SUCCESSFUL   GOLF   SEASON
Sctiool Team Wins Championship
The Sewickley high school golf team
has just concluded a very successful
season during which it won the championship in Section II of the Inter-
scholastic Golf Conference and defeated
Kiski, National Scholastic Champions,
in tho semi-finals. Aspinwall, University, Wilkinsburg and Shadyside went
down to defeat before tho local team's
long drives and deadly putting in tho
first half of the season. Only Spring-
dale was able to defeat Sewickley's
golfers to tie for first place at the
end of the first half.
In an exhibition game, Turtle Creek,
leaders of Section III, defeated Sowickloy by a close score, but Aspinwall,
Springdale, University, Bellevue and
Shadyside were unablo to accomplish
that feat so that Sowickloy won the
Section II title. During the second
half of tho season, Wilkinsburg defeated Sewickloy by a close margin, but
Sewickley did something that no other

team had been able to do—whitewash'
their   opponents,   in   the   gamo   with
University.
Members of the team were chosen
by competition for low medal scores
for thirty-six holes. The captain and
No. 1 player is Paul Trudell, No. 2
Alfred Ford, No. 3 Albert Sirianni,
No. _ .Tack Peters, No. 5 William Patterson, and No. 6, or alternate, Billy
Pord. These are tho players that
toppled Iviski, tho national champions
for three years, from their throne at
Alcoma Country Club last Thursday,
by a score of 11 to 4. However, in a
startling reversal of form, the local
lads failed to play the same brand of
golf over tho Pox Chapel course on
Monday of this week and were defeated by Turtle Creek, 14 to 1, Al Pord
gaining the lone point for the semi-
finalists. As a result, Turtle Creel-
Union High Sehool won tho AVestorn
Pennsylvania Interscholastic Confer-
once championship and also a leg on
tho now Dr. Thomas S. Arbuthnot
trophy.
