"When my enlistment was up a while back I sure jumped at the chance to sign up again," says Sgt. William W. Morales of San Diego. Bill's an athletic director in the Army and 1st string pitcher on his outfit's baseball team.
"A young fellow who wants to continue with sports while he learns a skill or advances his education sure gets a swell break in the Army," says Bill. "You get plenty of time for athletics, and you can't beat the Army for technical training and education. Add it up—free training, good pay, sports, travel—it's tops."

Weaver, Kirchman Collect Thirds in CIF Spike Finals
Anaheim track Larry's, Weaver and Kirchman, brought CIF bacon home last Saturday as they racked up a trio of thirds in CIF southern section finals at Long Beach. Weaver soared 22'5" in the varsity broad jump to collect one of the medals. Kirchman picked up the other two in the Bee 100 and 220.
Along with the third place bauble, Weaver's jump earned him a ticket to Sacramento and the State track finals next Saturday.
The 32nd Annual State High School Track and Field Meet at the capitol city's Charles C. Hughes Memorial Stadium will bring together California's best prep athletes. Weaver's competition will consist of two jumpers, besides himself, from the Southern section, three from Los Angeles, three from the North Coast, two from the Central section, two from the Sacramento-San Joaquin area, and one each from San Francisco, Oakland and the North section.
A senior, the Colonist kangaroo will take his parting shot at the AUHS broadjump record next Saturday. His 22'5" leap at Long Beach missed the mark by 3 7/8". According to Coach Sam Keith, Weaver propelled himself over 24 feet last Saturday, but brushed the sand a couple of feet back.
Wallinmen Bow To Rosemead
Visiting Rosemead edged John Wallin's Colonist varsity 8-7 in a long, cold ball game under the La Palma Park lights last Friday night. Considered a rarity, the nightfest was the second in Colonist history. It marked the Anaheimers second loss to the visitors during the 1950 season.
Moundsmen for the Blue and Gold were Bob Troutman, graduated from the JV's for the occasion, and Dick Ramella. Between the two of them, they allowed the victors nine hits.
Anaheim picked up six knocks from a host of Rosemead pitchers. Big stickers for the locals were Minard Duncan and Joe Bruce, each of whom pounded out a pair.

Tabbed a 33-1 shot by the b makers, Crosby arrived here yesterday and did not have chance to practice over famous "Old Course," which closed on Sundays.

Webb gives backhand a CIF match with Montebello F Play.
A senior, the Colonist kangaroo will take his parting shot at the AUHS broadjump record next Saturday. His 22'5" leap at Long Beach missed the mark by 3 7/8". According to Coach Sam Keith, Weaver propelled himself over 24 feet last Saturday, but brushed the sand a couple of feet back when he came in for a landing.
Time spent working on starts all last week helped Kirchman considerably at Long Beach, Keith said. This was particularly evident in the Bee 100 where the Colonist streak was just a step or two behind the first and second placers. Winning time was 10 flat. Kirchman was clocked at 10.1.
Kirchman led the pack in the 220 but faded in the last 25 yards and had to settle for third. Winning time was a slow 22.9, brought about when track officials, for some strange reason, ran the boys into a stiff wind.
With the close of Bee track activities at Long Beach, Kirchman hangs up his spikes for the season. Next year he'll break them out as a Varsty 440 man, Keith said today.
STANFORD AIMS AT LINK TOURNEY
STANFORD (AP) — Stanford's golf team has its sights on the national collegiate tourney at Albuquerque June 26 after winning the team and individual championships of the Pacific Coast Conference's southern division.
Sophomore Dick McElyea trimmed California's Ted Engs 2 and 1 in Saturday's finals.
He was three over par.
It marked the Anaheimers second loss to the visitors during the 1950 season.
Moundsmen for the Blue and Gold were Bob Troutman, graduated from the JV's for the occasion, and Dick Ramella. Between the two of them, they allowed the victors nine hits.
Anaheim picked up six knocks from a host of Rosemead pitchers. Big stickers for the locals were Minard Duncan and Joe Bruce, each of whom pounded out a pair of hits. Duncan smacked a solid double over the left fielder's head. Anaheim's hit of the evening was contributed by Bruce who bashed one into left field that sent mates Larry Weaver and Ronnie Lemcke scurrying home. Bruce fetched up on third and eventually scored on Johnny Patin's bunt.
It all happened in the first frame, the big one for the locals. Subsequently, they scored two in the third and two in the fifth. The rest were goose eggs.
Like the last time the teams met, Rosemead dropped behind at the outset, only to explode later and ice the contest.
Staging a grand slam third inning, the invaders victimized pitchers Bob Troutman and Dick Ramella for six runs in a wild and woolly spree.
With none out, the bases loaded and one run already on the books, Troutman evacuated the mound in favor of Ramella. Dick saw five more opponents cross the plates before he called the thing to a halt. Most unkindest cut of all was the one by Rosemead's little Tony De Savo which knocked three men in.
The visitors scored two more in the third before they returned to the field.

Church Leaguers Open Tonight at City Park
Weather permitting church league softballers open the 1950 season tonight with a doubleheader at City Park as Church of Christ takes on Grace Lutheran in the year’s very first at 7:30 p.m. and Calvary Baptist and Presbyterian match bats in the second fracas which starts around 9 or shortly thereafter.
Thursday night, softball fans will see tangles labeled St. Boniface-White Temple and Bethel Baptist-United Bretheren.
Thus far a total of 10 squads are entered in the night league. Besides the above eight, Zion Lutheran and St. Michael's Episcopal have units ready and waiting.
Games, which are admission-free, are scheduled for Monday and Thursday evenings up through August, says city recreation director Don Derr.
The call is still out for at least two more church teams, Derr indicates. With 12 squads in the running, two separate leagues could be set up with an eye to a city play-off at the end of the season. Entry fee, which covers the cost of balls and trophies, is $26.
All games will be played at the City Park, according to the present schedule. However, hopes are that the softball section of La Palma Park will be usable later in the summer.
Jackie Robinson, 1949 National League batting king and most valuable player, has a .312 three-year major league hitting record.
