BASEBALL Hendrickson, Dunn. Libke, Gard, zarewski, Barger Smith, Bailey, Perin, Wilson, Lewman, Skade, Marshall, Baker, Bro BASEBALL The Uni High diamond athletes, when they turned out, were greeted with two hard blows-one, the lack of pitchers. HBunky Baker was the only capable pitcher on the squad. The other blow was the bad weather this spring which caused several games to be cancelled. The outstanding feature of the semon was a 3 to 2 game with Eugene High. The Axmen finally won out in the last inning. but the game was a thriller, no matter who won. Graduating members of the team are Alton Baker, Gordon Bailey, Warren Smith, Rod Lewman, Bob Marshall, and Bob Brooke. Andy Hurney of the U. of O. assisted Ray Hendrickson in coaching duties. Howard Lorence was manager. GOLF Having completed one of the heaviest playing schedules in the history of the school, the University High golf team at the time this went to press was going through intensive preparation for the state golf tournament, tentatively scheduled for the latter part of May. By virtue of games won, the campus divot-diggers were conceded a likely chance for state championship honors. This year University High was represented by Captain Kneeland Stone, Erling Omlid, Martin McCormick, Lewis Torgeson, and Ralph Huestis. Graduating lettermen are Kneeland Stone and Martin McCormick. Martin Mc- Cormick acted as manager for the team. McCRADY'S CAFE JOE RICHARDS MEN'S STORE HBY our food shall we be knownu MERCHANDISE OF FINE QUALITY and Next door to lst NQt'I.
