TRACK TEAM TO REPLACE
BASE BALL AT CARTHAGE HIGH
School Board Makes Decision After
Considerable
Discussion — Spring
Football Practice Next Two Weeks.
According to an announcement
made^by Superintendent R. G. Wallace of Carthage high school, base
ball will be abandoned this spring as
an athletic activity in the school curriculum. The board of trustees arrived at the conclusion after considering
the proposition from several angles
it was said. The condition of the field
during the early spring months and
the shortness of the season for playing games, are given as reasons .for
dropping base ball from the athletic
program. In place of baseball, spring
football practice' will claim the attention of Coach .Richard Crawley and
following about two weeks of football training, track work- will .be
launched. It is expected-that a track
team can. be developed within a few
days- and tHat Carthage, high school
will be represented at meets in- northern New York, where other high
school track teams are being organized. .
. • .
Carthage high school has turned
out some exceptionally fast base-bail
teams during the past ten years and
many local, fans, as well as students,
who nave supported the high school
games Will regret that the school is'
not to be represented this season by
a ball team.
