Y. HIGH A Trip To The Big City Here is a bird's eye view of the tourney as yours truly saw it Any resemblance to persons, places, or purely coincidental. First of all we have the students who missed school Wednesday to go to Salt Lake to get their hotel rooms From what I've heard these students really had a nice time. While still on the subject of these students, I feel sorry for them. Most of them were broke when time came for them to go home, they had to crawl through the bus windows so that they could come home Now we turn another page of our files to find the students who drove up in private- cars. The first stop was probably at the new "Sears" store. One motive was in mind, that was to ride the escalators, and ride they did. Up and down, down and up. Boy was it fun' Fun at least till a few tried to walk up the stairs that were going down. Besides all this, the furniture and household facilities had to be tried out by those future home owners. Guess who ? Having left Sears, the students explored a few more points of interest. This usually ended at the State Capitol grounds where they ate and watched squirrels play among the rocks. Now to find what the students on the bus were doing. Shortly after the bus left Provo the students came out with that cute song "I'm a Little Wild Flower." Something must be wrong with the junior high kids, either the boys have been courting New York corkers or else the girls have suddenly-becomcorkers because about all they could sing was: incidents is - e My gals a corker, She's a New Yorker; I buy her everything To keep her in style. Bob Smith and Reed Miller were kept busy playing their "tonettes." As each town came up Reed led the students in a great cheer for the Y. Nice going boys; you'll make swell cheer leaders. The trip home was a nice one. Still a little cheering, all sorts of records being broken, but at the end of the ride nearly everyone was This winds up the tournament happenings, and if this paper never gets to press, its because the "poor" newspaper staff wore their legs off trying to get stories and pictures for the durn thing. i For the first time in several years, High will be represented in the Invitational Field and Track Meet The girls aren't to be outdone bv the boys this year Much enthusiasm has been sent out toward the meet from as far down as the seventh grade Girls from the seventh to twelfth grades inclusive will participate in the meet this year.

B i "THE CHAMPS JW BASEBALL i.- in tXTMT'M Y' B. Y. U. High To Have Track Team For the first time in a good many years, the B. Y. U. high school will have an organized Track team, according to Owen Dixon, Wild Cat Coach Coach Dixon reports that, as yet, it is impossible to determine the exact strength of this year's team This can be explained by the fact that this is one of the rare sports seasons in the history of "Y" high tht no lettermen have returned to form the nucleus of a new team. However interest in track and field events is running high, and numerous candidates have reported to build the hopes of the in Wildcat schools student-bodtheir tracksters. This years track team will be built around Don McIntosh and Jim Dunford in the sprints; Craig and Dee Chamberlain, Jack WTing, and Melvin Davidson in the distances, Fred Johnson, Kent Kirby, and Oaks in middle distances; Glen Grosjean on the high jump, Condon Avery on the hurdles, and Jae Ballif, y TEAM 49 OF Selects Baseball Team B, Y. Tennis Teams The Wildcats from B.Y U High have been practicing under the critical eye of coach Rex Olson for the last two weeks preparing for the coming baseball season. Coach Olson has good material with nine returning from last year's squad. The pitching staff is probably stronger than it has been within the last two or three years with Harold Christensen who seems to be the strongest pitcher and with Boyd Dowdell, Morris Jackman and Max Eggertsen supporting him. The infield remains to be tested, since some of the positions are being held down by newcomers to the squad. The infield consists of Jae Ballif and Val Stringfellow, C; Morris Jackman and Dave Young, lb; Tom Karren and Eddie Maloney, 2b; Norm Christiansen, ss; Max Eggertsen and Kent Lloyd, 3b. The outfield is fairly strong with three lettermen back. The fielders are as follows- ElRoy Nelson and Stan Collins, left, Paul Salisbury, Cliff Corless, and Albert Christensen, center, Frank Eccles and Frank Can-fiel- d in Are Organized The tennis team has been practicand off since the snow mel- ted The team consists of Harold Christensen, Paul Salisbury, letter- men from last year, and Max Eggert- sen, Stan Collins, Ralph Rigby, Larry Innes, Fred Dixon, Jack Nixon, Boyd The Dowdell, and Don McIntosh. team will participate in the B.

The always "Alert" young men were dressed in the smartest Spring apparel and even an expert could tell how color conscious these active sportsmen were Ted Neilson came prancing by My did he flash in his lavendar blouse tucked neatly into his cream colored shorts There were tiny flecks of green spots on both, which truly accentuated the blue of his eyes. Jae Ballif who is always color conscious was very stylish, and looked outstanding in his perfectly matched sky blue jacket and kellv green trunks In true harmony with his stunning outfit. Jae had chosen a beautiful key chain to dangle in dainty knots around his suntanned neck. Don McIntosh gaily fluttered by. carefully guarding his new white shoes with the gleaming cleats, reDon looked flecting on the grass his usual calm, collected self in his red knickerbockers and maroon T shirt Carefully lntwined around his delicate wrist was a piece of green string to remind him to pick up a loaf of bread on his way home. Craig and Dee Chamberlain arrived in twin outfits carefully their "Toni's" had been combed and they walked hand in hand across the green. Jim Dunford, Dick White, Jack, Wing, and Dallin Oaks arrived early in order to be immaculate in their pink and purple swimming suits All seemed to be dressed alike, as they had been on a sale at our own dear "Smart Shop" in Provo Melvin Davidson, Kent Kirby, and Con Avery were the last ones out of the field house, they too had tried to dress alike in a way: they all wore shoes, shorts and shirts, the colors were many and varied. B.Y. High had now- established itself as being color conscious and extra stylish Let's not try too hard to keep up this shining example After a most victorious season an honor assembly and presenting of laurels left and right, the excitement seems to haw died down i bit. However, before it disappears entirely we should accomplish a little job which should have been done weeks ago What is it? Why, the presenting of a verbal bouquet to our cheerleaders, of course. There have been various comments throughout the halls as to the pep, vivacity and spirit of these three, but as of now, it is up to the to present our sincere congratulations for the fine work and support they gave our team on the darkest of it's bright days.
