Cathedral has always been a baseball school, although two years ago the school tried without great success to sponsor both baseball and track. But, since more boys can participate in track than could in baseball, the Bluebirds have switched to the cinder sport.

Aldrich had a turnout of 32 at the initial sesison, and has a schedule. Aldrich is seeking opponents for his new squad. He hopes to enter the 'Birds in a planned College View-Teachers meet, expanding the dual to a triangular. He is also trying to arrange meets with Concordia of Seward and St. of Fremont.

Cloudy skies and the threat of rain failed to halt Lou Finney and his squad from going through a two hour workout but the weatherman called for more rain Friday and threatened the club with its first missed day of practice. The first cut in the squad was made Thursday when the contract of Pitcher Jerry Levinson was returned to Hagerstown. Hagerstown immediately sold Levinson to Wichita Falls, in the Class Big State League. That leaves Finney with 13 pitchers, three catchers, three infielders and three outfielders.

A first baseman is expected from Atlanta around the first of April with a shortstop slated to Join the Chiefs before the season opens on April 15. Finney sent the club through another long hitting drill Thursday with Norm Brown. Ed the, Roger Wright, Bob Mathieson, Sal Federico and Junior Bunch doing the pitching. Bunch reported a sore shoulder and became the first pitcher to be sidelined. It was not a sore arm, however, and Finr.ey expects him back in action in a couple of days There was still no word from Outfielder Danny Holen w'ho had wired Finney he would be a few days late to camp.

Finney said that Roger Wright would Join the pitching staff for the Sunday game against Randolph Field replacing Levinson. He will join Ed Lenthe and Bob A a special meeting of Board of Education, the members spiked rumors that Northeast High School basketball games would eventually be moved to Lincoln High School and that the latter school would have a superior physical education program. Board members Elmer Magee and Chairman Robert Venner stated they had attended meetings needed, of northeast Lincoln residents to attempt to straighten out the basketball Plans do call, said Venner, for construction of a Lincoln High gymnasium with a seating capacity of about 5,000. The structure, however, is not being built for spectator sports, he said, or with any idea in mind of moving Northeast games to Lincoln High. Lincoln High, he explained, has no physical edncatton facilities now and thns needs a large building.

sium and the new building will give them separate facilities for boys and girls and at least equal to Lincoln High facilities. Venner stated that architectural problems prohibit the addition of the new Northeast gym to the existing structure, thus giving one larger gym. He pointed out, however, that the new structure can be added onto later as Magee also noted that the 1,440 sealing capacity should ha adequate in view of ttie faet that Northeast never fliled its existing gymnasium during the past basketbaill season. He added Uiat he was opposed to building spectator space with public funds anyway. The issue, said Venner, has been confused with the proposed new football stadium to be erected at 33rd and on the Rogers tract.

Those plans, he At Northeast, plans call for said, do call for the centraliza- erection of a gymnasium to seat about 1,440 persons. Venner and Magee pointed out, however, that Northeast now has one gymna- tion of all high school football games but basketball has no connection whatsoever with the stadium.
