The Bronchos closed the season with a record of 19 victories and 5 defeats, They also won the Big Four tourney at Lebanon with the utmost ease. Other teams jeff defeated were: W'est Side Qironic- ally enough our sectional champsj, Kokomo, Rich- mond, Crawfordsville, and Greencastle. And if you can find four other teams as good as Logansport, Anderson, Tech of Indianapolis, and Newcastle, the four eonquerors of jeff during the oilicial season, you'll have to look somewhere else than in this Hoosier State.

'34 'l A TEAM lst row-Ll. Bogan, M. Crowe, Ed. Korty, E. Crowe 2nd row-C. W'eedon. R. Vyverberg, A. Boone, C. Newton, T. Dickinson 3rd row-L. Apple, A. Miller, C. Klein, D. Martin non's Tigers Sl-21, naturally all signs pointed for Jeff's greatest little team in thirteen years to go to the State for the first time in the said thirteen years. Another item in victory calculations was that Jeff had also defeated Frankfort at Howard Hall. Need we say more? Then came the sectional! Oh, somewhere in this favored land, thc sun was shining bright. The band was playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts were light. And somewhere men were laughing, and you could hear the children shout- But there was no joy in our town-for jefferson lost out. That game with Battle Ground in the second game of the Sectional was a nightmare. Those eight shots ruined jeff completely, and the Grounders won, 30-16. But the way those boys of Joy Anderson were playing, it would have taken more than any other team in the state to beat them. Not even Logan or Tech had played the way they did. Still, the realization of this did not help the feelings of Masters and his boys. Yet in spite of their woe, Lafayette was proud at least to know that other cities fnotably Leba- non and West Sidej felt that those Jefferson boys and their coaches were good sportsf' Next year's team will miss Captain Mike Crowe, Korty, Bogan, and Miller, but it is hoped that Dickinson, Newton, E. Crowe, Martin, Weedon, and Vyverberg will be able to assauge their grief. HIGHLIGHTS CF THE SEASON Won 19-lost 5. Ranked high in the Big Ten. Crowe and Dickinson leading scorers of Big Ten. Newton and Crowe chosen all-conference. Broke Frankfort and Logansport jinx. Won Big Four tourney. .Virirty-vigil!
