Walter Johnson is the only two
time winner. The WI thinclads
won the first and second events;
Suitland won the third year; B.
&C took the fourth staging and
Blair took the fifth meet to
bring the record up to date.
Saturdays presentation will
find each school limited to two
entries per event with individ-
ual events being scored 12-8-6-4-2
and relays getting the same
scoring count.
While Blair is credited with
being in a good position to de
fend its championship, North
wood is being hailed as the team
to watch.
The Indians are. strong in
depth and are itching to lay
claim to their own meet. In the
five years its been running,
Northwood has finished second
four times. Only last year did
the Indians finish out of the
money-fourth.
However, in a meet of such
high caliber as the Northwood
affair-the desire of the boys
make each team a top candidate
for the title.

And much of the credit goes
to a lad by the name of Jerry
May.
The hustling third baseman
has moved right into the start
ing lineup. His all-around
ability has allowed Sisson to
transplant Mike Simmons to
second where he can do a better
job.
The 5-foot-9, 150-pound third
sacker, who plays quarterback
in football, has all the potential
"a strong bat and flashy glove
along with the right moves.
Currently batting over the
500 mark, May is the bingle-
type batter. Most of his hits,
reports the mentor, are of the
single variety. He has one
double. Attesting to his keen
eye is the 2-for-3 afternoon
against powerful Blair.
Meanwhile, with Simmons
back at second, sophom o r 6
Richie Farmer is looking much
better at short. Reporting for
his first year of varsity action,
Farmer boasts a strong arm
and abundant speed.
Coach Sisson sees the lad
needing a little more experience
before becoming one of the cir
cults better shortstops.
And with Simmons alongside,
says the tutor, 1 have a good
stabilizer." A senior, Simmons
has the experience necessary to
keep the infield calm.
With the infield trouble
settled, Sisson fears nothing in
the catching department and
has been given a big boost in
his mound corps.
Supplying the feeling of sat
isfaction are Fred Hauff and
George Cowperthwaite, respec-
lively.
Hauff, burly backstop at
6-foot-3 and 30 pounds, has al
ready caught the eye of sew
eral big league scouts - and
with little wonder.
For in addition owning the

standards Hauff can both

catch and hit. The three-sport
athlete, who appears to be
headed to the University of
West Virginia, is swatting the
ball at a 500 clip-many of the
knocks going for extra bases.
And with his playing ability,
Hauff has four years of catch.
ing experience to keep his bat
terry mates under control.
One of the moundsmen
speaking of control - has just
mastered his fast ball.
For the past two years SEN
ior Cowperthwaite has shown
the potential Of being a top
year he has harnessed his speed
hurler for the Indian nine. This
and is fitting right into a start
ing role.
His most recent mount stint
supports the confidence voiced
by his coach. Cowperthwaite
was called to relieve in the first
inning and the fastballing
southpaw turned in a superb
job.
He allowed the opposition no
hits, walked two men and
famed 10.
In addition to controlling his
overland delivery, Cowperth-
waite has developed a side-ar1n

tice sessions, Mowen did like
performances in the bro a d
jump, shot and discus.
Without the benefit of regu-
lation course, Ed Sewell was
covering 20 feet in the broad
jump, with Danny Yates and
Ohio Thompson showing good
promise.
Russell Burdett, Bob Lawson
and Louis Naylor have been
working well with the weights,
according to the mentor. Nay
lor and Lawson also double in
heaving the discus.
The best shot mark has been
40 feet, but as the weather i'm
proves, Mowen is looking for
his shot putters to improve.
Naylor and Lawson have
whirled the platter to lbs feet
and the tutor is expecting a
100 foot distance by meet time.
While the school is more
noted for its basketball team,
winner of the Class c cham
pionship, the track future is
not too bleak.
Mowen's junior high squad, a
contingent picked from the
smallest Junior high school in
the county, finished sixth last
year among IL schools.
While the interior Of Pooles-
vile High School is work of
perfection, the exterior grounds
still need a lot Of work.
So is the situation with the
track team. Manpower is there
for perfecting-only a track is
needed.

curve, the ball struck his bat
and bounced into fair territory.
Being off balance, Burns
was tossed out at first, but Da-
mascus base runner on third
came home. Thus Burns was
credited with a run-batted-in.
However, the Dick Wilson
coached nine lost the decision
to Glen Fig, 1877, even after
rallying from a 7-to-0 deficit.
The Glen Elg batters tagged
Richard Andrews for seven
runs in two innings, but had to
fight off the fast-finishing
Hornets-out to make a sue
cess of the season-opening con-
test.
Wilson called Leroy Fritz to
halt the visitors uprising in
the fifth-and his results prob
ably tabled him as the teams
No. l relief hurler. Wilson indi-
Gated that Fritz will also get
his share of starting assign
mentS.
Meanwhile, Wilson was
pleased with the showings of
Larry Gladhill, Dickie Souder
and Gary Keatzel.
In addition to playing a fine
defensive game, the trio came
up with some fine bat power.
Gladhill, who works at the
hot corner, had a single and
double with four RIBS. The
sophomore, a product of the
Pony League, went 2-for-3 at
the plate and three put outs at
third.
Douder, a junior first base
man, stroked two singles,
while Keatzel, also a junior,
had two singles and two RIBS.
Keatzel is the Hornet left
fielder.

For Practice

Poolesville Hig h School,
with only so boys in the
school, is really having its
problems readying a squad
for the County B and c
Tract Meet to be held at Cal
thersburg May II.
In addition to lacking a field
coach Bob Mowen has had to
battle old Mother Nature in
building a squad for the big
event.
And adding to the confusion,
Mowen must hope that a base
ball game doesn't call away q
possible track candidate.
According to county rules
schools with only a certain
number of male students can
allow an athlete to participate
in two sports providing he
enters only two sports activi
ties per school week.
This means boy can play in
a baseball game and enter a
track meet or play in two base
ball games or enter two track
meets. OF course the coaches
must agree, too.
Meanwhile, while Move n

track candidates are running

Skipper-Owner Mediocre OK'd

Kodiak fishing boat owner-op- orators would benefit under pro- visions of a measure which was ap- proved this week by the Senate Commerce Committee.
 The Magnuson-Bartlett bill to re- store Public Health Service med ical care privileges to owner-op- orators of fishing vessels would benefit an estimated 5000 to 11,000 persons. The bill was amended to include an additional 1000 persons serving on documented vessels strictly as fishermen and not per forming any navigational duties.
 At present, fishermen on docu- mented vessels receive medical care only if they perform sea duties. Medical care applied to owner-operators of such vessels until eight years ago.
