MAGAZINE aslzefll Playing under a new coach, Dale Holt, who was handicapped as there had been no Bee team the previous year, the Enid High School Plainsmen became enveloped in what seemed an average basketball season, but they set to work and once again went to state class A tourney. The Plainsmen were as a whole, inexperienced, having only three re- turning lettermen. Having spent several weeks of practice on fundamentals and scrimmage, the Plainsmen ran up the curtain on their regular basketball season in the Education Building with the Guthrie Bluejays whom they defeated by the score of 38-31. With big E. Cpetej Gun- ning leading the way with fourteen points, the Plainsmen were seldom in danger. The next Thursday night the Holtmen ran up against a stubborn Blackwell lvlaroon quintet, and although they came out on the end of a 22-20 score, they were in continuous trouble as the score was tied on numerous occasions. Bob O'Rourke topped the scoring with eight points. The following Friday the Plainsmen took the court drubbing the Kinghsher Yellow- jackets to the tune of 28-9. This time it was Harvey O'Mealey who set the scoring pace with ten points, and the Enidites won their third consecutive game of the season. The Plainsmen took to the road for the first time this season when they journeyed to Alva where they took the Cvoldbugs handily into camp by defeating them 40-29 with Pete Ounnings twelve points high for the game. Although the Enid Quintet experienced a close shave the following Tuesday, they won their fifth straight game 26-22 at the hands of a courageous Fairview crew. Robert OiRourke dominated the offensive power with his eleven points. The Central Cardinals spelled defeat for the Plainsmen in their Hrst Mirl-State Con- ference game by coming out on the long end of a 32-24 score, Bob O'Rourke,s thirteen points went to no avail. On january 14 the Classen Comets of Oklahoma City proved to be too much for the Plainsmen by winning a 36-26 decision. Although Bob O'Rourke again led the Plains- men's scoring, his nine points were scored in vain. The Plainsmen scalped the El Reno indians 24-18 in a non-conference game on january 18. E. Gunning ripped the nets with thir- teen points to lead the scoring. The next Friday the Plainsmen journeyed to Shawnee and were unable to tame the Wolves who defeated them 36-17. Don Bogert's eight points were high for Enid. On january 25 the Plainsmen packed their togs and went to Oklahoma City where they were overwhelmed by the Capitol Hill Red- skins 43-16. Big, six feet, four inch Bill Waters, All-State Center for the Redskins. gave the Plainsmen an untold amount of trouble by dunking eighteen points. Robert O'Rourkels seven points were high for the Enid team. The Plainsmen experienced defeat the second time for the season at the hands of the Central Cardinals 25-33. Although E. Cunning registered eleven points, the Plains- men were unable to muster enough scoring power to overcome the strong Central five. Playing a return engagement with the Cuthrie Bluejays, the Plainsmen were defeat- ed this time 27-25. The game was a nip and tuck affair with first one team leading, then the other, Bob Hirst topped the scoring with nine P01I1tS. On February fourth the Plainsmen played host to the Shawnee Wolves, and although they put up a gallant struggle, they were overwhelmed 54-32. Witli D. Cole, tower- ing Shawnee Center, scoring twenty points, the Wolves were seldom in danger although the Enidites made the game a hard-fought one. Kenneth Herdman, up from the B Team, led the Enid five in scoring with nine points. The following Tuesday the Plainsmen lost a close one to the El Reno indians 27-25. Although the Enid Quintet led for a goodly portion of the game ,the Indians settled down to business to avenge a previous defeat at the hands of the Plainsmen. On February 15, the Plainsmen, eager for their first Mitl-State Conference victory, met the highly touted Capitol Hill Redskins and were promptly turned back 47-22. With big Bill Waters again paving the way, this time with twenty-four points, the Redskins pulled away from Enid in the second half and went on to win by twenty points. Bob O1Rourke's eight points were high for the Plainsmen. The following Friday the Plainsmen played host to the Norman Tigers and again lost, 32-19, although the game went into an over- time period. Norman, having a well balanced team, tied the score 29-29 in the final quarter and went ahead to win in the extra three- minute period. The Plainsmen played their Hnal home game of the regular season against the Alva Goldbugs whom they easily defeated 35-29. Kenneth Herdman set the scoring pace with twelve points.
