'i O Basketball HOUGH the season was not a rousing success from the standpoint of games won and lost, the Orange and Black quintet was a fast playing team. The team was weak in offensive power, but made up for this with a good defense. Lack in weight and experience cost the squad some games. As the whole squad is made up of underclassmen, the team next year will be a strong one. The games lost by a large margin were with Lodi. Lime Ridge, Baraboo Presbyterians and Reedsburg. The teams were better, larger and played a better brand of basketball. Our team tried their best to win but the obstacles were too great. The games with Merrimac and the Baraboo Y. M. C. A. were close games. although North Freedom was beaten in both. The game with the Baraboo Y. M. C. A. ended in a tie and Baraboo won in the overtime. The games with La Valle were the only games won by the team this year, and they were won by a large margin. Captain Schara was the outstanding player of the year with Schmidt and Griep running a close race. Ristau was out for part of the season with injuries. but was a valuable forward. Petzke, Johnson, Lange and Schara will make a real scoring machine in their next season's play. Buxton is the only regular to graduate. John played some good games during the year, though he was weak in scoring strength. lt is hoped that next year a league may be organized so that the team can compete for group honors. Where gloom prevailed at the beginning of this year, joy will be prevalent next. The experience needed was gained this year. Those who played as regulars were: Walter Schara, C. Ristau. W. Schmidt, R. Ciriep, Petzke, Buxton and Johnson. Page Twelve

Top Row-E. Schara. Johnson, Sathcr, Petzke. P. Lange Bottom Row-Schmidt. Buxton. W. Sahara, Gricp, Ristau Track I-IE North Freedom track team made quite a good showing this year. Their coach, Mr. Sather, tried various ways to encourage his track men, the most successful being the idea of presenting a silver cup, with gold lined center, to the best all-round athlete. During April, the track coach aroused much enthusiasm among the boys in high school by showing them the cup. The outstanding feature about the contest was that it was to be a handicap contest. The best athlete in school would then have no more chance of winning the cup than any of the poorer athletes. The boys did their best to win the cup and in that way the coach could choose the person who did best in that event. The events were: Run- ning and standing broad jump, shot put, discus, high jump, pole vault and the 100, 220, 440 and 880 yard dashes. The track team made a fairly good showing at the track meet at Baraboo. One person could participate in three events, two field and one track, or two track and one freld. This ruling was rather hard for our team, as W. Schara is a good, all-round athlete and is good in all the events. Our track team can boast a good set of hurdlers, but as hurdling was not a feature in the track meet at Baraboo, the hurdlers could not help us win points. Page Thirteen
