WITH THE HOOPSTERS 'Enjoying more success than any of the teams, the basketball squad is deserving of all the praise it has received, and more. With only four men from last year's team returning, Coach Larry Cicero's hard work had some fine results. The first engagement, with the Alumni, resulted in a 29-25 victory for the boys. That's starting off on the right foot. By way of keeping their record clean, the Spirits next submerged Woodbine High Chomej by a 32 to 6 count. The first defeat was not far away, however. Uponjourneying to Egg Harbor they were placed on the short end of a 26-16 score. This smirch on their record only goaded the home boys on, however, and the next game with Gloucester was more successful. A real hair-raiser, the regulation game ended in a 19-19 deadlock. An overtime period only thickened matters when each team came through with two points. A sudden death period was tirminated by a field goal which resulted from some fine team work. Final: Z3-21 four favor, o course . Still riding the crest, the boys next met and downed Hammonton High Chomeb, 23 to ll. From here the season looks good. The traveling jinx again struck when the team went to Pleasantville. Leading by 5 points going into the last period, they lost out because of a splurge which put Pleasantville ahead and resulted in a 32-28 defeat. The next game was with the soldier boys from Fort Dix fhomej. Another close game, and again the Spirits showed their mettle by a 22 to 18 victory. Tuckerton High was the next opponent fawayl, and they succeeded in placing the Blue and Gold on the skids with a 32-29 tally. Wildwood High was next and plastered us with a 39-29 defeat. Things went from bad to worse. The Y. M. C. A. Rainbows made three straight losses with a 27-19 score The final defeat in this unhappy stretch was inflicted by Egg Harbor, who swept their Series with us by a 29 to 27 total. The team finally came out of the tail-spin with a 30-26 triumph over Gloucester High, who proved an easier mark than earlier in the season fhomeb. The Alumni made it even by taking an overtime decision, 30-29, and the Rainbows upheld their mastery by planting a 33-20 beating on our pride and joy. Tiring of losses, the boys decided to go on a winning streak and started with a 37-22 victory over Sacred Heart High fawayj. Overtime periods seemed the craze this year, so in the very next game the team went to this extreme in settling matters with Pleasantville High to the tune of 33-28 fhomel. Still on the winning side, the locals went on a spree and scuttled Hammonton High, 46-31, to keep their record against that team clean. ' The final game of the season, against Sacred Heart, closed the schedule in the correct manner. This game topped a four-game winning streak, and brought the seasonal total to ll wins and 8 losses. The score, 38-28. Outstanding on this year's squad was a small pack of dynamite, Frank fRatterJ Reed. His feat of scoring 24 points in the second game against Hammonton High stands out as the high- light of the season. Running close behind were Frankie Brosky's after-the-game-foul-shot, which tied the score in the second game with Pleasantville, and Yohnny Brown's extra period field goal, which defeated Gloucester the first time. Constant stars on this season's aggregation were Joe Mullen, Duke Dwyer and George Wolf. They were ably supported by Seniors Jack Sankey, Sonney O'Keefe and Larry Flannelly. Two Juniors also contributed in the victories, the aforementioned Brown and Bill Daily. As he is only a sophomore, Frank Brosky will make opponents of Holy Spirit conscious of his presence for a couple of years.
