Shortly after the season got underway, Dave Washburn was moved up to play on the Varsity squad. Bob Mikesell was his replacement on the line-up, but before the season ended, Bob got sick and had to give up basketball. The Papooses had a desire to win and kept right in there all the way. For almost every game there was a different high point man. This shows that they have the ability Standing: Don Wynn, Ned Herr, David Booker, Dan Little, Benedict, Mike Fitterling, Robert McCoige, Norman Thomas Pedersen. to shoot, but that they need to get consist- ent.
