ATHLETICS The rallies were well-inspired with pep and enthusiasm of the whole student body as a result of our champion team ... The R. V. L. Champs were entertained at a banquet here this year and we have a trophy to prove it . . . What with banquets galore our boys felt it was well-worth the winning effort. These gala feats were the compliments of the JC's, the Pep Club, Sid TroBaugh and the Re- publican Valley League . . . The basketball team won second in two tournaments which should seem the equivalent of winning first in one tournament . . . Our favorite athletes put in a big day at Lincoln during the State basketball tournament, Thanks to the JC's . . . An influential factor in our success this year was the installation of new field lights; mak- ing it possible for night games ... A great disaster occurred which almost terminated the basketball season when wiring in the gym burst forth into flame; but as ill fortune dictated, it was quickly sub- dued . . . Some comment has been made of the danger in having the heating stove in the boy's dressing room since Frank Carroll's posterior be- came a victim of it's intensity ... As a result of bad weather, track season got off to a slow start. . . The Trojans were blessed by a minimum of accidents while Cambridge inflicted several serious injuries. . . . Eighteen future track stars reported to Coach Miller for training on March 17 . .. Vaughn Stevens who has qualified for state, is returning this year to break all records in broad and high jumping. -28
