ond team for Biz Dawson. GATHA HOFFMAN Center First year on team Gatha is the lanky center on the second team.

FRANK SECCURO Forward-Center Second year on team Frank, commonly known as Dummy, when he is in the game fights from whistle to whistle. Although Dummy does not score very many points. he is always right in the play. Dummy played his best game in the tournament against East Side in the finals, holding Prim. at this time East Side forward, down to perfection. Dummy starred in the State meet and was placed on the second All-State team. DOMINICK AGRIPPE Forward Third year on team 'Grippe was a regular forward. He was an accurate shot under the basket, and had much abil- ity to drop balls through from farther back on the floor. He played three years with F. H. S. and has proved himself a very valuable man. We all are sorry Agrippe will not be back with us next year, but we are sure he will make good in what- every field he enters. FRANK HOLDREN Forward First year on team White Top Holdren played regular on the second team and should make a great bid to fill the shoes of Agrippe, our regular left forward. next year. Holdren started his Iirst high school game against Huntington, and succeeded in caging a field goal, but he was a little small against the big boys from Huntington and was replaced by Agrippc.
