E' Yvnrren High School C H 0 E S Nineteen Twenty-liyi l, Boy's Class Basketball Champs 11.'1A By playing a hard, steady game all through the season. the 11 A basketball team won the lnter-Class basketball championship of the high school. The champs lost but two games all through the schedule, those coming at the hands of the faculty and the 12 A's. The 11 A's got sweet revenge in one fray by winning the final game from the runners up, but didn't have a chance to beat the faculty as the two teams didn't meet again. Right from the beginning the 11 A's figured that all that stood between them and the championship was the 12 A team, made up mostly of former varsity basketball players. So the team buckeled down to the task and beat their rivals in the first and third games, losing the second by a good score. All through the season, it was the team work and the good will of the team plus the management of Micky McKee that gave the 11 A's the championship. The fact that the champs went through the season beating the cream of each class and alsojourneying to McDonald Hi to beat that team is all the more reason why the 11 A class should be proud of their champs. The linal game will long be remembered in the minds of the players because the championship was at stake and each player did his best. As a re- ward, the class bought the champs gold basketballs inscribed with the words Inter- Class Champs, '25. The runners up received silver basketballs. The team which brought the championship to the 11 A class was made up of five players and a manager- coach. The personel ofthe team included Joe Sabo, f., William Oliver, f., Alfred Dilford, c.g Charles Middlestead, G.g and Earl F. Williams G. and Captain. The one behind the team in all the games was Harold Mickey McKee. I Page Eighty I

Yfnrrcn High School C Hail 0 E S Nincfccn Twcnfy-fivc BASEBALL SQUAD Warren Chalks Up Excellent Baseball Report The Red and White baseball team proved to be one of the smoothest playing ag- gregations to represent VVarren for a number of seasons. Made up of a bunch of hard hitters and errorless fielders the team has only one defeat to mar their record exclusive of the Lakewood games. The lone defeat was at the hand of Girard who earlier in the season was trounced by the Red and VVhite by the score of 4-0. Notwithstanding the defeat by such a large score the team and coach Sid Jones are deserving of much praise. The fighting spirit which characterizes Red and White encounters never waned in the course of the baseball season. Many of the teams defeated represented much larger schools than VVarren, such as University and Cleveland Heights. Leon Red Ames the slab artist who adorned the mound in the major encounters was the hurler who was responsible for a great deal of the team's success. Possessed with the tricks of fine hurling and a speedy ball he has mastered all the intricacies of the game. His dad, former Giant pitcher, has aided Red until the son is rapidly rounding into a form that will soon equal that of his dad's. Louis Polena, center Helder leads the willow swingers. He is a powerful yet brainy hitter whose good bat work has pulled a number of games out of the pit. The other members of the team all played ball that proved disastrous to some hard opponents.
