The Var came to a close with the team's having won two and lost nine league games, placing the Hornets last in the Bux-Mont League. However, the success ofthe season should not be judged by wins and losses. Because of their fight and spirit throughout the season, many of the league's leading teams were given quite a scare by D.l'1.S. and were almost knocked from their lofty perches. High scorer this year was Don Mc- Carty, forward, followed by lim Douglas, center. For the best shot from the free throw line the honor goes to Harry McKinstry, center.
