Eternal God, Creator of all things, remember that the souls of infidels have been created by Thee and formed to Thine own image and likeness. Behold, O Lord, how, to Thy dishonor, hell is being filled with these same souls. Remember that Jesus Christ, Thy only Son, suffered a most cruel death for their salvation. Do not permit, O Lord, I beseech Thee, that Thy divine Son be any longer despised by infidels, but rather, being appeased by the prayers of Thy saints and of the Church, the most holy Spouse of Thy Son, vouchsafe to be mindful of Thy mercy; and forgetting their idol­ atry and their infidelities bring them also to know Him Whom Thou didst send, Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord, Who is our health, life, and resurrection, through Whom we have been saved and redeemed, to Whom be all glory forever.

Facing the Rhodes Rams in the final game of Against Toledo Central, the Wildcats began the Senate schedule, the Wildcats dropped a to display their true form, although they lost a 53-51 decision and thus lost their chance for the 51-47 heartbreaker to Toledo, the team that West Senate Title.

East Tech 42-37 in an independent contest which had been postponed from earlier in the year. West High's Cowboys next tasted defeat at the hands of Ignatius, and the Cats found no trouble, for they swamped West 43-29. South's height proved too much for Ignatius to handle, and the Flyers overcame the forces of the Blue and Gold in a game which was much closer than the 57-45 score indicates. After this defeat, the Ignatius scoring ma­ chine started to move in high gear. The defend­ ing city champs, Marshall's Lawyers, kept pace with the Cats during the first two periods, but in the third frame, a 15-point scoring spurt put <^Cy^ Ignatius ahead to stay. Marshall came back strong in the final period, but the Scopelmen were even stronger, and the Lawyers fell, 55-46. Next victims of the Blue and Gold onslaught

District Tournament

In the annual District Tournament, the Wild­ cats eliminated three successive foes before losing to the Lincoln Presidents in the West Side finals. First tourney victims of the Scopelmen were the high-riding Redmen from Parma. Though Parma led through most of the game, a fourth-quarter Ignatius rally proved too much for the south siders who fell, 60-56.

108 Next on the list of Wildcat victories was Lakewood High. After they pulled from behind just before half time, the Ignatians sailed easily through the remainder of the game and the con­ test ended with Lakewood on the short end of a 55-41 count. Elyria's Pioneers got off to a very fast start and soon led the Ignatius five, 13-1, in the open­ ing minutes of play. The Wildcats once again showed their true spirit as they fought their way up to within two points of Elyria by the half. In the final period, Ignatius poured in 22 points to. pull well ahead of the Pioneers, 55-45. Playing their third game in four days, the Cats fell to Lincoln, 57-49, and were thus elim­ inated from the District Tournament. For the first three periods, the game was a see-saw affair with neither side seeming to hold any advantage. In the fourth quarter, however, the Presidents pulled away and took the game. Throughout the season, Dave Demko, George $€Uf 1/ee %eu6etfadt Ploucha, and Frank Stringer combined their high- scoring talents to account for a greater part of UPLICATING last year's feat of copping the Wildcats' points. Trog Keller and captain D the West Senate Title, the powerful junior Gene Mio were invaluable to the team as expert varsity squad went one step farther than their floormen and playmakers, and Ozzie Gill and predecessors as they enjoyed a perfect record for John Braucher, with their excellent work under the entire year. Coach Fred George's charges the backboards, were likewise indispensable. All roared victoriously through the season, having other members saw much action also. They were: little trouble with any of their opponents. Chuck Gallagher, Don Hoke, Jim Schram, Brian Donohue, and Dan Florian. In one of their better games, the junior Cats subjected the hapless West Tech squad to a most uncommon humiliation as they piled up a stag­ gering 40-0 lead in the first half. The George- men cooled off in the second half, but won easily, 56-22. The Jay Vees' closest shave was the South game which was a nip and tuck battle from start HE Wildkittens of this year completed a to finish. However, the Flyers finally bowed to Tvery successful season with a record of a score of 37-33. twenty wins against three defeats. Other victims of the high-riding junior varsity Coached by Mr. R. A.
