Coaches Eye Players in Teener League Tryouts

The VFW Teen-er League has began operation for another year with tryouts being held last week. There were 26 boys attending the tryout and all of the coaches watched with practiced eye to see what each boy could do. A few nights later the coaches met and each boy was auctioned off by the point system. Each boy going to the team that paid the most points for him. Judging by the spirited bidding it was evident that some of the boys were in great demand.

Following is a list of the teams and the players bought by that team this year:

Thogersen Motors: Phil Jarvis, Leroy Henderson, Bob Chambers, Harold Schmoll, Larry Krank, Kent Marmon, LeRoy Tyler.

Chad's Furniture: Bruce McMorris, Don Benson, Jerry Larson, Jim Nelson, Mike Little.

Tractor & Equipment Co.: Gerald Hillman, Dave and Albert Penna, Jim Mock, Rick Johnson, Dale Adler, Tom Davidson, Bernard Youngkin.

F. T. Reynolds Co.: Curtis Anderson, Neil Hartman, Mike Conroy, Herbert Jubin, Roland Ludlow, Robert Palmer, Harold Solberg.

This week is being spent in team practices. All four teams are looking forward to winning the championship and are working very hard to get in top shape for the season. There are still openings for more boys on these teams and if you are 13-14 or 15 years old and want to play good supervised baseball just call or see Ed Thogersen at Thogersen Motors. He will see that you get on a team.
