' v w Basketball After the Conference season closed, we entered the County Tournament at Orange- ville, but after pushing cars through snow- blocked roads, the boys were unable to win their first game. Meeting the same team at the District Tournament, however, our local boys brought home a victory. The fol- lowing evening our team was defeated by a strong quintet from Winslow. Thus ended the season. 1 l 1 i 1 if J ' + . -w rl , A it I 1 T . Page N inereeiz if 4 . .4

The more experienced players deserving of special mention are Lawler, Lee Meinert, Don Fehr, and Germain. There were several very interesting Confer- ence and non-Conference games this year, although Dakota was not successful in win- ning a majority of the games. Page Eighteen

THF. TALEBEARER mmmmm Kittenball Picture this scene: Four o'clock and a grand rush of cars for the kittenball field. A crowd of enthusiastic rooters soon gather beside the diamond. The cheer leader arrives and starts off with a peppy yell. Then a school song comes floating on the air. Hmm! Must be going to have a game tonight. We'll have to go out and see it. Yessireel They are opening the season with a game with Forreston. You have pictured an actuality at Dakota. Dakota had an interesting season this year. The team was loyally sup- ported by an enthusiastic group of students rooters throughout the season. Although Dakota has not had a successful season in view of the number of games won, the team has shown a fine spirit throughout the season. Every- one seemed to enter the game with a sportsmanlike attitude. First to mention in the lineup is Captain Lawler. our dependable infielder as well as batter. Wells. our first baseman and home-run hitter, together with Lawler, will be missed next year. Lee Meinert, assisted by Kinzer, served the important position of pitcher. Although Kinzer is only a Freshman, he has shown great possibilities at the pitcher's box. Reimer and Fehr held important infield positions. Fisher, Germain. Thoren. Schrademeier, and Zimmerman are worthy of mention as flelders. Schrademeier and Fisher, in particular, performed very creditably in their respective places. Although losing several members through graduation, the remainder of the team should serve as a nucleus from which a fine team can be built next year. A group of enthusiastic Freshmen have shown interest and ability and should develop into good kittenball players. Page '1 wenty
