..,:........ pam Nl E F BASEBALL HISTORY Lizsran SPILKER--JZ't1'lll2lI'y, 1926 5 oft take them ofi' to the baseball gf' , teams that braced Y eatman athletics so that they would not fall into ruin. Give due credit to our baseball teams that have so faithfully worked. From the be- ginning Y eatman has been well represented in baseball, so well represented that at no time did any individual find it necessary to be ashamed of his team. VVe have been champions three times and other times we have finished close to the top. At no time was the name Yeatman at the bottom of a final baseball standing. Is this not some- thing to praise? Though the school may die, we as true Yeatmanites should make our Baseball History live. EATMANITES! Take your hats In 1905 Yeatman put forth its best efforts for the purpose of getting a real baseball team. As this was the Hrst attempt for the new school, Yeatman, many difficult prob- lems lay before them. A coach, Peter Pease, was obtained. The hardest problem to solve was a place of practice. After much con- sideration, a field at Florissant and Queens Avenues was obtained. The Coach put forth his best efforts as did the team and, through hard work, they won most of their games, but they did not win the pennant. The In- terscholastic games at this time were played at Kulage's Park on Newstead Avenue. The following year Coach Pease was not at Y eatman, so Mr. Frank Crippen, a teacher now at Central, took up the task. He worked very hard with the team for several years, and he succeeded in 1912 in winning a championship. Yeatman also played for the state championship at Colum- bia, Mo., but lost to a team from Kansas City. lVhen Coach Crippen left us, after several years of faithful service, Mr. Har- vey McCloskey became coach. His untiring efforts were greatly appreciated, though they clidn't win the championship. In 1916 our present coach, Mr. Hill, took over the role. In his nine years of coaching he has piloted teams to the top twice, a fact which shows that he won for us our share of pennants. In 1918 a team captained by Leo Shanley was victorious. In 1923 a team whose captain was Mal Stremmel won the pennant. VV e should, therefore, take off our hats to these coaches for the success that they have made of Yeatman baseball and we should especially credit Coach Crip- pen and Coach Hill for piloting teams to the top. Through these many years of baseball, these various coaches have seen results of their efforts not only in the High School League. but in all other branches of base- ball. They have seen that their knowledge of the game was taught to their players and that they were able to advance far beyond the uncoached lad. Especially in college, Yeatman fellows have become baseball stars. I will try to bring back to you some of Yeat- man's stellar players in this brief account. The first catcher, Armond Droste, will be remembered by those who saw him play, for his untiring efforts and his fighting spirit. Much credit is due him for the success of the first team. One of the early captains was Harry Pfeiffer, who played outfield in the big leagues for some time. Herbert Leo pitched for Yeatman. Later he went to Illinois University, where he pitched for that team. He was one of the two that won letters in five different branches of athletics. Kamp was the other. Wfalter Pierce was a catcher who played when the well-known Muddy Ruel caught for Soldan. It may be well to note that we beat them. Pierce, after service in the war, pitched for Washington University and he was also captain there. Two brothers who became popular be- One Hundred Seventeen
