ATHLETICS Football The football season opened September tenth with twenty-five candidates out and nearly all the 1923 regulars back. Frank Spears, 26 was chosen captain. We had a strong schedule playing with Janesville, Lake Geneva, Waukesha, LaCrosse, Milton College and the Alumni. We won five gumes, tied one and lost two. It would be hard to name the stairs as the team was a well balanced one. Basketball Our basketball team was made up of veterans and made a good record, defeating strong High School and Amateur teams in Wisconsin and Illinois. Frank Spears was elected captain. We went to Indianapolis to compete with the teams from the Ohio, Illinois and Indiana Schools for the Deaf in the basketball tournament there. We defeated Ohio in the first game 28 to 17 and Illinois triumphed over Indiana 22 to 17. The next night we lost to the Illinois team in hard game 22 to 20 so Illinois won the silver trophy. Wo hope W. S. D. will win the trophy next year. Baseball We had the same tenm as last year nut we foiled to get games with nearby schools, however we had a game with the Milwaukee Silent Club team on Maj 23, and easily defeated them 24 to 3. John Bradaus had 12 strike outs to his credit. Arthur Szablewski and Harry Wille made home runs. Tennis The boys have begun to play tennis this year, the first time in the school’s history. A tennis court has been laid out between the boys dormitory and the gymnasium. Harold Larsen, Richard Davies and Stephen Somogji have charge of it. The court is still rather rough but we hope to have it improved. Our athletic teams traveled a total of 1600 miles this year and got to be well known throughout the state.
