Wrestling, a sport which is gam1ng great popularity in schools in this area, has ¡been added to the list of sports participated in by Moeller students. Through the efforts of Coach Morrissey, Moeller's relatively inexperienced grapplers have several mat victories over more experienced teams . . Plans are now being made to start a wrestling league consisting of both public and parochial schools. If the pions are carried through this would be the first public-parochial athletic league in this area.

Twenty teams competed in the Moeller Intramural Bowling League. Handicap rules applied so that each team could have an even chance of winning. The league consisted of two ten week rounds; the winner of the first played the winner of the second for the championship. Trophies were given to the winning teams and to the bowlers with high average, high series, and high game.
Bro. Oravets takes a personal interest in the league.
