BASKl TBALL zsyl EE M The team this year not only played good basketball, but they also played the game in sportsmanlike manner. Tf ' Tuffy Robinson, cool and level- headed, made a most able captain. Even though the team did not rank high in the League standing, two of its members were given mention on the All State Team. Captain Robinson and Bud Thompson received this recognition. The pictures in the background show some of the good form and fire that the team had this year and also the cooperation and team- work which characterized the 1938-1939 Juco basketball season. IfThose men who lettered in Basketball this year are Ed Brewer, Otis Cross, Frank Gonzales, Homer Lear, Robert McClure, Martin Mahannah, Fred Robinson, Harold Smith and Roy Thompson.

THE GRIZZLIES FOOTBALL • • • Football players don ' t like to pose for pictures, but after much threatening and with Coach Cornwell ' s help we made them stand still and take it like men. IJThe boys put in a lot of time and hard work attempting to represent Juco in an able manner. The Grizzly Growl, speaking for the student body, salutes this year ' s team for its excellent sportsmanship and untiring work under adverse circumstances. jfThe prospects for next year ' s team look good. Many players on the first team were freshmen and this should mean that we will have a strong team next year. TThe men who lettered in football this year are: Stanley Young, Jack Shirk, Virgil Kelly, Roy Thompson, Calvin Jacoby, Glen Faunce, Harold Smith, Lee Brown. Dick Moss, Joe Fanello, Quentin Doty, Leon Cousland, Bob Hub- bard, Ike Fowler, Clifford Cherryholmes, Jack Thomas, George Widner, Ivan Rich, Fred Robinson and Ed Brewer.

Spring Sports These pictures of Juco ' s track, tennis, and golf stars are not in the least deceptive. The teams look formidable, and so they proved to be in various meets and relays this spring. Quality was predominant over quantity in our track squad. The high point men, Elmer Cross and diminutive Bud Smith, were ably supported by our distance men, Frank Gonzales and Wayne Reed. Our hurdle expert, Keith Miller, lived up to his high school reputa- tion. The field event men, Tuffy Robinson, Francis Bell, and Martin Mahannah were consistent in their performance. The two mainstays of the relay team, Roy Boyer and Jack Shirk, were valuable, as is proven by the fact that., as yet, the team has never failed to place. IJThe wielders of the golf clubs and tennis racquets have acquitted themsalves commendably. They have been consistent in their efforts in glorifying the purple and the gold.
