The members of the teams were seated together at tables arranged in a rectangular design and specially decorated in their honor. On each of the tables was a replica of a basketball floor with the players in position. The faces on the figures were photographs of each member of the teams and the officials, Evans and Cooley, who were speakers during the eve- ning. Within the rectangular enclosure between the two' long tables were large baskets of red roses and also the trophies won by the teams during the year. To make the evening one never to be forgotten by the members of the teams and the large audience honoring them by their presence, a fine pro- gram of -entertainment was provided. Th.e Lucky Seven orchestra from Nevada entertained throughout the dinner hour. Howard Hilburn, President of the School Board, acted as Toastmaster throughout the evening. Honoring the occasion by their presence and in- spiring talks were Bill Evans of Carroll and Wayne Cooley, a favorite cage official known to everyone as a fine friend. Howard Hilburn also introduced Superintendent Ray O. Forbes, who gave an inspiring talk. and Coach T. 0. Martin who presented letter awards to the teams. Coach Martin presented seven major awards and five minor awards to members of the boys squad and' 10 major letters and 8 minor awards to members of the girls squad. Darlene and Arlene Tudor wer.e announced as having been elected eo-captains of their squad by their teammates, and Richard Smith and .lohn Nelson were announced as co-captains of the boys squad.
