Ponies Scamper
Is Huge Success
The Ponies Scamper, Seward
High Sports show given Friday.
Oct. 29, sates as the best show
Seward has seen for a long time.
Before a packed house, with many
spectators croweded into standing
room only, the participants went
all out to give the spectators nev
er a dull moment—And not a dull
moment did enter into the two
and one-half hour flast moving
program.
The calesthenics drill team,
composed of the 7th and 8th
grade physical education classes,
were exact in their execution of
military and calesthenics drill.
The little second graders added
their cute touch with their curtsies
and d. ncing. Some of the boys
were more interested in their row
bo\ si- •.-.hooters than they were
in their partners.

The boxing matches were more
than good. The boys pulled no
punches. Ably refereed by Lt.
Keidser and judged by Father
Turner, Ray James, and George
McMurry, the matches came out
as follows:
Stanley Anderson vs. Antril
Suydam—Anderson winner. Norm
ally a draw, the match suddenly
ended in the third round when
Anderson’s wicked left broke Suy
dam's tooth.
Dick Murphy vs. Louis Dick—
draw. With, footwork hampered
by being in gunny sacks tied at
tile waist, these two stood chin
to chin and slugged it out, both
apparently believing that offense
is the best defense.
Art Sanders vs. Dick Deigh—
Art Sanders winner, showing ex
perience to outpoint Deigh.
Ted Gerwer vs. Gray Rogers—
draw. Botli were black as Aces
of Spades after three rounds of
connecting. They were boxing
with gloves covered by creamed
soot.
Donald Starkey v.s. Jack Webb—
draw. Reputedly, a grudge fight,
they went to it, but Webb was not
able to maintain his point lead.
Donald Strutz vs Mac Lohman—
Strutz winner. The object was to
break the most ballons tied to
contestant. Pat FrieUe's balloons
were tough, but several couldn't
withstand the hammering blows.
Strutz had the most balloons left.
The Keidser towheads. Arvid
and Karl, sons of the referee, won
a draw, showing training from
their father, who is the amateur
boxing champion of the New Eng
land states.
The semi-finals between Don
Steele and Bob Keefe ended in a
draw with blood drawn.
Keith Gray and Terry Fillingim
climaxing the boxing events with
a draw.
Ronnie Lewis' tumbling team
put on a routine which brought
laughs and thrills. Richard Matt
son’s bellyflops, Strutz’s somer
saults, Billy Anrig’s hand-walking
and the entire routine was well
organized and prepared. Little
first-grader Mickey Bill Muir on
top of the pyramid was so very
confident until suddenly the pyra
mid collapsed.
Following Lewis’ tumbling team,
two local men of Seward put on
an exhibition of perfection in acro
batics. A last minute addition to
the show, they provided a profes
sional act which cannot be de
scribed fully to anyone who has
not seen it. It is hoped that this
team will continue to w'ork to
gether. The men were Keith Cob
ban and Clyde Gordon.
Two wrestling matches featured
Bob Morgan vs. Loren Lansbury
and Bill Erwin vs. Raymond An
derson. Both matches were alarm
ing because of apparent roughness
—arm-breaking, slugging, and foul
play. All four were good grunt and
groan artists. Foul play was played
up and acted according to rehear
sal—to inform worried elements of
the crowd. It did look rough, and
was from some standpoints.
Probably the final event before
the motion picture outstanding.
Vera Lohman knocked Keith Gray
out with a blackjack before each
got a "severe beating” from the
other. “John L. Sullivan” Gray!
with his cigar and "bottle" was
sure of himself until little Vera
finished him off. Little Vera was
not so ladylike.
An educational motion picture
entitled "Basketball Today” cli
maxed the program.
Comment from Coach Knapp, di
rector of the show, is as follows:
‘‘AH credit is due the boys who
put on the show. Almost every de
tail of preparation was accomp
lished by their efforts, and the peo
ple who attended the show know'
the rest. From a supervision vieu'
point, Loren Lansbury was a great
help. I am sorry that he is leaving
Seward."
