This necessitated revamping the team. After the first few games of the second semester, jackson again returned to the win- ning end of the score and counted among their victories two wins from their old rivals of Ann Arbor High. The 1934-1935 schedule was a hard and difficult one, fourteen games being played, in which several new faces were seen on the floor for their first season as 21 Viking. They all came through with a wonderful record. JACKSON 1-HGH SCHOOL Page Seventy -1 1935 T
