Jfaaeball Rain, rain go away was the ery of the baseball team this year. If a practice wasn't cancelled, a game was. Soon the games piled up so that they were playing almost every day of the week. Despite the rain however they trounced Midland 10 to l and South Side 20 to 3 after being badly beaten the game before. The remainder of the season was a series of heart breaks and mislortuneg hits in the right place were hard to get and they fell one run shy in four games. Individually the boys showed great promise, but Mr. Shingler was at wit's end to Hnd the winning combina- tion. The game which most exemplifies his anxiety was the battle at Kiski which we finally won ll to 10. An- other year, another season and we'll be in there with a ball team that will slam that agate around better than before.

BUCKY SHOXVS that height isn't always important. un ior .High fiadleeibau Led by freshmen, Clarence Andrews with 229 points and Pat Lacey with 204 points, the junior high basketball team engineered a winning season of 9 victories against 6 defeats. The season started rather slow after a decisive victory over Riverside but soon the boys became a team and mowed the rest of the opponents down except for a few perennial giants. Our victims included Hopewell, Center, Baden-Economy, Northwestern, New Brighton, and Southside. Beaver barely escaped, winning by only one point in the closest game of the season. Although Mr. Allison is losing quite a few good players to the senior high, he has a big aggregation coming back next year to begin a new combination. Much luck to our junior hoopsters on bettering their magnihcent season next year. LEE one-hands a rebound in warm-up before a game. Front: R. Speerhas, XV. Robbins, Petchel, C. Kelker.

The disheartening fact is that only two of these, Dick Dobronz and Paul Pro- donovich, will return next year to bolster the team. The loss of Tom Berovich will be felt both in the pitching department and at third base. john Camaioni's superb hitting and fielding in the infield will be sorely missed. Trying to find as good a catcher as Terry Dawson will be a difficult task and Tom Troup's left-handed swing will need a good replacement. OUR NORMAL PRACTICE was held at the Fairview Grange field, but after rainstorms we had to clean out the outfield at the school -, NW- M.
