BACK ROW, LEFT -RIGHT: David Allen, Winston Stanley, Coach Don Coates, Leslie Spurling, Robert Hamblen. Grade basketball practice began in November for the Mt. Desert Junior High School and for Stetson fifth and sixth grades. Kelley Auditorium and the Stetson gymnasium were utilized. Games with Southwest Harbor, Ellsworth, and Bar Barbor were played. Although the season was not successful as far as won and lost games are con- cerned, the boys played hard and clean ball, practiced faithfully, and promise to be good material for future Mt. Desert High School teams. With each game came improvement from experience, with each practice, a greater understanding of basketball and the importance of fundamentals.

THIRD ROW, LEFT-RIGHT: Bob Wood, James Hooper, Ronnie Pinkham, Nick Nicholson, Dale Lurvey. This year our team has only two regulars returning. The two veterans are Gordon Gray and Pop fsneaking dustl Wallace. Although we have lost most of our team through graduation, this is the largest and youngest squad in recent years. All nine positions are open and there are twenty-two boys to fill them. Since we have had our new ball field, we have had the impressive record of eighteen wins and five losses. We reached the quarter finals in the semi- finals in the state tournament in 1951 and the semi-finals in 1952. With agreat deal of hustling teamwork and desire, a successful season should be evident in 1953. Those reporting with their spikes, caps, gloves, etc. , are as follows: Gordon Gray, Pop Wallace, Torn Conary, Tete Carter, Ron Mussetti, Gary Tyler, Hank Scribner, Steve Miller, Joel Atwood, The Taylor Twins, Duane Jenkins, James Hooper, Nick Nicholson, Dale Lurvey, and Dana Sherer. These players will provide our coach with nine starters, thirteen benchwarmers, and twenty-two headaches . WHITNEY'S ELECTRIC CO.
