gigs-514: 5 PDLYSCD'PE E :Q-!1s:.s'f3 f161j Basketball SAM ZIMMERMAN-A1lOlIl1GT Roanoke product, was a mighty hard man for the foe to deal with on account of his ability to stick with his man and his speed. Sam also has another year to take part in the winter pastime and no doubt will make it tough for some one who tries to make a regu- lar berth at guard. His experience this year has surely been worth a lot to Bradley's basketball team. GAYLORD WOLTZEN-That tall lanky boy from Roanoke, is going to be a comer. Gay played second fiddle to Diz Johnson this year but in a few games he played second to no one. This year has no doubt been worth a lot to Gay in the way of experience and by next year he should be able to fill the vacancy left by Johnson in great style. He should be another Tweedale when it comes to jumping. ' RALPH JOHNSON-The only member of the entire squad to pass over the entire route by graduation has always been a hard, faithful worker and his reward for that long grind was to be a member of a champion- ship team and to prove so valuable to a team of such high standing. His smiling face and his drives into the basket will be missed in 1926-27. FRANCIS DUKE-FI'8Sh1Dal1 and substitute forward, probably shows as much promise as any other member of this year's team, so rapidly did he develop. Fran was a member of the noted Spalding High School basketball team and has shown his worth to all Bradley basketball fans even as a substitute. Had the season gone on a short time Fran would undoubtedly have been seen in action quite frequently. We are expect- ing him to make a finished basketball man next year. JAMES SWENEY-Al1Oth9l' freshman and substitute forward, has made a good start for himself in basketball history at Bradley. He came through very nicely and at a most opportune time when playing against a team from his own home state, Cornell, of Iowa. Jimmie was a mem- ber of the Osage, Iowa High School team that won fame at the National 'tournament at Chicago a few years ago. Jimmie is a willing worker and with a little more experience in college competition he will surely be of valuable service.
