BASKETBALL Under the superb coaching of Mr. Von Behren the 1939- 40 basketball team proved fairly successful with drawbacks due to the fact that several inexperienced boys were out for the squad and also several were hindered in height. We believe that many fans of the 1939-40 team were not primarily a group of fans that came to watch the games and went away down hearted because of a defeat. East Lynn basketball boys have always been noted for their scrappy playing to the last seconds of the game and never giving up. The regular team consisted of, Arthur Jacob, center, Kenneth Bauer, forwardg Wayne Denman, forwardg Donald McConnell, guard, and Dale Hammerton, guard. 'Art' Jacob proved very successful at the ,position. He carried out his job in getting rebounds. Art had the spirit to fight hard to the finish. 'Kenny' Bauer, although hindered in size and weight carried on very successfully. He was fast and very clever in handling the ball. Soc was also a good shot from almost any- where on the floor. Wayne Denman fulfilled his duties playing the other forward position. Nickle Plate was a very hard rebounder and a good shot from the side of the floor and in the pivot position. Rex will show up greatly next year. . Dale Hammerton showed his ability as a very successful guard. He was a very heady player and clever ball handler. Hammerton acted as Captain of the H39-40 team and we are firm in our belief that he was liked by all players and fans. Donald McConnell took charge of the other guard posi- tion. Although not a heavy-scorer Don justified himself as one of the steadiest players on the team. He was the main spark in the defensive position. An invitational tourney was held at Potomac. Teams competing were: Armstrong, East Lynn, Henning and Poto- mac. Drawings were made just before the game with Armstrong playing Potomac and East Lynn drawing Henning. The first game was won by Potomac. The second game of the evening was a thrilling upset, with Henning winning over East Lynn by a mere three points. The second evening came up with Henning playing Potomac and East Lynn playing Armstrong. East Lynn came back the second night to defeat the Armstrong five and win the third place trophy. Potomac won the second game of the evening seizing the first place trophy and the second place was awarded to the scrappy Henning boys, Page Twenty-f ive
