Bishops Edge Fork Union For Third Straight Win
Our track team extended its win- ning streak to three meets by edging Fork Union Military Academy by a 60-57 score. The Meet was a close one down to the last, the final event clinching the win for V. E. S.
Co-Captains Len Muse and George Barlow joined t o score exactly half the Bishop's points, with Muse single- handedly tallying 21.
Muse broke his own record with a heave of 162 feet, 8 inches. This toss excelled his old Javelin mark by nine feet, eight inches.

Dick Donovan's Dad To Give V. E. S. Commencement Sermon
(Continued from page 3, col. 3)
School for Boys. Cape Mount, Liberia. While in Liberia, he held the position of Treasurer of the District of Moravia. He returned to the United States in 1929 to become rector of Tuno Parish, Fairfax, Virginia. Ten years later Mr. Donovan became rector of Christ Church in Charlottes- ville where he is at present.
The V. E. S. commencement will be delivered at the regular I I o'clock service on Sunday, June 3, 1951 .
Bishops Maul Cadets By 22-1 Count
Virginia Episcopal School batters rapped out 23 hits as its baseball team played flawlessly afield to wal- lop Miller School of Charlottesville 22-1 on the loser's field.
Doug Van Noppen and Frank Gil- mer each pounded out four hits for the winners and each came up with first inning triples that pounded in a total of five of the 10 V.E.S. runs in t h a t inning. Milton Barber and Billy Thompson each grabbed three hits.
Sox Sibley received credit for the win although he was relieved by Van Noppen in the fifth. C. A. Young paced the Cadets with two hits in as many trips.
Golf Team Prospects Bright For 1952
On almost any clear day the passer- by may observe quite a few boys on the athletic field, viciously slicing at a diminutive pill, apparently with the object of digging trenches or furrows in the turf. Then an idea hits the on- looker with the force of a lead flat- iron. "Why not have a golf team next y e a r ? " he asks himself. W i t h such stellar performers as Fitzgerald, Cockerille, and a multitude of others, we could turn out a formidable array of golf talent. However, one problem presents itself: the problem of a golf course. There are many solutions to this pressing problem. W e might use the Reusen's country club, providing the students can scrape up enough dough for green fees. Of course, the easiest method would be to level the gym and infirmary and place the course through there.
Seriously, though, we have bound- less talent which could no doubt make a n a m e f o r V .E.S. in V i r g i n i a p r e p school circles. Some of the more adept performers, Sibley, Barber, Davidson, Bell, and Snavely, com- bined with Mr. Lee as coach would make a team not to be ignored.
White Team Wins Field Day Meet
On May 22, the White Team scored an easy 124 1 2 to 370 victory over Lonnie Muse's Garnets. The Whites, captained by George Bar- low, took 14 of the 18 first places and a majority of the second and third places. Van Noppen aided his los- ing cause by taking scoring honors for the day with 19 points.
Roe and Barber, two juniors, were top performers for the winners with 17 and 16 points respectively. Wills added 15 more with three wins. Schill- ing gained eight points to place second in total points scored in the senior division. Tho Garnets were the winners last year. This year's Field Day has pointed out a few very good prospects for nex~ year's track team.
