As in past years, the Junior College was again represented on the maple-woods by a tall, hard-fighting quintet. Sporting a season ' s record of 10 wins and 12 losses, the Grizzlies several times surprised the experts and the opposition by upsetting the dope and emerging victorious over teams ranking high in the conference standing. In- cluded among the Grizzly wins were a 35-33 win over Hutchinson and a 55-49 triumph over the Eastern Conference winner, Independence. Completing their regular season in a tie for fourth in the conference, the Bears again entered the annnual A.A.U. meet at Wichita. Playing against the best Kansas has to offer, the Juco team defeated the Newton Miller Produce and the Goddard Athletic Club before losing to the McPherson Legion, the eventual champion. For their attitude in this tournament, the Grizzlies were presented with the team sportsmanship trophy. Reese Hess, captain, and Harold Parker were also given Honorable Mention on the All A.A.U. team. Hess and Jack Bowers were given additional honors by being named on the All-Conference second team. While the season ' s record was not a winning one, Coach Bill Hill and the Juco players deserve a great deal of credit for giving the college an aggregation of which it can be proud. 21
