HARDWOOD MEMORIES I hope to live to be an old, old man but of all my experieices I know I shall never forget those glori- ous basketball days. To some, a list of the games is merely a printed list, but to me every game was an exciting adventure.

IKE—A good man on any team with plenty of height to bring down the ball. When he got started, look out opponents. BARNES—Breaking up fast breaks was his specialty and you could always count on a couple of drive-in shots from him each game. LOUIE—Being short didn’t mean a thing to Louie. Once the game started he got around so fast the oppos- ing players couldn't keep track of him. BLACK—Many people thought there was a magnet drawing the ball through the basket when Black shot those one-handers from the corner. VANDY—It took a real player to get around Vandy and make a basket while he was guarding him. Those left-handed hook shots of his certainly came at the right times. FULLER—It never took Fuller long to get started and sometimes the referees didn't like the way he treated those poor players on the other teams. I have considered it a real pleasure and honor to be captain of and player with a group of fellows like we had on the squad. I am sure they will go forth to carry on and win in life’ as they did on the basketball floor. BILL SMURR, Captain ‘42. Page 26
