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.

 I X T K R (Continued from page 25) by Floyd Funderburg, acting captain for the E. II. S. Indians. Attendants for the queen were Bonnye Bay- less. a pretty lass of the junior class; Lois Williams, sweetheart of the freshmen; Dolenc Hebberd, presi- dent of the Pepett pep club; Bernice Wise, president of the Squaw pep club. Escorts were Bob Kelly, cheerful lad of the senior class; Pat Wrigley, one of the front-rank freshmen; Bobby Lee Morrison, the extra-special leader of the sophomores; and Clifford Whiteman, president of the Ogimas. WINTER was really quite hot when the Pepetts, Squaws, and Ogimas started yelling, singing, and cheering the Indians on to victory—The Ogimas were oh-so proud of themselves when they wore their new blue and white jackets—There were really three bas- ketball queens. Two of them were the mascots for the girls’ pep clubs. Mary Jane McMillan, Pepett mas- cot, and Jane Lee Kelly. Squaw mascot. They won the heart of every basketball fan when they took Mr. James G. Saied's place, lifted the batons, and put the E. H. S. band through the paces. WINTER'S end also closed basketball season. It was a “swell” winter, full of fun—The crack E. H. S. basketball teams came out of the frays with many victories — Class room activities were varied and kept the students interested — The many assembly pro- grams. which broke into the day’s routine, were both entertaining and educational — All of these events combined make WINTER 1941 unforgettable. ★ ESSAY YYIXXERS Buddy Fox, Edward Von Tungeln, and Joe Mon- gold were the first, second, and third place winners in an essay contest sponsored this year among El Reno High School senior boys by the Aircraft Train- ing Service, Inc., of Oklahoma City.
