not a letter-man in basketball, he played three years and gave loyal support to the team. In track Victor went out for the shot-put and discus. Ervin Sand — “Sands” was also a three-year letter-man. In his junior year he was elected to the “all-conference” team as left tackle. His weight and speed made him one of the most aggressive tackles the high school has ever had. Benjamin Graham — “Benny,” another three- year letter-man, went out for football for four years. He played left half during his sopho- more and junior year. By that time he had be- come a valuable and accomplished blocking back. In his senior year he was elected to carry the ball most of the time and proved to be just as good at that as at blocking. He was also out for basketball for four years and earned three letters. In the position of defen- sive guard, Benny proved himself as good and as steady in basketball as in football. Eddie Kuch — “Cookie” earned two letters in basketball and one in football, the latter em- blem in his senior year at the end position. Basketball was his favorite sport. This year he was switched from guard to forward and did a good job at both. Harold Stucker — “Stick.” Although having earned but one letter in football, Harold was an enthusiastic and energetic player through- out his entire school year. He could “take it” and also “dish it out,” thus proving himself a top-string athlete. “Stick” played right guard in both football and basketball. In track he went out for the mile, the half-mile, and the quarter-mile. Raymond Aberle — “Ray” earned letters in both football and basketball in his junior year, but because of a back injury was unable to participate in either sport this year. If he had, he would undoubtedly have earned a letter. Already a track letter-man, he is in line for another emblem this year. He went out for the mile, the half-mile, and the quarter-mile. Charles Merrick — “Bud,” playing fullback in football this year, earned a letter. He proved himself a very good punter and runner. He started playing basketball this year and had chances to make the team but left school to go to Washington. Charles Fleming — “Hawk” earned one letter in basketball, playing at center. Because of work, he did not have time to take part in football this year. He was an ardent supporter of all sports and we were sorry to see him leave Ellendale. Lowell Klatt — “Klatt” came to E. H. S. this year from Barnard, South Dakota. He went out for both football and basketball. He showed that he had the spirit and sportsmanship that make a good athlete.
