Max Simpson, and Dan Read. This loss will be keenly felt, but with Captain-elect Al Taylor, Maurice Hunter, RodfLewman, Clinton Mann, Willie Palanuk, Harry Spence, and Warren Smith returning, the nucleus of another fine team is available. Maury Van Vliet, ex-Oregon star, and Bill Kenna, ex-O. S.C, luminary, assisted by Ray Hendrickson, athletic director, coached the team. Archie Zarewski was manager for the season. BASKETBALL University High's sole bid for fame during the basketball season this year was that the team had the unique,experience of playing against four teams which later entered the tournament, one of which won the tournament. During the season the Tiders played Ashland, Roseburg lwhom they de- featedl, Corvallis, and Bellfountain, all of whom later played in the Salem tournament. i The basketball squad finished in fifth place this year, one notch higher than the team last season. The team won six and lost eight in league play. Prospects for the I936-37 season are encouraging with only two regulars, Bill Rosson and Ed O'Reilly, and a reserve, Ray Houghton, lost by graduation. Rod Lewman, Gordon Bailey, Clinton Mann, Paul Muller Warren Smith, and Willie Palanuk are lettermen returning, Dan Read, Marion Mann, and Jack Cady were lost to the squad at mid-year after earning their letters in the first half of the campaign by the eligibility count. Arne Lindgren and Ray Hndrlckson coached the team, Mahlon Pengra was the team manager, and Bill Rosson was elected.honorary captain at the season's close. BASEBALL Lack of seasoned pitchers was the chief lament when the springtime sport rolled around this spring. Lettermen returned to every position in the infield except the chucker's post. Coach Jack Woodard soon filled this vacancy by shifting Bill Rosson from first to that position and filling the first sack vacanacy with Gordon Bailey. Alton Baker filled the need for a -southpaw pitcher, and the chances were for a prosperous horeshide year at U, H. S., in their competition in the newly formed Greater Willamette Valley League. Under the new set-up, games were scheduled with Junction City, St. Mary's, Corvallis, Eugene, Springfield and Lebanon. Returning lettermen were Bill Rosson, Tom Taylor, Willie Palanuk, Tam Mills, and Bob Marshall. Fred Waller acted as baseball manager. SWIMMING The mermen of UniversityfHigh were faced with lack of competition this year as other schools dropped the sport of swimming for financial reasons, Only two high schools in the state were left for the Tide to compete with. Of these, Eugene twice took the count by a wide margin, and April l the Tide mermen .splashed out a 46-29 victory over Salem to retain the state cham- pionship, The team dropped two non-conference meets, a close one to Vancouver, and to the strong O. S. C. rook team, 48 to 27. ln the annual Amateur Ath- Z4
