Varsity Baseball HE BASEBALL team, under Joe Buckmaster was organ- ized only to give those who so desired a chance to participate in the game. Recruits were drawn both from the upper and lower division, conse- quently, games played in by the Pirates had no bearing on conference standings. Victory was a secondary matter. Probably the most promising player on the Buccaneer nine was short stop and captain, Art Lilly. lt is possible that he may in time become a baseballer of some distinction.

rep Track RANK ARNOl.D'S A and B Prep cinder stars were able this year to defeat Fillmore and San- ta Paula in dual meets. They lost one to Oxnard. ln a league meet the high-schoolers fin- ished behind the Yellow Jackets and the Cardinals and ahead of the Flashes and the Desert Rats. ln the A division, Jack Orton, Don Phillips, Tom Donnelly and Bob Cowger were outstanding. Orton won the county pole vault and Phillips the county football throw. Donnelly, an eleven, looked well in the dashes. l-le showed penty of potential ability. To Cowger, miler, goes credit for being the most improved ath- lete of the season. There were two prominent B's, namely Edward Austin and Don Bartlett. Austin was a leading sprinter. l-lad he not suffered a sudden attack of influenza during the league meet, it's outcome might have been different. Two of the most versatile performers of either division were Steele and Bartlett. The former won the inter-campus meet of the A's, while the latter accomplished the same feat in the B divi- sion. To Mr. Arnold go congratulations for the efficient operation of the meets. The? smooth running will go far in popularizing the sport, Schedule of dual meets: A's B's Ventura d.

' inor Sports VARSITY TENNIS ml UNDER MENTOR Paul Wil- son the varsity netters enioy- ed a modicum of success, They had an easy time defeating Compton, Taft, Long Beach, Santa Ma- ria and Lancaster, barely nosed out Santa Monica I2 to ll, and were beaten by Glendale, Los An- geles and Pasadena. PREP TENNIS AS l-If-XS BEEN their habit, the high school racqueteers en- joyed a successful season. They lost only one match by the slim margin of ll to I4 to Oxnard whom they had previously beaten l3 to l2. Tutored by Coach Paul Wilson, the Prep netters had a comparatively easy time in defeating their other county rivals from Fillmore, Santa Paula and the Junior l-ligh. Tom Meyers was runner-up for the county singles championship behind Wil- son of the Junior l-ligh. GOLF OLP, THOUGH not new in the school's competitive ath- letics, was given added impetus with the addition of a driving range and the furnishing of free equipment. Coached by Mr. Paul G. Kepner, dra- matics instructor, the golf team engaged in con- ference competition but was unable to win a match because of insufficient members. ARCHERY ARCHERY was the year's new activity added to the school's athletic catalogue. It was introduced at the in- stance of Joe Buckmaster. Not being an interscholastic sport, there are naturally no outside touranments. l-lowever, a club, sponsored by Buckmaster with Ed Buckner as president was formed. This club was created for the promotion of archery and greater compe- tition among its school adherents. lt is hoped that development of this event in other institu- tions will bring about conference tournaments. page sixty-fi
