Reed O at-.emo Even though the won and lost record of our Kentland Blue Devils was not impressive, the team was by far not a poor one. The team won only one while they lost 17. The squad showed fight throughout the entire season, but just lacked the fi11al punch during the closing minutes in many games. The scoring through- out the year was well balanced with the boys finishing in the following order: Flinn, Limp, Hensley and Newland ltiedj, Walke1', Hougland, Henderson, Beatty, Parr and Mullen Ltiedj, Sell, and Dennis. The Blue Devils opened at Mt. Ayr Where they got off on thc wrong foot, and couldn7t get going through the months of November, December, and January, but on February the first they traveled back to Mt. Ayr and trounced the Airdales 37-25. Then again the team was in a rut and lost four more straight. ln the Sectional, Kentland drew Wlieatheld for their first round opponent. The big floor seemed to baffle Wheatfielcfs charges, and our Blue Devils jumped to a first period lead of 17 to 1. But then Wlieatheld braced like champions to come back and win 34-25 in the closing minutes. Wlteat- field later lost the final game to Rensselaer by a 48-25 score. The chances of a good season next year are fair as we lose only five boys. Those who have left our ranks to seek new glory are John Flinn fCaptain elect J, Tom Limp, Howard Hensley, John Newland, and John Parr. The Letter Winne1's this year are: John Flinn, Tom Limp, Howard Hensley, John Newland, John Parr, Bill Walke1', Marvin Hougland, Melvin Henderson, John Dennis, Stewart Beatty, and Bob Sell, all of whom will he returning except for the previous mentioned boys who will graduate this May. Of those who graduate, four plan to go to college. At Indiana State Teachers College you can find Flinn and Hensley, while Limp plans to attend Saint Joseph College at Rensselaer, and John Parr plans to attend Ball State Teachers College.
