BASKETBALL I.aRue Donald Donald is without any competition the tallest man on the team. He is from DeRidder, Louisiana. Slim is one of the best centers Southwestern has ever had. He never misses a tip-off. The basket is almost impregnable when he is in the guarding position. Donald com- pletes his career at Southwestern this year. Buster McMurry The human bundle of fire, fast, a good shot, and how he can dribble! The talker-upper of the team. Buster is an all around man, tucking under three letters at the close of the sea- son ' s contests. McMurry is a member of the wrecking crew from Homer, Louisiana, the home of the fast and furious boys. Another man who will be sorely missed. Buster leaves Southwestern this year, but we feel that he will always be in our midst. Luther Perrin One of the fastest and most versatile members of the squad. Kaplan, Louisiana, is the proud domicile of this young man. Perrin is one of the best forwards in the conference. He can emerge from any crowded situation. Does he miss any shots? Sometimes I must say that he does, but notice the answer remains nt sometimes. Raymond Rupert Rupert has completed the last and the best year of his college career. He was the spark- plug of the 1935 quintet, he is also a proud possessor of that never-say-die spirit. Rupert is one of the most aggressive forwards ever produced at S. L. L Again we are indebted to Kaplan, Louisiana, tor sending us this sterling performer. Raymond also terminates his col- lege career this year. Herman Sigler Sigler presents an almost impregnable guard to every opponent. He can cover half the court with one hand. Herman comes to us from Grant, Louisiana. Sigler seems to have an obsession for free throws, this is his customary way of adding points. Ah! We do not lose this man — he has another year, and should prove an important cog in the 1936 aggregation. MosBV Lindsay ' Purely a local product, that ' s what Lindsay is. He hails from the city of Lafayette. Mosby is a very good defensive man, endowed with the fighting spirit which is indispensable to any athletic team. He is a cool player and his shots at the basket seldom went foul. Lind- say has another year on the squad and we are sure that he will again star for the red and white. Raoul Landry Cow as he is known to his friends, is another Lafayette High man. He is the pos- sessor of a body beautiful and also has remarkable control over it. His shots at the basket were good and his ability to get down the court was unexcelled. Cow is a sophomore and he will before he ends his days, be one of the shining lights of Bulldog Basketball. Leon Smith Smith, who hails from Longville, is a guard of rare ability. He was noted for his abil- ity to keep a man from shooting and also for his coolness on the floor. He has been a faithful trainer and a loyal Southwesterner. It is men like Smith who make for better team- work and better sportsmanship. J. Y. Duncan Here is another one of those three-letter men. He ' s a crack end on the football squad, a trackster who will put in his bid for national fame this year, and a nifty basketball player. Dune has the ability to play and he puts his heart and soul into the game. He is from Ale, andria and he is a credit to both his home town and Southwestern. Harry Saucier Little Harry , who is another Lafayette product, is one of the most good-natured and best-liked men on the squad. Harry didn ' t get much chance to show his talents this year, but just the same he was always there and raring to go whenever Coach called on him. He ' ll be back with us next year, and I ' m sure you ' ll see more of him in action than ever before. ( 133)
