derer—isn’t he?) He remained in
fcCall through the first semester
of the 9th grade and then moved
back to Camden. (Well, at last
we’re got him back in Camden!)
since he's settled for awhile, may
be we can tell you a little about
the Billy we know.
Baseball was the first sport he
went out for—4n the 9th grade.
Billy played on the High school
team his first year back—very good
for a beginner! In ’47 he started
playing Legion ball with the Ker-
laaw team and in ’41, with the
Camden teem doing reel well In
the course of the two seasons.
Taking more Interest in sports
every year, Billy finally went out
for basketball and football in his
Junior year, alternating for first
string his first year in basketball.
Billy didn’t play too much his
first season of fbotball but he made
the fimt team this year and was
chosen to play in the Home Bowl
game held here in Camden. (He
earned a gold football for his work
in the Horsa Bowl).
Thus far Billy Dixon has earned
three baseball letters, two basket
ball letters and one football letter.
Our letter-making friend will grad
uate In June with an average high
school record and plenty of good
references and wa, the senior clam,
can truthfully say that Billy is
classmate to be proud of.
And Billy, dear people. Is our
outstanding senior for this week.
We have a right to cheer that hard
working fellow, don’t we?
The Blaney boy* have success
fully opened their baseball season
by defeating the Mount Oliva team
