Coach Ginn Finch Burden Weber Carter Limning Furchncr E. Johnson Basketball I he ( avemen this year had more success in basketball than they did in football. C oach Dale F. Ginn was confronted at the outset, however, with the task of building an entirely new team as only one letterman. Don Burden, was back from the preceding year. The unfortunate loss of Melton Holloway because of an injury early in the season necessitated a complete reorganization of the squad which was really a handicap at the start. Although the team won no conference games, the boys showed up well in them and won most of their non-conference games. Grants Pass will lose only 2 of its 8 lettermen this year in graduation. Grants Pass scores for the season appear first in the following: 30 - - - Rogue River - 14 23 - - - W O. W. - - 24 40 - - - Williams - - 16 27 - - - Rand C. C.

Football From a standpoint of games won. the 1933 football season was not altogether successful, but the experience that some of the underclass men gained will be invaluable in forming a nucleus for the 1934 team. The persistent efforts of Coach Dale F. Ginn were constantly dogged by many injuries and the loss of four regulars. Bob I' agan, Joe Hamilton. Bob Hillis. and Vernon Johnson.

Track 1 rack has shown a steady growth for the past four years, when the Southern Oregon Invitational track and field meet was started. Grants Pass High has finished first or second each year and also second to Klamath F alls in the meet held there. The prospects for the 1934 season are not so good with only three lettermen hack, those being Herman Henrikson, Jimmy Orr, and William 1 aylor. This means a great deal of work on the part of the boys to equal the evenly balanced squad of 1933. This year the team has hopes of winning the meets at Grants Pass on May 5 and at Klamath Falls May 12 if Henrikson, Orr, Taylor, Weber, Bromley, and Burden, who was high point man in the interclass meet, and a few of the Freshmen and Sophomores come through as winners.
