Kneeling: lstudent THE FRESHMAN TEAM ENGAGES FOES A Freshman team was organized for the first time at Culver this year. Culver did have a C team which was made up of both freshmen and sophomores, but this new team is only for freshmen. The main purpose of this group is to give as many boys as possible a chance to devel- op in basketball. lt gives them another year of experience like that of the Junior High teams, and prepares them for the B-team. Their practice sessions are integrated with the B-team two nights a week. The Freshman team had a six game sche- dule this year playing Argos two times, Bourbon, Aubbeenaubbee, Winamac, and Plymouth. They also played in a four-way tourney with Argos, Talma, and Aubbee- naubbee the other schools participating. Next year's plans call for a full l6 game schedule, plus the four-way tourney. The letter winners on this year's Freshman team are Richard Calhoun, Terry Cavender, Art Eskridge, Don Hand, Larry Holston, Charles Hardin, and Denny Geiger.

PAPOOSES SHOW PROMISE FOR FUTURE The Papooses really had a rough season this year. Just before the season started, Dan Little, one of the returning B team players broke his foot during practice, thus leaving the team minus one player for about two months. 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. The height of the team as a whole shows a great deal of promise for next year, Here are the results of some of the out- standing games ofthe season: Opp. Culver LaPaz 38 37 Walkerton 29 33 Akron 43 4l Rochester 40 37 Bremen 34 3l Tyner 29 40 Argos 26 30 Nappannee 21 26 Robert Mikesell, Larry Zechiel, Dale Bennett.
