The team, hampered by an abnormal number of injuries and sicknesses, was at a disadvantage for several games. Having started the season strongly. they were slowed up a bit after the Van Wert game, not fully regaining their grip until the final Whitmer game. I-lt the close of the season, lack Hale was voted most valuable player by his teammates, with Bruce Pickering being elected captain for the year.

V HSITY B SKETB LL... Although Defiance High School Bulldogs' season ended with five victories and five defeats in regular league play, they had a rather successful season. By defeating first Bryan, the league champs, and then Montpelier in the tour- nament, they took home a runner's-up trophy, being defeated 59 to 58 by Van Wert in the finals. Defiance suffered some heart-breaking defeats this year, losing by only small margins. The team was composed of mostly Juniors and Sophomores with only two Seniors.

Cheerleader sports- manship is especially important because the school is often judged by their action. The varsity cheerleaders gave their best to promote better sportsmanship at the football and basketball games. This year something new was added-a Pep Club. The club, organized by the cheerleaders, was the outgrowth of student interest. Its purpose is to get more students enthused about backing the team and giving them endless support-win or lose.
