The 13 win - 10 loss - record for the season saw many standouts-- Lohmeier, who was the 'feeder' and who rarely ever shotg UBig' Beecham and 'Milt' Truman left little to be desired under the basket amd rebound- ing departments, O'Grady, Gagen, n' Kryger - demons on defense, and then Walentine who smashed all Cathedral records by scoring 318 points and received numerous honors under the guidance of Aldrich. A few of these notable honors are: Honorable Mention first string berth on the All-CatholicJTournament team, High City Scorer, and three awards from two newspapers. Big Jack was the workhorse of the team and handled himself very agily beneath both baskets. Helping Wally in the up- court was WFlippingn Phil Becker, a smooth ball-handler with a dead eye for long shots. Becker also landed a first string berth in the York Tourney and followed up his team- mate with a healthy 213 points. Becker and Jack alone accounted for over half of the Bluebird total, a record of 915 points. Unfortunately with the leaving of- six veterans via graduation, the 'I49-'50 club will be greatly hamper- ed. But a seasoned Reserve crew with O'Donnell, Rice, 0'Grady, and Trueblood will present a good team.
