Altogether the junior Indians participated in 13 contests, managing to win 9 of the 13. which is a good record for any team. Playing approximately the same brand of basket- ball as the ‘’A’’ team, the squad literally swarmed over most of their opponents, with but few close shaves. El Reno cage fans are hoping for a successful sea- son next year. The “B team, most of whom will graduate to the “A team, should satisfy this desire after a little more experience and practice has been gained. Euirene Dozier. Harry Oarrett. Billy Oebhart.

 A” BASKETBALL With the coming of winter, the eyes of El Reno sports fans turned to basketball. Under the approving eye of Coach Anderson Green, the Indians got off to a flying start by anni- hilating the Kingfisher Yellowjackets on the home maples. The Tribe then tramped to Ponca City, where they received their first setback of the season. Playing host to the state champion Ada quintet, next, the Warriors, displaying sparkling ball, blasted the Cou- gars off the hardwood. The squad then opened the Boomer conference schedule against the Lawton Wolverines, but met de- leat by one point. However, the quintet reversed the situation on the home battleground the following week. Again meeting the Ada Cougars, the Indians this time dropped a close decision, and then met the Clas- sen Comets, who also kept the Tribe’s score below par. The squad regained its balance by again submerg- ing the Duncan Demons. Playing host to the Central Cardinals, the quintet ended up on the short end of the count, and slipped again against the Enid five. The Indians next gained revenge on the Classen Comets, but fell before the Chickasha crew in the Chicks’ henhouse. Following this, the Tribe closed their season with another smashing victory over the Anadarko Warriors. To further enhance their conference standing, the Indians pulverized the Duncan Demons on the Duncan! j court. But unfortunately when the Indians plaved J host to the Enid Plainsmen, they were unable to combat successfully the highly touted Plainsmen. The Tribesmen managed to skim by the Central Cardinals and slid past the Chickasha Chicks, hang- ing two more scalps on their tepee. In another conference engagement, the Redmen clashed with the Anadarko Warriors, easily scalping them. Finishing second in the Boomer conference, the Warriors turned toward the state tournament, where the Indians set back Northeast of Oklahoma City, but lost a heartbreaking tilt to the Classen Comets to the sorrowful tune of 23-22. The Tribe emerged from 20 contests with 11 vic- tories against 9 defeats. With the loss of only a few regulars, the Indians are looking forward to next season with great ex- pectancy.
