Cats
Stomp Five
|
The
Wildcat baseball team, sporting a five game winning streak, are well
on their way to the group four championship. Though early in the season,
the Cats have successfully hit every pitcher they have faced, defeating
Lakeview 13-3, Apopka 17-3, and Wildwood 11-1.
The winning pitcher for the Cats who faced Lakeview
was Terry Williams, who gave up 6 hits, walked 2, and pitched 12
strike outs. Facing Apopka was Jackie Billingham who gave up 5 hits,
walked 1, and 5 strike outs. Throwing for the Cats against Wildwood
was Dewey Ramsby, who usually plays shortstop. Dewey gave up 2 hits,
walked 1, and chucked 8 strike outs.
The big bats for the Cats this season are seniors
Al Burris batting 542, and Rich Winslow batting 309. Most of the starting
lineup are hitting the ball well and batting over 200. Williams hit
a grand slam homer against Apopka to wrap the game up.
The Cats are playing good ball this year, due mainly
to the senior experience. The roster holds 11 seniors, and only seven
juniors and sophomores. Four of the seniors have been on the baseball
roster since they were sophs. This can account for the hitting strength.
The Cats will face DeLand on the 11th, Bishop Moore
on the 14th, and Colonial on the 15th. All of these games will be
played at Harper Sheppard Field. |

Michaels in the 220, Fleming in the shot put and
again Michaels in the discus.
Just a day before this record meet, Winter Park
placed second in the Boone Invitational. Boone won with 101-1/6
and Winter Park came up with 64-1/3. Other teams that placed were
Melbourne with 48-1/2 and Ocala with 28 points.
The golf team met its first defeat at the hands
of the DeLand Bulldogs. The tally card showed DeLand ahead with
a score of 18-1/2 - 2. Gary Schroder was the only Wildcat winner
at any time.
Good Luck to our tennis team on their first state
wide tennis tournament this weekend up in Gainesville. We're proud
of your record thus far. Six wins and no losses.

CLUBICITY
By Pamme Anderson

The
Inter-Club Council has plans underway for their Beautification Project
which is to be fittingly called "Weed Day". Time and careful
examination have gone into the forming of this project, and any help
from the student body of WPHS will be greatly appreciated. More news
about this project will follow at a later date.
The Science Club has elected its officers for the
'61-'62 school term. They are:
President: Jim Stokes.
Vice-President: John Hoche.
Secretary: Mary Hoelle.
Treasurer: Beth Harlow.
Historian: Bob Jadwin.
There isn't much more to say at the moment about
club activities. Why don't ya'll get busy and do somethin' spectacular;
then write it down on a piece of paper and turn it in to me? It looks
mighty good to see your name in print!!! |
