Even after the varsity schedule and the tournaments were over, the effects of the malady stuck to some ofthe students. Freshman and sophomore home rooms organized their respective teams and formed the After-Supper league. Once a week they engaged in rough and tumble games, the main purpose of which was to uncover prospects for next year's Junior Spartans. Winning thirteen games out of their sixteen-game schedule, Coach Ken- neth Cook 's Junior Spartans for 1930-31 went through a most successful sea- son. The three games lost were the reserves of the varsities of the schools played. The Juniors scored 432 points to their opponents' 290. Two of their members were taken on the first string for tournament play. Making themselves known in basketball circles as a team that would fight to the last, Coach M. C. Pruitt 's Spartans Went through a hard schedule with a marked degree of success, but Lady Luck refused to smile at tourna- ment time, and the end came in the regional. The season's record showed sixteen of the twenty scheduled games on the victory side of the ledger. Six of these Well known boys will be lost by graduation,-Shellhouse Kee, llalberstadt, Bell, George, and L. Craig. 1 SPARTAIN RECORD 'Uv ' C. H. S. Opponents C. H. S. Opponents C. H. S.
