FRED BOELTER Butts may be called one of the most valuable men on the team be- cause of his ability to play any position assigned to him. As a forward he proved his capability by his accurate eye for a basket, as a center by his wonderful floor-work, and as a guard by his stellar and airtight defensive play. DANIEL WENZ The center position, our weak spot last year, was ably taken care of this season by Sandy. His height enabled him to secure the tip-otf and was a big factor in our passwork, and his defensive playing was of the best quality. His long arms saved us many a time from being scored upon. ERNST JEHN A veteran of two seasons, Jam was impregnable, at all times giving his best and all of it to the team. He was easily one of our steadiest men. While never overlooking a chance to assist in the teams offense, he was rare- ly caught away from his post on the defense.

g i ii JLmswsm , . oucoaom HENRY IMELMANN Permit us to introduce Hank, the manager of our 28 quint. The man- ager's job is always real work with little pleasure in it, but Hank proved him- self capable to the utmost degree. He was thorough in everything, untiring in his constant efforts. LEO SPAETH Long before the season opened, the responsibility of cqaching the team to a victorious season was vested in Doug, who in his former years on the varsity squad had proven his sterling qualities of sportsmanship and playing ability. Laboring under the handicap of studies and of playing himself, Doug produced a remarkable machine, of which he himself proved to be the out- standing figure with his stellar guarding, his long shots, and his never-say- die spirit.

27',th ZOO! OHCORWI EDWARD KRAUSE Due to a broken ankle at the beginning of the season, ttSuke was un- able to appear on the floor in basketball togs for quite a- time. When he returned, however, it was with a zip and pep that did him credit. Great things are expected of him next year. LEONARD THALACKER HGreased LightningH is Lents middle name for two very good reasons. First, he is so fast that even spectators find it ditiicult to follow his actions on the hardwood. Then, he is slippery as grease; to this opponents can testify. His uncanny eye for the basket more than once made the enemy guards grit their teeth in chagrin. OSWALD KEIPER Kibby was one of the main cogs in the varsity scoring machine. He was the smallest man on the quintet, but his size proved in no way a handi- cap to him. His rip-snorting speed and vicious eye for the basket kept our team in the running in many a game. x. HH
