WRESTLING PROGRAM REGRETFULLY CANCELLED
Mr. Peightal, faculty advisor in charge of student athletics, has reported
that the wrestling program which he had been in the process of organizing has
been regretfully cancelled*
Mr. Peightal, an ardent devotee of this muscle-and balance-building sport,
hesitated to cancel the sport because he felt Highacres students were very enthus
iastic about learning some of the finer points of wrestling. One of the main
reasons for the cancellation was the inability to secure a gymnasium with suffi
cient mats in which to practice.
However, this does not mean the end of wrestling at Highacres. If sufficient
students—next semester—desire to participate in wrestling, Mr. Peightal promises
to do all in his power to put wrestling back on the athletic calendar.
SOFTBALL SEASON JUST AROUND THE CORNER
The crack-of-the-bat, roar of the crowd, and the peanut vendor hawking his
wares, all bring to mind America's favorite sport baseball. Here at Highacres
we won't have the peanut vendor, and probably not the cowd, but you can bet
your bottom dollar that we'll have the sound of that crack-of-the-bat. (And I
don't mean a. broken bat).
