However, in the games that our team lost, we were defeated by only small margins. We were eliminated in the first game of the Christmas tournament when Rite- nour defeated us, 20-17. We were put in the B division of the distrirt tournament this year and in our first round we trouneed Riverview Gardens 27- --5, hut in the second round, we were beaten by Clayton, a team we had expected to heat, by the exciting score of 17-416. The fine careers of Captain Al Murray, Lorimer Werreineyer, and Bud Reynolds will end at Wellstoii by graduation. Their loss will he felt extremely. Coach Nibeckis B team aggregation had a fair season hy winning three and tying one out of seven starts.

Wellstonis football season was a little better this year than last year. Although winning only two games and losing four, the players showed their stuff in all of the games. Our team tied with the Webster boys 0-v0, by outplaying a team that out-weighed them. The annual Thanksgiving game that was played at Normandy this year was disastrous for Wlellston. Playing on a muddy field against a team much heavier than ours and having our offense upset by a sudden change of weather, resulted in Wellstorfs defeat, 29-0. Next year when football rolls around, Wellston expects to turn out a much better team than it has had for the past few years. YVe lose by graduation Reynolds, Murray, Moore, Leigh, and Braun of the first team, and Eichwald and L. Dunard of the second team. On the All-County Team we placed Harry Mason, our full-hack. Harry played a good game all season, doing more than his share in the games. The squad consists of the following: line-Murray, Gaskill, Hartman, Collett, L. Dunard, Conway, Moore, Reynolds, Houston, Braun, P. Dunard, Catti, Sanders, Leigh, and Hogan, backheld-Mason, lten, Ostendorf, Werremeyer, Gossom, Eich- wald, Kauz, Graddy, and Mitchell.

-l KD E C xn D C T flh I 'T'l -l FD FIN I - C? The Baseball Team Standing: Mitchell. Kauz, Boderl. Smith. Barbour, Gossom. Ostcnmlorf, Parlett, Hogan. Seated: Eichwald. Werrcmeyer. Leigh Murray. Reynolds. Von Behren. Braun. Wellston opened their baseball season this year with great expectations by defeating Central of the City League, 9-6. We continued our streak by defeating Clayton, 10-1, Bonnie Von Behren pitching a wonderful game. We next defeated Webster, 6-1, avenging the defeat of last year, Bonnie allowing only three hits. We next journeyed to Ritenour and defeated them, 5-3. After winning three league games in a row and one non-league game we went to defeat at the hands of U. City, 4f-3, in a very exciting game, losing only in the last half of the seventh inning. After we lost to U. City we seemed to lose hope and played into Maplewood's hands with the result that we were beaten 9-6. Our next game was with Kirkwood at our field which proved to be a good game although we were beaten 8-3. Ostendorf hit a home run, but was called out when he failed to touch first base. Our last game of the season is with Normandy, our ancient rival, and as this book goes to press before the game we do not have the score but the game is expected to be a tight one. We had also defeated Eureka, of the non-football group, 5-4. P g Tl y
