SENIOR ISSUE BASKETBALL, 1925 Shore's basketball season, like the football season, was a success, only more so. The boys knew that hard work was necessary to make a good showing, so when the call for basketball players went out, a large squad reported to Coach Burkett. This squad was soon cut to about 20 players and then the real work began. After the fundamentals came some new plays, and team-work was stressed as being very important. By the time the season opened the first string men were in good condition, and arearin' to go. West Commerce, Longwood, Euclid tnon-conferencel, Rocky River, and Euclid again were met and defeated in rapid succession. Then we were upset by john Marshall. By defeating Shaker Heights the following week we finished in a tie for the championship of the Greater Cleveland Conference. Hard work, the desire to win, good support by loyal Shorites and the dandy new suits combined to make a very successful season. Shore has every reason to be proud of her record this year, and can look forward to a very successful year next year, as only one regular, Sammy Disantis, and one sub, Homer Watkins, leave us. Sammy was a star all year, was high point scorer in conference for Shore, and was picked on the all-conference team. Monk was unfortunate in having serious illness keep him out of basketball practice early in the season and this was probably what kept him on the bench most of the time. Dick Timms, our captain, was another star, and was also picked on the all- conference team. Dick is an all-round man but his responsibilities as captain seemed to interfere with his work on the team this year, and his playing suffered. Hack McGrath, Tony Skubic, and Edward Osborne complete the list of Shore's stars. All were good players, and all should improve in the years to come. Shore is lucky in having such men to count on in the future. Oh, yes, there are two substitutes, johnny Kleifield and Stub Bob Jennings. Both showed up well when they got a chance to play. We might also mention that shortly after the season began Carl Brigleb was elected manager and Kenneth Vogel assistant manager. Kenneth will be the full-fledged manager next year. OUR SECOND TEAM At the beginning of the season the conference officials decided to schedule second team games with the first teams. Accordingly our second team also played before us. They made a poor start, but finished in a blaze of glory, defeating Euclid, john Marshall, and Shaker Heights. The second team contained the follow- ing players: Hubert Watkins, jim Brazee, Kenneth Waterbury, Roxy Montana, Bill Haw, john Luikart, Tony Yurglic, and Bill Gill. All should be real stars next year. QAutog1 aphs I 11 l
