MLEY CHAMPS The Bronks, in the second game of the tournament played Stratton, an undefeated team so far this season. The Bulldogs were picked to win, and the had little doubt but that they would win the game. The Bronks were out to stop their winning streak and entered the game with plenty of hustle. Both teams played a tight game and at half-time the Bronks led 11 to 10. The second half was still a close scoring game with Leigh Gage doing most of the scoring for Wauneta, Dick and Bob Bartles-rebounding, and Ronnie Moody and Jack Neverve handling the ball to keep Wauneta in the lead. The Bronks had turned Stratton into their first defeat of the year 25 to 26 after a hard fought ball game. The Bronks then entered into the finals with Grant as their opponent. Earlier in the season. Grant beat Wauneta 45 to 30. The Bronks were out for revenge and entered into the game with plenty of fire but it looked as if the flare had gone out as the Bronks couldn't get their offense to rolling and Grant led with a very large margin of 18 to 30 at the half time. But the Never Say Die Bronks came back after the half with plenty of fire and began to knock off Grant's lead as they piled up 18 points to Grant's nine. The Plainsmen were leading by a mere three points at the end of the third quarter, 36 to 39. Again Leigh Gage's bucket eye was hitting and Jack Neverve was hitting out front. The Bartles kept up their fine rebounding job, and the Bronks caught up with Grant as the buzzer rang ending the ballgame with a tie of 49 to 49. The Bronks then dropped in two buckets to Grant's one and the bell rang ending the ballgame 52 to 54. For the second successive year, the Bronks brought home the Frenchman Valley Trophy. Dick Bartles and Leigh Gage were selected for the all-conference team. 21

FRENCHM The Wauneta Bronks entered into the Frenchman Valley Tournament with seven wins and five losses. This was not such a bad record after losing the first two games. This showed a steady improvement. They were seeded along with Stratton, the team most likely to win as far as the forecasters were concerned, Grant, and Imperial. Back row: Ronnie Moody, Dennis Terry, Delbert Wach, Dick Bartels, Bud Howard, Larry Tatum, and Coach Shanneyfelt. Front row: Student Manager, Wilbert Zarecor, Bob Bartels, Leigh Gage, Jack Neverve, and Roger Gage. The Bronks were placed in the upper bracket along with Culbertson, Palisade, and Stratton. The Bronks first played Palisade, whom they had played twice before and won once and lost once. It was a close game all the way, but Wauneta pulled into a two point lead in the last minute and beat Palisade thirty-seven to thirty-nine. 20
