Frank LaComb was recently unanimously chosen captain of the '30 Beetdigger baseball team. "Burla" is a Junior. He made his letter last year, and he is one of the headiest catchers in the league. He has had more experience and has played baseball as much as any other member of the squad, if not more. "Burla" has great ability as a leader, and with him as captain the team should come out first. FORIUER EDITOR OF JOURNAL IS HERE ON A VISIT Paul S.
