An eventful year was climaxed by winning of the inter-class basketball tournament. The “greenies” were instrumental in selling bonds and stamps.

The Sioux, colorfully arrayed in red sport jackets, added color and enthusiasm to pep rallies and games. Night football rallies and rallies at convocations, as well as “stunts” lktween halves were among their activities of the year. Officers for the football season were Yvonne Gundy, president; Helen Biggerstaff, vice-president; Beverlv Wachter. secretary; I’na Taylor, treasurer. At the beginning of the basketball season new officers were elected as follows: Beverly Wachter, president: Wilma Myers, vice-president; Shirley Kvans, secretary-treasurer. The Sioux sponsor for tin year was Mr. Jones. With “we must meet the deadline” embedded in their minds the Indian Staff began making plans for publishing the school paper. Assignments were given by the editor and the reporters were held responsible for covering their beats. With copy read and dummy made up the presses began rolling. Now with stapling done, its ready for the student body who look forward to its bi-weekly appearance with anticipation.

SCORES Opponent Broken Bow Opponent Broken 1 13 Arcadia 13 12 Ord 0 7 Sargent 14 18 Loup City 6 0 Ravenna 40 6 Callaway 26 6 Cozad 7 0 Ansley 21 SUMMARY OF THE SEASON roach Tom Journey’s inexperienced Indian squad opened the season with a 13-13 tie at Arcadia. A week‘later a much improved Indian squad traveled to Sargent to win 1 1-7 over the Bulldogs In the season’s first home game Broken Bow trampled a heavier Ravenna team 40-0. The game was highlighted hy an eighty yard kickoff return hv Marvin Booth. In the next game Broken Bow traveled into the Matte Valley to win a -i decision from the Cozad “Haymakers.” This was one of the hottest contests of the year for the “Indians.” Broken Bow returned home for their first defeat of the year as they met Ord on the home field. The game was a hitter battle hut when the final whistle blew the “Chanticleers” had crossed the double line twice to win 12-0. The Indians still smarting from their first defeat were handed their second in a row at the hands of Loup City. The discovery of a new hack. Don Hacker, was Broken Bow’s only consolation. On Armistice afternoon Broken Bow climbed back into the win column as they defeated Callaway 20-15 on the home field. On a bleak Thanksgiving afternoon five seniors played their last game as the Indians beat the Anslev “Blue-Devils” 21-0. The game’s outstanding player was Ma� vin Booth, who continually broke away for long runs and scored all three touchdowns. Although the “Indians” lost two and tied one. the season mav be considered successful. 1 he team was composed of inexperienced men as only five lettermen returned for the season. As the 1944 season approaches the possihiliies appear good with nine lettermen on hand to give Broken Bow their brightest prospect in many years. TOM JOCKNKY. Coach DON LEFLER WALLY ROSE HOWARD RUSSELL GERALD STINEHAGEN FRANK WOOTERS UPPER PANEL l)ON LKFLKK Sophomore Forward Playing his first year of varsity basketball. Defier shows plenty of basketball ability. Further development of his pivot shot should make him a major threat in his remaining years of competition. WALLACE ROSE—Junior Guard “Wally” displayed his talents as a defensive player llis rugged physique naturally assisted him in the under basket tussels. Should be at his best in the senior year. I IOWA III) RISSELL—Junior Guard Howard came to Broken Bow from Milhurn. A natural basketball man. he rounded into shape rapidly and was a very valuable man at the latter part of the season. GERALD STINEHAGEX Sophomore Forward “Bid played forward in this, his first year of varsity competition. His favorite corner shot netted many needed points during the year. Bid should be a leading scorer next year. FRANK WOOTERS- -Sophomore (’(Miter A six-footer and built accordingly. “Curley was a constant threat in basketball. He demands action and does his part in creating it. He should lie a top per former in another year. LOWER PANEL CHARLES COBLE—Junior Forward One of the fastest men on the floor. “Chuck needs only seasoning to bring out his possibilities. He should be a valuable man next year. DAVID CROTCH Junior Guard Big .Mike held down a regular berth as guard where he played his position well. His ability to break down the floor for unguarded shots at the basket made the difference between defeat and victory In several close games BILK DOTY Sophomore Forward Bill displays a smooth seemingly easy-going style which appears almost tireless. Plays a hard defensive game and is usually found where the going is the roughest. You’ll hear more from this Doty boy. JACK DOTY—Junior Guard Another regular guard whose defensive work under the basket was sensational at times. Jack’s specialty was returning the ball off the back board. His guarding should make Broken Bow rate as one of the best defensive teams in the conference next year. (Not Pictured) M RVI X BOOTH —Senior Center “Wilkes” is probably one of the best athletes ever to wear the Broken Bow colors. Fast and aggressive.

Then Broken Bow started clicking, winning from Comstock 43-10. Arcadia 40-20, and Mason Citv 30- 10. Burwell acted as host to the Conference Tournament.

Broken Bow took on the third citv team, (irand Island, and los 48-32. The District Tournament was at Lexington. Without the service of some of their regulars. Minden won 51-21.
