TENNIS The University High tennis team suffered a severe blow this year with the loss of Eldon Platt, captain and number one man, through ineligibility, and Russell Helter- line, number two man, out early in the season with a broken arm. However, led by Bill Moxley, acting captain, the team managed to win one match and tie another. The season was a success as far as interest registered, with 15 players turning out. Members of this year's team were Bill Moxley, Russell Helterline, Bill Graham, Allan Gard, Dick Smith, Eldon Jacobson, and Leonard Gard. Graduating lettermen are Bill Graham and Russell Helterline.

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.
