Basketball Along about the latter part of October basketball officially began at the Gorham High School, In about two weeks Coach Dunn had his starting line-up picked and was ready for the first game. On the night of Nov. 16 the Gorham team started the season off with a bang by def eating Wolf Lake 29-27 in an over-time period. This was the second time in over eight years that a Wolf Lake team has been beaten by a High School team from Gorham The starting line-up in that first victory was asfollows: P, D. Baggett, forwardg Bill Schimpf, forwardg Charles Asbury, centerg Bob Knoke, guardg and Charles Pickering, guard. Had this same line-up continued for the rest of the year the won and lost column would have been greatly changed but due to many unexpected developments this line-up had to be changed three or four times before the close of the season. The day after the semester exams two of the first six men were eliminated from basketball due to failing grades. This was a serious blow to the team who, with the help of two or three second teamers, were able to win four more games before the mumps claimed Knoke and Baggett. With only two first team men left Gorham put up a great fight but were defeated in the next five games. ' Gorham ended the regular season just as they started by a crushing defeat, this time of Grand Tower. At the end of the season the totals were 10 wins and ll loses. , Following is a list of games and the scores: GORI-IAM OPPONENTS 29- ---- - -Wolf Lake - - ------- Z7 35 ---- - - -Royalton - - ----- - - -37 35- - - - - -McClure- - - - - - -22 38- - - - - -Alto Pass- - - - 52 35--- ---Percy ----- ------30 41- - - - - -Grand Tower- - - - V- - - - -26 54- - - - -Ava ------ - - - -Z9 42-- --- --Thebes--- --- - -----39 21-- --- ---AltoPass--- --- -----36 33- - - - -Wolf Lake - - - - -4-O 25- - - -Campbell Hill- - - - 38 40- - - - -Vergennes- - - -ZZ 43- - - - -Ava ------ - - - 41 51- - - - -Grand Tower - - - - 27 37- - - - -Percy- ---- - - - -48 36- - - - -Vergennes - - - -37 33- - - -Thebes ----- - -4-7 27- - - -Campbell Hill - - - -39 60- - - - -Grand Tower - - - - 28 39- - - - -Royalton- - - - - -52 21- - - - -McClure - - - - - -43 -----P.
