High swimming team climaxed a rather poor season by taking third place in the State Meet. Although they lost all of their dual meets they made an enviable record for such a small squad. The team was ably captained this year by Ted Guthe and was coached by Michigan's star diver, Ben Grady. The first and last meets were dropped to Ypsilanti Roosevelt, while the Cubs' next con- queror was Ann Arbor High. The next two were dropped to Pontiac and jackson. The next meet the Cubs had a good chance to win but were hampered by illness and lost to Trenton. The other meets were lost to Ypsilanti Central, River Rouge, and Monroe. In the State Meet the team of Comstock, Allen, Edmonson, and Guthe won the 200 yard free style relay with a time of 1150.6 with Ypsi Central some five yards back. The team of Edmonson, Allen and Guthe were second to Ypsilanti Roosevelt in the 150 yard medley relay losing only by a split second. Comstock earned a third place in the individual 50 yard free style race whole Hayward picked up a fourth in the diving. Moehlman, Blumenthal, Wiselogle all showed up well in the preliminary events. Bill Comstock led the team in scoring with Captain Ted Guthe close behind. Other scorers for the Cubs this year were Allen, Edmonson, Blumenthal, Hayward, Moehlman, Easlick, Wiselogle, and Trytten. Bill Comstock was chosen by this year's squad to captain next year's team. The chances for a better season should be very good since only three seniors, Guthe, Allen and Moehlman, will be lost through graduation. Page Twenty-fue

DUFFENDACK ITH only two veterans, Ted Bragg and Bill Dobson, and three substitutes, Bill Wood, Frank Whitney, and Fitch Tillotson, returning from last year's squad, Basketball Coach Fred East molded a smooth running combination which won eight games and lost but five. The Cubs ended in a triple tie for third place in the Huron League having lost only three league games. The substitutes on this year's team were Art Hopkins, Doug Gibb, jim Wootlruif, john McMurray, Stan Duifendack-all of last year's second team, with jack Shar- man and Dick Hewett, a sophomore. The Cubs won the season opener against Farmington and dropped the second game to the alumni. They took the Huron League opener from Chelsea, 13-12, and scored their second League victory against Clinton, 25-17. They took their third straight League victory from Tecumseh by a score of 15-14, but dropped their next game to the League Leaders, Dundee, by a 20-16 score. The next three games were easily won from Lincoln by a 26-20 score, Belleville by a 20-9 score, and Milan by a 31-20 score. Playing without the services of Bill Dobson, star center and high point man, the Cubs were defeated by Roosevelt 27-12 in their second League defeat. In an exciting game the St. Thomas School took the Good Neighbors Trophy away from the Cubs by defeating them 28-25, in an overtime period. The following week the Cubs re- ceived their third League setback at the hands of Saline in a disheartening game by a score of 26-20. Northville beat U. High in their first start in the District Tournament, only after the Cubs had waged a spirited and well fought battle, by a score of 20-18, and eliminated the Cubs from the tournament for the third time in three years. The Cubs second team had a fair season, winning six and losing six games. Bob Lovell was the high point man and leader of the Cublettes. Page Tweniy-four

High's track squad turned in the most successful season on record by winning . all of their dual meets, winning the Huron League Title for the first time on record, taking a fourth in the regional tournament, and sending two men to the state meet.

Sharman, and Walcott. The Cubs defeated Chelsea 63-14, Belleville 59-18, Roosevelt 50M to 385 in dual meets with these schools. Without the services of Sample, star sprint man, the Cubs annexed a fourth in the regional.

In the state meet Dobson got a fifth place in the low hurdles and a sixth place in the broad jump. In the same meet Tillotson took a fourth in the mile run. The Cubs triumphantly closed the 1937 season with the Huron League victory. In this meet the Cubs were 20 points above Roosevelt, their nearest rival, annexing a total of 48 points.
