VOL. V, NO. 12
APRIL 17, 1964
MAINE'S LITTLE WARRIORS have a 2-1 record so for this year. The soph team started its year off by defeating Evanston 2-1. Pete Kulik collected 3 hits, and Bob Mein was the winning pitcher. Maine West dropped a tough one to Morton West 4-3. Bill Gastorf was the losing pitcher. The third game the little warriors played, they over-ran Niles West 10-5. Sherman Schuett was the winning pitcher.
MAINE WEST'S FROSH BASEBALL team has started the year off in the red by losing its first two games. Maine's Al Fritz and Randy O'Hare lost a heart breaker to Waukegan 5-4. O'Hare was charged with the loss. Later that week the frosh were battered with a 12-3 loss to Niles West.
FOR THE FIRST TIME in the history of the school, Maine West will play its football games at home. This was decided by the school board when they appropriated $45,000 to outfit the Warrior gridiron with new bleachers.
With three teams in the district, the school board was faced with a problem, "How could three teams, in three different conferences, play on one field?" It was decided at the March meeting of the board that the bleachers were the cheapest and easiest way to alleviate the situation. The field will not have lights.
AT THE BOWLING CLUB'S annual banquet Wednesday after school, the season tournament high scorers were given awards. A score of 613 won Bill Wagner a trophy, as did 609 for Gary Arndt, and 593 for Greg Small. Free games went to Glen Wickboldt with a score of 577; Dick Wills, 572; and Louis Hacker, 562. Team high for the first‑round session of the season was copped by Schmidt's Four whose members were Dan Schmidt, John Arkoos, Jim Jones, and Larry Charrette. The team finished with a score of 2,338 and won five games out of six for the best team record. The Beds, composed of Richard Merk, Kenneth Kuznicki, Ronald Kolacek, and Dillard Baker, compiled a score of 846 for team high, single game.
THE FRESHMEN TRACK team was held to eight points in the Northshore Freshmen Invitational held at Evanston on Saturday, March 21st. The meet was won by Evanston.
Point‑getters for the thinclads were Jim Benedict, who captured second place in the half mile; Doug Chase, who placed fourth in the mile run; and the 4‑lap relay team of Jim Hren, Don Lossman. Ken Mandalke, and Dave Wintergerst, which also placed fourth.
