Rosen and McCarthy tied for third place in the high jump. Rosen won third place in the shot put. Maciag won the 220 yd. low hurdles. McNa- mara, his running mate, came in second.

The gaps left on third base. short stop, center and right fields have been filled with some promising young players who are showing improvement every day. The West Rutland High School team opened its season on April 28th with a game against Fair Haven. The clever work of last yeai-'s bat- tery, Ambrose and Leonard, together with the support of Olll' infield and outfield, resulted in a victory over the Slate City team. The gaine ended in a scoi of 6 to 2. On May 5th, we defeated Pittsford High, 8 to 3. On May 12th Proctor High defeated West Rutland in a hard fought, eleven-inning game. Our defeat was due to lack of hitting power. On May 19th, we defeated Middlebury by a score of 9 to 6. So far we have been credited with three victories and one defeat. The remaining games are as follows: May 26 W. R. H. S. vs. Vergennes June 2 W. R. H. S. vs. Brandon June 9 W. R. H. S. vs. Black River Academy
