Cross Country 1932 Season Cross-country is still considered a minor sport in most high schools, but due to the ever increasing popularity of the sport and the increasing enrollment, it may soon rise to as high a standard in America as it now is in Europe. Although it is rather strenuous, it is a very fine sport for developing the heart and lungs and getting the boys in good condition for spring track. Although the cross-country team had only two letter men this season, it proved to be a strong contender for the suburban championship. There were about thirty-tive boys out for cross-country and of these Bob Adams. Randolph Kern. Earl Miller, Gerald Martin, Sherwin Mielke, Louis Nloneyelle, Tom Price, John Raht, Bruce Stollberg, Dave Wolfe, and Paul XValker ran in the Suburban meet. The first meet of the season was with Wauwatosa, whom we easily defeated. West Allis defeated us in our next dual meet and proved itself to be a strong con- tender for the suburban title. The suburban meet held in South Milwaukee on a two and one-half mile course composed most- ly of hills, and incidently the most difficult A group Of ffprfsvnwrivc Waukesha arhleres. course in this region. West Allis placed first and Shorewood barely defeated us for second place. The team should be able to capture the suburban title in 1933 quite easily. Although ive of the boys will have been graduated there is still a very fine squad left around which Mr. Lomas can build the next team. . .. Page One Hundred Four

Track The track season of l932 was fairly successful, although most of the boys were having their first track experience during that season. Al Kranzush, lsadore Cohn, Larry Knoebel and Fred Neumann succeeded in earning letters. Although Al Kranzush, one of the outstanding half milers in this state, has been graduated, there are still three letter-men remaining around whom this year's track team will be built. Some of the best prospects for this season are Spencer Klatt, Roger DeLong, and Angus MacDougall in the dashes, Bob Murray, Don Willison, and John Lewis in the hurdles. Dave Wolfe. Sherwin Mielke, and the Walker brothers in the distances, Jerry Schiffman in the high-jump, and Bill Smith in the shot-put. Although there seems to be little chance to capture the suburban title, the season has all indications of turning out very well considering the material. The track schedule is as follows: April 22, Marquette: April 27, with the Alumni: May 6, with Wauwatosa and West Allis: May l3, with South Mil- waukee and West Milwaukee: May 20, with Cudahy and Wauwatosa, and June 3, the Suburban meet. Waukesha, for the first time in three years, defeated Marquette. lt was an overwhelming defeat and thoroughly avenged the defeats of the preceeding years. Waukesha placed first in most of the events, besides gaining an overwhelming amount of seconds and thirds. The new material did much better under the stress of competition than was expected. The alumni defeated the school team in the second meet, which was more of a practice meet since only the best of the alumni competed. The Year Book goes to press too soon to print the results of the other four contests, although we are all hoping for the best. Most of the team this year consists of sophomores and juniors, who after their initial experience should show a great amount of improvement by next year. The weight events, namely shot put and discus, will be the only weak spots be- cause most of the boys in these events are seniors, although some of the material may develop unexpected skill and brawn by the next season. This pic- ture shows the start of the llO-yard high hurdle event. Bob Murray, third from the lcft. gained an early lead and maintained it as th ' e rate pro- gressed. Don XVillison, second from the right. and John Lewis, on the extreme left, also did quite well. Page One Hundred Three

These eight teams play games among themselves and then the winning team of the first league plays the winning team of the second league. After the final games of each sport the girls have a party.
