Description

Looking forward to the best year yet in the school's short athletic history, the Braves will be seeking their third straight win in as many starts. Game tomorrow will be played, along with nearly a score of other tilts, for the benefit of the PTA milk fund, used throughout Los Angeles City Schools to provide milk for needy children. Braves hold win over Roosevelt and Verdugo Hills." Pictured is Gary Johnson - Left End.
