I VARSITY The athletic group which pictures the spirit of Concordia at its highest peak is the Varsity basketball squad. This group of young men is expected by the students to represent their school, and through clean, sportsmanlike play spread the name of Concordia. Since Varsity basketball is the sole inter- collegiate sport, it is naturally the major activity also in the intramural program. To assure better development of basketball material, two teams have been formed-the I Varsity, composed mainly of students from the college division, and the II Varsity, which is made up of high school students. The Blue and White '38-'39 season was hampered long before the opening game by the failure of Pete Meyer to return to school because of an accident that befell a member of his family. Although, however, the season did not result in a long column of wins for the Falcons, it proved that Concordia never lost because of lack of fight, but rather because of lack of age and height. The great majority of opponents were members of four-year colleges, and yet they were often forced to play an inferior game despite their victory. Under the leadership of cocaptains Frank Kekow and Gerard Kohn, who both ended their basketball careers at Concordia this year, the Blue and White experienced a more successful season than last year, not only as far as the number of victories was concerned, but also as far as the show of persistent fight was concerned. In midseason, after only four victories, a reorganization of the team was effected by advancing several members of the II Varsity to the first squad for the purpose of strengthening the team and for the purpose of giving these youngsters experience for the coming years. The newcomers were Robert Stade, Edmund Puseman, Thomas Klewin, Carl Last, and Walter Hardt. This additional strengthening did not result in a string of victories: yet it supplied sufficient spark to keep the Falcons in the running and to climax the season by defeating their traditional rivals from River Forest, 40-37. l52l
