Reserve Basketball The reserve basketeers had a rather poor record to show for the efforts for the season, but this was neither the fault of the players or the coach, Jerry Udell. Something more to their credit than winning ball games was the fact that several boys who started on the reserves had enough ability to gain the varsity team when that squad became short-handed. Had the Indian reserves played the entire season with the boys who started on the squad, they would no doubt have compiled an outstanding record. Jerry Udell turned up three outstanding Sophs early in the season and these boys were promoted to the varsity. They were Van Williams, LeRoy Middleton, and Bob Steffen. Warren Bunyan was another who made the varsity ranks. In all, practically three separate teams were used during the season, and among them, they gathered 3 wins and 11 losses. One of the sore spots of the season was the loss of three contests to Northern in the Little City Series . Not including those boys who went to the varsity, 13 received awards. They were Ray Page, Howard Welch, Jack Skaff, Jim Winters, Art Reynolds, Sam Allen, Wes Waldron, Les Farkas, Bill Oroz, Chuck Knowles, Jerry Myers, Louie Szabo, Ken Slaght, and John Lancaster.
