Brook Park School Notes
Sports.

Inc boys CnOSe TWO teams Tor phys
ical education. These teams are to
last for kittenball and whatever else
we play in physical education period.
The two hurlers are the captains.
Raymond Kolesar is captain of "The
Giants" and Lester Korsch of 1.-The
Midgets."
Raymond, the Joe Hauser of Brook
Park, started the season off with a
home run, but the expert playing on
the part of the "Midgets" saved the
day and they won the game. The
score was to 8. This game had the
record of no hits, no runs, and no err
rors (maybe so and maybe no).
The girls are divided into a kitten
ball team and an outdoor basketball
team.
