Parisian Review of Basketball Season of 1921-1922 Last year’s team was thought by many to be the best that Coach Turner had produced in many years. The team made an enviable record, having won nineteen out of the twenty-nine games played. They also made a very good showing at both the county and state tournaments. They went to the finals in the county tournament and finally lost to Westville. At the state tournament they won their first two games and met their defeat at the hands of the fast Greenfield quintet. The team was composed of the following players: Crouse, L. F. Steinberger, R. F. Ross, C. Reed, L. G. Foster, R. G. Barger and Harter, subs.

 Parisian 1923 Basketball 1922-1923 Under the guidance of Mr. Turner and Mr. Carl, the Johnson St. Paris High School bas- ketball team finished a very successful sea- son. This year’s schedule included some of the best teams from this and the surrounding counties. Out of the fifteen games played, the team won nine and lost six. They were not defeated on the home floor. The team attended the county tourna- ment at Urbana on February 10, and “hooked up” with the fast Urbana Town- ship bunch. The night before, the team had played Urbana City H. S. This was the best an ! hardest-fought game of the season, and probably accounts for the poor showing made against Urbana Township. Anyway, we were defeated by a score of 33 to 17. Mr. Turner and Mr. Carl deserve a lot of praise for the faithful way in which they have stuck by the team. Never a night passed but one of them was there to help the team in practice. The team has ever been noted for their true sportsmanship and friendliness, shown not only among themselves, but tovcards their opponents. The team has also been successful finan- cially since they installed seats in the gym- nasium and helped to put in the showers. The loyalty and support of the students of the school, and of the people of the com- munity has been extended whole-heartedly to the team. This spirit of friendliness and cooperation is truly appreciated by the team and coach.

P. H. S. The pupils of the school and the people of the community are becoming more inter- ested in high school baseball than in former years. The Recreation Association comes in for a vote of thanks for the way in which they helped the team last year. They spent their time and money in improving the dia- mond and making it a fit place for holding contests. Although the teams in recent years have not seemed to be able to “hook up” with very many victories, they are improving rapidly, since the team of 1922 won five games and lost only two. Some of the teams played were Business Men, Jackson Township, and Rosewood. It is predicted that in the future, the Johnson-St. Paris Baseball Team, under the guidance of Mr. Turner and Mr. Carl, will be listed among the shining lights in base- ball fame.
