THE ECHO 27 BOYS ' BASKETBALL 1 ' he basketball season opened on January 5 at Weymouth. With no former let- ter men back, a new and inexperienced team took the floor. It was evident that experience is a deciding factor. Throughout the season the scorers were Mack, Murdock, Eddy, Megley, and George, who was easily the high scorer. Though the team didn’t win many of its games, we know they all fought bravely, tried earnestly, and lost victoriously. Congratulations to all. THE TEAM Position 1st Team 2nd Team Right Guard P.
