Bill Clarahan - Moose, immovable object on the board and irresistable force with the ball. Had a great year and should be even greater his last two seasons in college. Will be sorely missed next winter. A sophomore. jim Carter - Mr. Outside on the Tiger roster, jimmy could be counted on to ring the bell from thirty feet. He was one of the top four backliners in the Orange and Black attack. A sophomore. K Jack Anderson - Lefty was of the 'watch charm' variety who could knock the bottom out of the basket and lead a fast break. Also, a top rear guardsman. jack, too, is a sophomore. Sonny Maynard - Sugar , made the change from post to forward with room to spare. With 1011 points in two years, Sonny ranks second only to Ray Potter in the history of Tiger roundball. A sophomore. Bob Ruffin - Another southpaw . Bob was speed personified. Was the leading 'B' team scorer for eleven games. Bob is a sophomore. Acce Atkison - One of the most improved men on the team. Ace was a deadeye from the corner. A real morale booster. A sophomore. Bud Shoemaker - A real team man, Bud could be counted on in a 'Clutch' situation. He was the only football letterman on the team. A sophomore. Gordon Lack - Sophomore - one of the two locker room coaches for the Tigers. Always dependable-performing many thankless and unpraised tasks for the team. 'Gordy gradu- ates this year.
