V , Cin! 9 ,' OD F U Jn' :lx Basketball X The basketball team was captained by Newman Ertell, guard. His squad 1 was composed of Townsend, Xyeldon, Traver, and Nliller, veterans, and Robbins, Aloore, Gunn, Bokelman, Linck and Krave, new men. ln mid season Bill Betzner a star performer left school, materially weakening the team. The season started off well, with the defeat of Assumption and Northwestern. , Then came a peculiar run of 10 defeats, most of these defeats by three points, none more than six. The team recovered from the slump at the end of the season, won three straight games, and gave St. lNlary's great, undefeated outfit a thrilling battle before succumbing by two points in the last game of the season. On the annual trip, the City College team provoked universal respect in the hostile press through lndiana, Qhio and Kentucky. Captain Ertell played his customary slashing, scrapping defensive game all season long. Besides this, he also placed high in the scoring column. y The twins, Gunn and Aloore, iust up from high school, developed into real performers. and should be stars ot' the lirst water next year. Townsend, Traver, and Xveldon played in and out ball, showing well at times and then dropping into mediocrity. Aliller played great ball when pressed hard, but he had a tendency to let down. Artie is a real star when the going's rough. Robbins, another new letter winner, played fairly consistent ball all season. ln the trip he found the net with regularity and broke into the lineup repeatedly. Krave, Linck, and Bokelman lacked experience but show signs of promise. The letter men from basketball are Captain Ertell, flliller, Gunn, Bloore, Townsend, Vtveldon, Robbins and Traver. Subvarsity letters were awarded to Krave, Linck and Bokelman. Next year Captain Ertell, Traver, Xveldon, Aliller, and Townsend will be absent. if NEUBHE ERTELL Heels is a veteran City athlete. A star both at ftlfltllilll flllll llilslictllall. He was captain of the l9f2-1-25 basketball team and, playing at guard, he developed into a star bath on ' offense and defense. Neumie is famous for his tight- lt ing spirit-he never says die. l xi- .4 'L L. f ' .J .im e r -in ll9

Co! Vid I b L K f O ,Ci l 1 .T 3 .1 'll 'e Track City College had, this year, the best track team in its history. The team was made up of stars as the point column will show. g Bill Seitz, who is capable of 12 feet, contributes great strength to the pole vault and was ably assisted by Rattray. Seitz usually wins his event by an easy margin. Doherty, Gentile, and Blomfield, have shown great form in the high iumps. Doherty has iumped six feet one, and Gentile and Blomfield are constantly improving. Zuber and Doherty are the weight men. The loss of Vincent, veteran weight man, has been a severe loss. If he becomes eligible, the ixlunics will be there in the strong arm events. Zuber is state intercollegiate title holder in the discus throw, which speaks for itself. Edward Spence, former state interscholastic hurdles champion, has displayed excellent form in his events under Holmes' coaching. He took two firsts at Ypsi. winning against Peel, their Captain. Yvagner also has shown good form in the low hurdles. Captain Pat Blanchard is a tower of strength in -1-IO, while Brown, Lampman, and the two Yvarriners have shown splendid form in the other middle distances. Gordon Hill, veteran, and Kid Lange, have well taken care of the mile and two mile, with the able assistance of Beier, and Griffiths. The only weak spot on the team is the dashes. Litzenberger, former star sprinter, is unable to compete because of an ankle iniury received in football. Heston and Xvagner are developing fast and either or both should come through soon. The high spots of the indoor season were the good showing made at the Illinois relays, the capturing unofficially of the Nl. A. C. relays and the close losses to Ohio XVesleyan and Ypsi Normafs star teams. At Urbana, against the best in the conference and the ixliddle Xvest, Seitz tied for second in the pole vault. Doherty tied for fourth in the high iump. I The mile relay team, composed of Pauschert. Lampman, Brown, and Blanchard, placed fourth although they broke the old record by more than a l second. C at Hill placed seventh in the 1000-yard event against strong and numerous competition. At they Bl. A. C. relay carnival, the mile relay team again won and set a new record. The two mile relay team also won. This team was made up of Beier. ' Griffiths, Lange, and Hill. Seitz and Doherty won n their events. All in all the Alunics scored 2912 points X ' and won the meet. 5' l Q' ll U' PAT BLANCHARD Captain of the track team, Pat has made a name for himself among the minor colleges. An exceptional 4-10 man. Pat also runs anchor on the relay team which placed high at the Big Ten meet at Urbana and broke f a record at Fl. A. C. relay carnival. Q-4 r 121 V J. .1-
