second half saw the GRA wearing

the Lettermen's Club were: Dave
Lohman, Don Mann. Rick Clark,
John Buck, Craig Hooper, Danny

High scorer for the club was
M:ke Dawkins, with eight points.
Don Scholer netted four points,
while Dave Dunson, John Buck,

The women faculty were
quite crafty as they had their
own rules. Mrs. Peggy Zwick
presented the rules to referees,
Mr. George Keil and Mr. Hiram
Crane just before the game
started. Playing for the faculty
were Mrs. Lucy Susee, Mrs. Mar

Fowler, Mrs. Ruth Trost, Mrs.
Estcl Sohler, Mrs. Hattie Con

Mrs. Susee made an eye-catching
move as she galloped down
the floor, holding the ball under
her arms, and netted two points.
Miss Shirley Laney aLso scored
two points while Miss Kitchen
dunked a foul shot for one point.
The game had a slight delay
while MLss Kitchen crawled on
the floor looking for her contact
lenses. They had other short de
lays when Mrs. Sohler, better
known as "Sohler Energy," sup
plied the faculty with short cof

According to coach George
Keil, the seniors wanted to beat
the Cavemen for the fir.st time
since junior high and this was
their last chance.
The score, which ended 55-50
for AHS, was 9-3 early in the
first period and it looked like
another good night for Grants
Pass. But the Bruins came on
strong and managed to hold on
to a 13-all tie at the end of the
quarter.
Grizzlies Pull Ahead
Opening the second stanza,
Grants Pass went ahead briefly
17-13, but the Bears tied it 17-17
and went ahead 28-23 to end the
half.
The Bears lengthened their
lead to 10 points before the Cave
men narrowed it by five as the
game ended.
For once, the foul line proved
to be Ashland's strong point, as
both teams made 20 field goals.
The Grizzlies scored on 15 of 27
occasions at the free throw line

To Be A
Champion
by Paul Dietzel
How can I be a champion ath
lete? I'm too skinny (or too fat)
or too slow (or too sluggish) or
too small (or too short)! I'm just
not built right for a champion!
Everyone can't be a champion!
Or can he? What is a champion,
anyway? Must I be the fastest
human in the 100-yard dash to be
a champion? If that's the case,
there is actually only one cham
pion of the 100-yard dash in the
whole universe! But this defini
tion of a champion is not the
one I'm speaking of. I speak
of leing a champion of yourself.
This Ls much more important. It
is within the realm of possibility
of each and every athlete. If this
is the case then it would be rather
illy for any athlete to settle for
le.ss than being a "champion"!
To begin with if you have the
inclination to take part in ath
letics, you must realize that there
will be some work involved in
your participation. The glamour
of the actual contest seems to
wear thin in the day-by-day grind
of practices when you must par
ticipate without the "pep squad,"
band, and cheer leaders! As a
matter of fact, it boils down to
jast out and out work! It is time
consuming, sweat-producing, and
bruise-raising just to have an
opportunity to be "on the team."
To do this amount of participa
tion and merely "go through the
motions" is really dull because
you are just waiting for practice
to end. You have no real aim or
objective. Why not decide in ad
vance that you, personally, are
going to give your team the very
best that is in you "What I
gave I still have, but what I kept
is lost forever!" Be the very best
athlete that you are capable of
being! Have you really reached
the complete "zenith" of your
capabilities? Try harder than you
are really capable of doing do
your level best and you will
be a true champion. This is the
championship that is within your
grasp.

Baseball, Track
Prospects Good
With some of the best coaches
in Southern Oregon, AHS expects
to sec many victories from the
track and baseball teams this

coaches here at AHS should prove
to be triumphant over any com
petition in Southern Oregon.
Coaching track will be Mr.
Hiram Crane, Mr. George Keil,
and Mr. John Buck. With ten
runners showing up for pre
season workouts, Mr. Crane feels
the team will do fairly well with
the exception of sprints. The
official track season will begin
March 15, and an estimated 40 50
students are expected to try out
for the team.
Mr. John Barlow and Mr. Wil
liam Leybold will instruct the
AUS baseball team this year.
With the season officially begin
ning March 15, Mr. Leybold, who
will coach the varsity team with

as their only weak spot. About
35-40 students are expected to
try out for the team.
