Standing: Coach Highfield, Barry, BHSHET Bllll During the i943-44 basketball season, another spirited Red and Blue club took the floor and played a hard, fair game, which is always characteristic of J. l-l, S. teams. The boys, under the leadership of Coach John l-lighfield, again upheld another Jenkintown custom, that of winning the Bux-lvlont League Championship. For the fourth time in six years the Red and Blue ended the season in first place, adding another brilliant chapter to the court squads' history. The complete season's record showed i5 wins against four losses, one of the defeats being the heartbreaking 40-39 loss to Radnor l-ligh School in the district playoffs. l-lowever, besides the team honors there were several individual accomplish- ments which will be remembered for a long time, Foremost among these are the bril- liant scoring records established by the team Captain, Paul Cutright, Paul, one of the greatest players ever to play at J. l-l. S., made 42 points in a game with-Doyles- town and finished the season with 256 points for two new highs in league record- books. This tall Drake, in addition, was the league coaches' choice for Captain of the Bux-Mont league team. Also receiving league recognition were Paul Fitzgerald and Tom Barry. We shall all look back upon . . . The quiet, inspiring ways of Coach Highfield . . . The great men of '-44: Cutright, Fitzgerald, Holmes, Regan, Fleming, Doyle, and Poley . . . Those coming champs: Barry, Farrow, l-luhn, Don l-lolmes, and Carnahan . . . and the flashy, but hopeful Sophs . . . Last, but not least, we offer a prayer for next year's team, to be led by Tommy Barry. Forty-two
