there, barefoot and in his
pajamas. eating a piece Of
salami. I yelled. "ORVILLE!"
He dropped the salami and
acted like he just came out
Of a trance. He claims he
doesn't know how he got
there and must have been
walking in his sleep. Do you
think he's telling me the
truth?

under way again this week
after almost a two week lay
off, which in scholastic
circles is almost like start
ing all over again.
Coach Ray Fox of Wheaton is
the only coach who had any
real enthusiasm over the break.

pitcher, Gerald Athey, will have
had time to recover from a bad
ly twisted knee over the break.
Coach Hank Miles of Richard
Montgomery meanwhile used
the holiday time to rest his own
knee. Hank tore ligaments in
his leg two weeks ago and
couldn't even get to practice the
week before Easter.
Walter Johnson stood to suf-
fel most from the break as the
Spartans were hitting the ball
we'll in running up five consecu-
tive wins before the holidays.
The Spartans pounded out II
hits to win their B'-County
opening game just before the
vacation and WI Coach George
Thompson will be hoping his
batters have lost none of their
edge by inactivity.
The Sparants journeyed to
High Point Tuesday and enter.
