We fancied Morningside's JV, Bee, and Cee basketball teams all fought courageously, but due to lack of experience the Monarch Bee and Cee teams could not pull through with league champion- ships as the Junior Varsity team accomplished. Depth was the big factor in the Junior Varsity success, Morningside can look forward to a strong varsity basketball team next year, said Coach Brannigan of the JV basketballers.

The Bee squad could only manage a 3-lo seasonal record, but they showed a slight spurt of strength by winning two of the last three games. The Cee team could do little better with a 2-l7 yearly mark.

The team at press time has won IO and lost 3 and is expected to finish thirdwifh G I3-4 record. This is the first year that Morningside has sported a JV tennis team. This year they have compiled a 9-2 record to press time. According to Coach Smith the outstanding JV players were Jerry Gast and Jaime Callaco. Although the Monarchs lost the matches against perennial champ Santa Monica, Danny Kaufman and Mike Bell beat top-ranked Santa Monica players. The top achievement this year was the first place taken by the Kaufman brothers at the El Camino tourney. The Kaufmans pulled a brilliant set to beat a championship Inglewood doubles team. In order to beat Inglewood they first had to beat Aviation, Inglewood, and Leuzinger, and they beat Inglewood by a 6-2, 4-8, 8-6 score. The team took a close second behind Inglewood.
