After losing to Wagner and Reliance in the first two games of the season the Cubs rebounded with a win over Plankinton and went on to win the Conference with an impressive record of eleven wins and one defeat. During the Conference grind several non- conference tilts were lost by very close scores. Five games were lost by two points or less. Two of these games were lost in an overtime. The 1954 Cubs were runners-up in both the Conference and District Tournaments, losing to Kimball both times in the finals. The schedule this year was one of the roughest any C.H.S. team has faced.

Our expectations have been to issue a book that will bring back many happy and pleasant memories of the 1953-54 school year. We have added four pages this year in order to include all of the activities of C. H. S. We wish to thank our sponsors, the Chamberlain Busi- nessmen for their very fine support. 50 THE CUB STAFF 1.
