llllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllll .I-I-l.l.l.l.l.l-I l v WALTER ROI-ILING C. S. GRIFFIN Captain-Elect Coach Basketball Walter Rohling is a two year letter man, and is captainfelect for next season. Walt started his basketball career in G. I. C. at the center position, and due to his height and ability, has held this position during his two years. He is tall enough to get the tipfoff, and always makes his shots up under the basket. He will be a good reliable man around which to build a team next year. While at WiHiam Jewell College, Coach Griffin played forward and guard on the Iewell's conference winning team. He made all conference team three years, and was captain of the team one year, therefore Griffin knows his stuff about basketball. He has won the love of all the basket' ball fellows, and they work for him. Although not producing the results he would have liked, with the letter men back next year he should have a great team. -IIIINUIII-III I-IIIII-l.l'l'l'l 'l'l'l.l'l'l-I-I-I-I-I
