BUCK AS A STAR-

Tempe high readily realized the loss of one of it's best athletes when Leo Buck, since early youth a local boy, moved to California this summer, but few ever looked upon him as football player. and especially a star among all of his class But just in these cir cumstances is he found as attending Pomona high today. In the several games that institution has played this season Buck has repeatedly been one of the star performers, long runs be- ing his speciality In the last game he played Buck showed indications of be- coming a great player should he inn prove, as there is reason to expect that he will. His old team mates al Tempe high are more than glad to look upon his attachments in the new field but still long for his presence back in their ranks as forward on the basketball team, an all around track man and captain and first baseball man of the baseball squad.
