O Power at the bat and a classy infield is the description of the current St. Thomas baseball team given by the Aquin sports staff. Thus put on the spot by the local boys the squad is expected to produce. The classy infield is made up of co- captains F ent Horwath and Art Kaess at second and shortstop, respectively, with freshman Bob Mitsch at first and Joe Mur- ray on the keystone sack. Gene O'Brien catches. Coach Wee Walsh has a number of pitchers to draw from with Pete Kramer, Don Lentsch and Don Peschel leading the list.

Zan! 0 Continuing the mushroom growth which it has enjoyed since it was promoted to a major sport, the Track team has risen to a position where it is considered a serious threat to all opponents and not just an- other match. Strength of the Tommy track team lies in the field events, with Captain Hugo Ren- den, state shot-put record holder, leading the way. He has the assistance of Frank Wambach in the shot-put and discus events but holds down individual honors with the javelin. In the first meet of the season against St. Olaf, Renden took first place f . 4 in these three events. In the track events, the rapid improve- ment of Clay Pardo, former Academy star, Charles Kronschnable and John Huebach is taken as a definite sign of good days ahead, according to student-coach George Kenny. All things taken into consideration, the 68-58 victory the Toms hung up in the first meet of the year after having taken third in the State meet last year shows remark- able improvement in this sport. For the five years previous to last season, the Toms had not won an inter-collegiate track meet. I ' Q95 E I s i' 1 3 I w,M. Lgfi za right, -int row: M. Toryamki, T. McGfathh, L. Mikulay, Lieb, j.
