This is how Pat Kaercher expressed her basketball hopes, as she was crowned SHS's first "Basketball Sweetheart" at a recent Quaker game .
''I was so surprised and excited, . I don't remember anything that happened - except that the crown kept falling off." ,
Having fun seem s to be one o.f this quiet, modest senior 's favorite activities.
Last weekend she, ''went to a show with a boy anq then to a . slumber party- with the girls. "Those things are torture. We catch up on all the gossip. Everybody gets r eal giddy'," she continues. "They q.ct themselves."
"That's important," she philo· sophizes .. It's hard som etimes, but you make more friends that way. ' '
"We drove around all the next day in my dad's dirty-gr een '50
•Buick- that's· our favorite pastime right there. The darn thing's falling - ?Part . We can't go fast 'cause the tires might blow out."
She had only one wreck with her " souped-down" hot rod. "I was practicing backing in and out. I did it right about four times and decided to try again. I knocked over a post in the garage."
But Patty insists, "Women drivers are too scared to be dangerous, " and then she' yells , " Help! If my mother hears all this it'll be the last time I get the car."
When Patty's on strike against the boys, she can usually be found with "the girls." "We joke about playing hookey all the time, but we never do. '!
In her academic course, English is Patty's favorite subject. "It's so unusua l and different from day to day, especially Mondays," she laughs. "Miss Ulicny's pretty unpredictable."
Patty, who things she m ight be- ' come a teacher, comments further on her profs, "Miss McCready's a good egg.\ Oh, help ."

Reporter quizzes Quaker Sam, struggles with gym bleach~rs
1"Greetings ! I'm from the QUAKEE and we want an interview of you." I shouted this at the top of my lungs to Sam, · the Quaker Man, who stands an easy 24 .feet with his shoes bff.
"Fine1 with me, but hadn't thee better climb up on i something so thee won't have to shout so?"
I thought this was a fairly good idea, and I decided that the bleachers would work as well as anything. The only trouble was that the bleachers were all closed, which made ·them rather hard to climb, especially since I am no expert at climbing them even when they're open.
However, with a few pi'nched toes and several smashed fir,igers , I made it to the wide space two-thirds of the way to the top, and, finding this a suitable height, I · commenced quizzing him.
"First, Sam, how do you like yot.:r new home?" ·
"As thee knows, my view o,f the football field was slightly better, but what with more games here, I'ITJ. not so lonely, and thy gym classes are never dull. I ha'-:en 't found a girl tall enough to dance with me. yet, though."
"Doesn't it ever bother thee er,
you /. . . not to be able to play on the team? With your height you would be a cinch to rriake first strmg."
"Well, I was going to try out for the 1 team this year, but when I saw what the
players had to wear . . . well, shorts . . . I, er .. . "
1By this time, Sam was blushing • to the color .of a Quaker1 pennant, so I went on · to the next question.
"Don't you wish you could cheer at all the games.?" ,
"I do sometimes have trouble holding my tongue when it gets extra exciting, but I'm afraid of the shock my yelling would give to the crowd. The kids wouldn't mind, but grownups dqn't ' always understand things like that. I must confess that ofte_n, a'.fter everyone is gone and I have the whole place to myself, I let off a bit of steam.' '
' 'What are your plans afte-r basketball season?''
"After basketball season there is always track, and then in the summer I can' go into hibernation. By then I'll need the rest. But thee can bet I'll be , back in time for the next football season." . "Thartk you very much, Sam!" \ " Thee's quite welcome."

Cagers clobber 6 foes, stop Wellsville 62-58
Copping their llt'1. victory in 12 starts was no easy\ task ,.for the Cabasmen last Saturday night at Wellsville, when a fired-up Tiger quintet fought fiercely until the final buzzer before bowing 62-58.
. Led by the all-court pressing. and fine fast breaking tactics of Dave Hunter, Dan Krichbaum and Jim Lehwald, the Quakers built up a commanding *6-32 halftime lead.
Niles led throughout the entire first three quarters over the Red and Black in a game played at Niles on the pr evious Friday, The fourth quarter, however, was an entirely different story.
In the final canto, paced by Davidson, Solmen and Krichbaum, the Salemites outpointed their hosts 16-1 during the first six m inutes of play and• went on to win 63-56. .
Paced by sharpshooting senior Kenny Cunningham and the re~ bounding of 6-2 Craig Bur-bick, the Potters · could give thJ Salemites trouble. Shifty Bob Mackall, an all-Ohio quarterback, also is in the Potter starting five. Game time tonight is 9. ·
Junior Quakers ·match varsity, With three minutes remaining in
the first half, senior guard Krichbaum picked up his fourth personal and . was immediately removed from the line-up. Rick Theiss, the .tallest Quaker in the line-up, fouled out with 3:50 remaining in the third quarter.
Co-captain Dave Hiinter scorched the nets for 29 ·points at Ravenna January 16 in leading the Cabasmen to an 81-48 trimming.

Salem JV's are currently riding a six-game winning streak since their 46-42 loss to the Youngstown East squad January 5. Bouncing back after the heartbreaking loss, the ZeUersmen responded with a rousing 68-30 victory over Warren Harding the following Friday.

Ace roundballer 'Sol' also . excels· as top cinderman By Jay Albright
"Our toughest game yet this season will probably be when we play Akron East, becaus.e they have height and can really jump," says Quaker roundballer Jim Solmen.
In answer to the oft asked ques- · tions about tournament, Solmen confidently states, "We'll go all the way!"
The rangy 6-2 forward worked his way into the roundball starting lineup on January 23 against the Sebring Trojans and showed his . potential by racking up six field goals and three fouls for a grand total of 15 markers. Ironically, less than a week later, "Sol" was sitting on thet bench with a sprained ankle incurred early in the first half · of the Youngstown Ray.en game.
Jim, who can play either out front or under the boar ds, states., "The toughest position to play is guard; there two men are potentially able to guard you." Points out Jim, "The toughest tq · play against is forward. There is more space to score from close up."
Aside frorri holding his own on the Quaker hardboards, Jim is

also a mainstay on Coach Karl Zellers' Quaker track team. With the thinclads last season Solmen ' turned in a terrific 4 min., 32 secs. for the mile.

Sophom,ore guard Bob Eskay, has tallied in double figures for nine straight games for a total of 146 points. Two-year man Fred Harshman follows close behind with 118. Ron Ja.I}ovec, the 6-3 center, leads the scoring for the big men with a goal of 89.
....... Juniors Duane McClaskey find
Tod Couchie and sophomore Ted Thorne, who stands 6-4, combine with Janovec to give the Junior Quakers a potent rebounding attack.
Last on the , list are the two sophomore' guards, Gary (Gouber) Jeffries, who tallied the winning markers against Wellsville, and John (Beno) Borelli, who usually brings spark into the last half of reserve play.
During the second half the Salemites went into a ball control
· offense and scored only 16 points. The jnspired Tigers cashed in on the opportunity and pulled within two points of Salem 60-58 and had po!)session of the ball with 14 seconds remaining.
Alert Dan Krichbaum snatched the ball from a surprised Wellsville player and dribbled the length of the floor for an easy two-pointer to ice the pard-fought contest 62-58.
With five of the Cabasmen scoring in double figures, Salem had little trouble taming the Tigers of Ra.yen 78-44 Jan. 26.
The Sebring Trojans and the Red Dragons of Niles tasted defeat at the hands o[ the Quakers on Jan. 23 and 22, respectively.
In demolishing Sebring 72-63, the Salemites shot over 45 per cent from the field for the eighth time this season.
By Tony Ever~tt
Once again, as in 1958-'p9, the Quakers hate six ;players who can start in any given basketball game. A sixth man who can start when needed or come into a ball game "cold" and fit right into the line-up is a valua!ble asset to any championship roundball team, high school or college. ' •
Last year Jim Lehwald was aptly given the title of the "fifthand-a-half" man of the state runnerup 1Salemites by Coach John Cabas. The portside-shooting forward broke several close games wide open with his uncanny left-hand jump shots.
In 1959-60 6-2 Jim Solmen and 6-5 Rick Theiss have shared this vital spot on the Quaker varsity. Theiss, a fine rebounder, also • has a deadly jump shot from close in, while 1Solmen can lead the fast break, as well as get some valuable tip-ins. ·
These two boys are currently locked in a battle for a berth on the starting five. Theiss has opened at forward in nine games, while Solmen has started in two of the last three. -
· Theiss, "Bo" to his teammates, was plagued with an inability to hang onto the ball during the opening games, so Solmen was inserted into t he starting five; After starting but two games the senior ~orward was shelved with an ankle injury January 26. ·
This gave Theiss a second chance against Wellsvi111e and . h~ made the most of it for .two and a half quarters, di~playing st rong hands once he ~ot possession of the iball.
FROM HERE AND THERE • Physical education instructor Bob Miller i s currently conducting an after -school tumbling class for boys ,every Thursday and Friday. This is the first remote r esemblance to any intramur a l act ivity in SHS, so it is ce'rta~nly a step in the right direction. ., • Salem is one of the few area high schools t0 have only three varsity sports and no intramural activity in the at hletic curriculum. Wrestling, cross-country, baseball, t ennis, golf and r ifle teams are some of the sports that students of many ~igh schools enjoy in addit ion t o the "big thr ee." • Tonight a t the half'.time of t he varsity game a .trophy .will be presented by t he Key Club of IDast Liverp'Ool to Quaker grid co-captains Ned Chappell and Fred Phillis in token of Salem's victory over t he Potters during the past pigskin season. The Key Clubs of Salem and Liverpool hope to :make the awarding of this t rophy to the winner of the Potter-Quaker battle an annual affair.

Put a little fun in your life. Try dancing .
This familar saying was put to practice recently when gym teachers Miss Betty McKenna and Mr. Robert Miller combined the boys' and girls' classes for a fun-filled session of folk dancing.
Afterwards in the girls ' locker rooms girls were heard · commenting on how much fun was had.
But in the boys' locker room comments were different : "Boy am I tired! Those gals really swing!" ·That just goes to show you, fellas, who's the weaker sex.
What are your opinions on mor e mix~ gym classes? One sophomore girl said that the dancing was a lot of fun, but she wouldn't like co-education 1 in other gym activities.
"It was okay; I liked it a lot ," grinned a sophomore boy.
