JUNIOR VARSITY PLAYS ENTHUSIASTICALLY The new eleventh graders proved to be an asset to the Junior Varsity Basketball team. Facing many aggressive opponents, the Tigers outmatched them in splendor. They won a grand total of fourteen basketball games played. Long and hard practicing for the Junior Tigers helped them flee the games as victors. Coach Barnes was of great value to the team. He led them through the zealous practice sessions, on up through the tense minutes before the game was over. Gordon Johnson makes a shot for two points, while Freddie Fluker and Elijah Hogue guard him. Kneeling, Left to Right: Alynwood Alexander, Bobby Shaw, Coach Barnes, Elijah Hogue, and Alton Campbell. Standing, I. to r.: Freddie Fluker. Donald Jones, Terry Hutley, Willie Reed, John Moten, and Calvin Pendleton. 82
