One of the most outstanding games oi the season was the upset, 63-42, drubbing handed to the highly rated Kalamazoo team. Perhaps even more important was the victory over Ann Arbor in an exciting overtime game since this assured Iackson of a tie tor third place in the Five A League. Even though the team lost to Dearborn Fordson in the quarter finals We know that the combination oi team play, together with the spirit to win, changed a discouraging beginning into a great late sea- son rush. Our hats are oft to Mr. Ogden and the entire squad who gave everything they had to make this victorious ending possible.
