Thu~day, April 19, 1962 THE TIMBER-CRUISER Page'3 JaCks Are . Ready for Spring Trip to Sollth Sportarama 'I1he Alpena Community College baisebaH squad is ailmost ready to depart to the sowllhland\S, for their annual spring baisebald trip. 'I1hls 1mip has brought atbout many opin- ions and I would liike to express mine. The golf team this year has an ama2iing total of four meets. When asked why this was so, Mr. Heim- nick repJ.ied, "W eJll, Tl'averse 0ity does not h>ave a giolf coach this year and there are other sc;hooi[s whiclh are too fur away." Wlith two weeks of practice un- der their beillt in the cold cldma,te of 1Jhe nooth tlhe Mpena Lwnberjaeks are ready to make their tl'lip furoUJgh Kentucky. Rain and snow have hampered ,the Jacks in pracbice sessions but co-acll Dutcher has been able to narrow hiis team doWl!l considerably since the beginning of practice. 0atchin.g will be a strong point for fillis years team which is a large asset to any team. 'I1his year the ,team, is we'.hl stocked witJh four cat- -chers. Lyle SClhroeder will probably get the nod, but he is backed up by Jim Glennie and Olin Kaufman who also play the oUJtfileld. John -Doyle also catches but he has been playiing first base. Coach Dutcher says that tlhe in- field will be good and tlhe outfield adequate. Well, if tlhis dtoesn'it take the cake! The baseball team gets a nice spring v>aootion whihle the golf team as wel!l as the other spring ,sport teams, stay home with no -competitive teams. President Ken- nedy has stressed a strong physica.J edooation program in every insti- ,tution. Tu; this Wlhalt one would call -a strong physi.ca,J education pro- gram? How can any athlete get anything out of a spo;rt without any competition? Oh, yes, one can com, pete with one's team members. Coach Dutcher and three of his Kentucky Travelmates "Ready for the road" 'J1he infii:eld is pretty w~M sm with Darrel Hendriclh, Don Sauters, Bob J-ohnston and John Doyile reading from third to iiirst respectively.

An eilitoratl pmnited elsewhere in thLS issue suggests -that the school dispose of at least one or two of 11he spovhs, and use funds for subsidmng danceis and the TIMiBER-ORUISER. To this we add it.he idea: dispose of a'll bwt two (baek-efea, place funds in a pool for il11tramur- -a1 activity. Had AOC an admirable record 1n aH of these ventures, we would not -be so bold as to mention these <thoughts. Investigation indicates, however, :that •aill previous indul,g- ing in such "e:io!lras" as golf, tennil'l, track, etc. have ended merely in fiascoes. Should one bring up the favorable adveritisdng oppol'tunities to be found in a wide variety of inlter,oollewi.ate sponts, we refuite with a reminder of 11he hereJtofore miserable semblance ·of a big- -school sports program, and with the preVli.ous su,g:gestion--6ubsti1JJI- tion of an Intramural program. Tihe advantages of Intramural ispo:rts are many; we list here only a few. 1. Such a program is capa,ble of reaching more students -itihose odlhel'Wise unable to panticipate. 2. If emphasized, the .program could prove just as valuable for publicity puTP()SeS as the wide in- ter-collegiate framework presently >Simul,a,ted. 3. The expense of such an un- del'ltaking would be minimal in comparison with the present plan. (See SPORTS EDITORIAL Page 4) PROFIT The outfield is still not decided on. Coach Dutcher h-as Jim Glenil!ie, Jay Robarge, Larry Shwtz, Vic Ner- kowski, Olin Ifaufman and Ken -Hawes. The hiitming wfuH be good in •the outfield burt; the fielding may leave iornething to be desired. Larry Burger, Wayne Somers and Jlim Hornack made up it!he "Big Three" of the pd.tcll!i.n,g staf;f. Hor- nack is the olJlly lefit hander on tihe team. Gary Burnham will aloo be used. Aiiiter their rmum from Ken, tucky the Jack's will be ready for the conference season.
