The Burkeville girls had a very enjoyable season on the court this year. • Although their won-lost record was below average, they won some very im- portant games. The most treasured win of the season was a one-point margin over Newton the night of Open House for the new building. Doris Rudd and Betty Clark made all-tournament team in the Burkeville Annual Invitation Tournament. Betty Clark was chosen on the all-district team. Sandra Rudd, the only senior on the team, was elected captain. BI-DISTRICT CHAMPS 63-64B STANDING: Jimmy Westbrook, Manager, Earl Stephen Hines, Alwin Zachry, Benja- min Lindsey.
