It was a leap year dance, the girls took the boys and also asked them for the dances. Besides being a leap year frolic, it was a Sadie Hawkens dance. By that is meant that the people attending were suppos- ed to dress correspondingly with characters other than themselves. Some were garbed like comic strip characters and others dressed to represent cowboys, farmers, hunters and Mexican caballeros. The music for the dance was furnished through the courtesy of Dick Adams, of the Gamble Store. He let the girls have a radio, phonograph and several records. For those who did not wish to dance, there were several ta- bles of Chinese Checkers, and the stage was set to represent a cafe. Lunches were served and again the girls treated the boys. The party was called to a halt about 11 o’clock. Everyone had a very enjoyable time and the dance was a success for the AGS of Elgin High school.

This put Elgin out as it was a single elimination tour- nament. E. H. S. could boast of a very strong basketball team, a num- ber of the players were put on the all-star teams. Glenn Ray. a senior, was one of the outstanding guards. He was large and fast and it was hard to get the ball past him. He was placed on the second all-star team at the Elgin tournament and received special mention at the Arlington tournament. Lawience Long, also a Sen- ior, was a very good forward. He didn’t get much chance to play in the biggest games, but was always ready and could give a good account of himself on the floor. These two boys will be greatly missed next year. Orval Trump, as junior, was a forward who was very fast and made a good deal of the points for the Huskies. He was on the first all-star team at the Elgin tournament. Joe Black- man. a junior, was one of the best guards, and a very good ball handler He was named on the first all-star team at both Elgin and Arlington. Glenn Maxwell, a Junior, was the tallest man on the team and a very good shot. He played center and forward. Tom Barnes, a junior, was a good ball handler and played guard. Others who were very good were Keith Tucker, a freshman. Deraid Young and Jesse Trump, both of whom were sophomores. The coach of the team was Mr. Mitchell and the manager was Truman Hebener. 0 KKHWH«HKK CH30 K
