The most thrilling games this season were the double wins over Ben. L. Smith. The team is led by acrobatic Elmer “Crow” Austin, a letterman and MVP for every year he has been at Dudley His best game of the season was against High Point. He scored 31 points and pulled down 14 rebounds to lead everyone in these departments. The surprise star of the year was big Dave Bratcher, a skillful shooter with either hand. He possesses the strength to be a good rebounder and scorer. He is currently scoring at a 14 point clip. The other third of our high scoring front three is Stahle Vincent. A marvelous athlete. He is currently scoring at a 10 point clip but this does not fully describe his contribu¬ tions to the team. He is a great leader and his the ability to bring out the best in his fellow teammates. He is a good passer and a great shooter. Veteran Tacks—Austin and Armstrong I
