- -4"-ll 1IQMl4l ANNIUAIL 1 BASKETBALL The boys on the basketball team have certainly shown by their efforts and by the way in which they played that they understand the game. They were hard fighters from the time they entered the game until the closing whistle blew. They did not win quite as many games as last year's team, but they surely did their best. The boys showed much improvement as the season progressed. They proved their good sports' manship by their playing whole heartedly on losing games. Much credit is due to the coach, Mr. Martin. He has proved his ability by getting the team organized and starting the new recruits. The five starting men were Dean Blough, Bricker, Slater, Giet, and Henry. Dean fBlukej Blough, forward, A substitute from last year, Dean has earned a regular berth this year. As Dean is a Junior he will probably be a valuable player next year. He is second high scorer this season. Kenneth fBrickj Bricker, forward. He also is a substitute from last year and has gained a regular berth on the varsity. He will probably hold the position next year. Carl QWhiteyj Slater, Jr., center. "Whitey" is a new player this year, but is a very valuable one. He is always there to iight and to score. He was high scorer for the team this season. Robert fBobj Giet, guard. Bob is a good man on defense and as a back guard. He is also good on offense. Bob graduates this year. Junior fHenj Henry, guard. From a substitute of last year, "Hen', has worked himself up to be one of the Hrst men on the Varsity. He has worked hard playing basketball and was a mainfstay of the team. "Hen" will graduate also. The four substitutes of the Varsity deserve much recognition also. Although they didn't see much action on the Varsity, they really showed the spirit. They are: Harold Reese, Arthur Meyer, Eugene Sigler and Jimmy Blough. . BASEBALL Although our baseball team lost quite a few of its Varsity members, it has made a ine showing, The boys out for baseball are: Henry, Giet, Markley, Sigler, Bricker, Reese, Coffey, D. Blough, J. Blough, Meyer, Ripley, and Lucas. Considering transportation difficulties, the baseball team has played quite a num' ber of games. For further details read the Athletic Calendar.
