DEEDS AND MISDEEDS —13 BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM BASKETBALL Central was well represented in basketball this year by a squad of thirteen players and since we will not lose a one by graduation this spring we have prospects for an even better team next year. Although we missed the use of the “old gym” which was sold to Kirkland High School, we managed to get along very well with practice from 4:30 to 6:00 each evening in the Decatur High School gym. In the season’s opener, December 2nd., Central swamped the Geneva eighth graders by a score of 77 to 2, and followed up with two decisive vic¬ tories over St. Joe (2S-19), and Gar¬ rett (39-14). In the next few games we were not so successful and lost twice to St. Joe and once to Garrett. These were the only defeats of the season, and the boys come back strong in the next three games, winning two from Monroeville and one from St. Joe. We were hoping to get a chance to defend our title of County Champions, again this year but a county eighth grade tournament was not held. In our games with St. Joe, we lost the two out of three game series, for the city championship, but won the last game played at the end of the season, making the count two all. Each player on the squad was equipped with a new grey sweat shirt, with a blue letter “C” on the front at the beginning of the season. The members of the squad for this year were: Chester Hill, Robert Brown, Marion Feasel, Carl Buffenbarger, John Hill, Hugh Engle, Herman Burk- head, Dale Myers, John Hill, Glen Elzey, Vernon Hill, George Helm and Darrell Williams. Helm and Williams graduated from the eighth grade at the end of the first semester and were replaced by Gerald Strickler and Dick Sutton. Brown was high point man during the season, secur¬ ing 93 points, while Chester Hill was second with 47 points and John Hill third with 44 points. Feasel, Buffen¬ barger, Myers, V. Hill, and Burkhead also proved valuable men on the team. Central scored 305 points during the season to their opponents 177.
