f dntets Took Title; Varsity Played in CIF Vs Gained Skills Cagers of KHS proved that inexperience and newness did not hamper the ball handling, re- bounding and shooting skills of these underclass- men. When the nun-league games ended, pros- pects for a winning season were hopeful. Seven gallant knights dominating the hoopster season tallied a season total of 20 wins and 5 losses. Such improvement in thes - players made the league title of Orange League Champs fit their skills and long working sessions. Knights who played in the backcourt of mar- vels were Larry Nelson. Bob Sherwin. Jerry Tap- lin. Rich Chase. Jim Laube. Don Howells and John Leikauf. Being of great value to the team was Larry Nelson who scored an average of 14 points per game and Bob Sherwin, one of the top defensive players. Under the benchside coaching of Coach Dan- lev, the cagers showed spectators a series of class games, with the Knights coming ahead greater as season progressed. Next step for cagers was CIF playoffs. JUNIOR tSITY: FIRST ROW: R. Ward, D. Browne, D I . dford. M. Bren- ner, L. Sou g. SECOND ROW: L. Barfus, D. Maus. K. Mai hall, C. Gray, Q. Little.

Katella ' s Bee football team produced many new prospects for varsity football in 1967. Although they had a four win. four loss season, it gave the fledglings much valuable experience. Under the su- pervision of Coach Noel Sweeney, they showed natural athletic abilities. Showing great ability in the backfield was fullback Gary Hemishin and quarterback Jim Laube. For Cee football season outcome was not as glorious. Playing a no win record made team effort and morale high. With the coaching of Grover Nutt, the boys worked diligently through the duration of the season. CEE FOOTBALL, BOTTOM ROW M Rodorte, D fohnnii ! .
