Q . . , ..1 , .v. Q ,,,... Y ,-V . . ..,.. . .... ,' '-1 Y ,e-ef ' ------a.r....,., SETTING for a one'-hander is Duane Hooker '54 Cpictured leftll Duane, who runs at guard post, was recently honored by being selected captain of the 1953-'54 Kiser bucket squad. He was high score man in the season's first two tussles xwith 19 and 21 points against Brookville and Lewisburg, respec- tively. iPhoto by Paul GriHy.J Hooker ls Named Captain Recently named captain of Coach Sid Haller's varsity cage squad was Senior Duane Hooker. Duane, now 5' 11 157 pounds, had his start on the basketball court at McGuffey grade school where he was coached by Roy James. Following his seven years there at McGuf'fey, Duane came to Kiser where he first played eighth and ninth grade ball. After this, in his Sophomore year, he gained a position on the reserve club coached by Bill Stover. He finally became a Hallerman in his 'Junior year when he took the floor among Kiser's top five. It was in that season that he eafned his first basketball letter. Basketball isn't all that Duane takes part in the field of sports. Looking back we find that he has done considerably well on the cinders under the training of Coach Roy Peden, and has merited two letters while holding down the end slot on the Stover eleven. Panthers Drop Three Of Their First Four Games Sid Hal1er's courtster's opened the 1953-54 cage season on a sour note, dropping three out of their first four games, by decisive margins. For the opening tilt, December 4, the Panthers traveled to Brookville, to battle the Blue Lions. But a fellow named Don DeVilbis provgl too much for the Cats as he scored 25 points to lead the Brooks to a 66-59 triumph. Duane Hooker was high man for Kiser with 15. One night later, December 5, Kiser copped its first win with a solid vic- tory over Lewisburg, scalping the Indians 61-44. The Cats were headed only once the whole. game at 12-11, but quickly recovered to win hand- ily. Again, Kiser was paced by team captain Duane Hooker who scored 19 points in this, the Panther's first home game. Kser again took to the road, De- ceinber 9, in search of its second win, but were turned back by a powerful Wilmington team, 72-58. Howie Mil- ler and Bill Worrell shared Kiser's scoring honors with 13 apiece. Kiser lost three starters via the foul route in this roughly played contest, which attributed greatly to the Panther set- back. A week ago, the Cats met sFair- mont on the latter's home court and were dumped for their third loss of the young season, 74-58. Ably coached by Junior Norris, former U. D. basketballer, the Dragons dis- ,played a good fast break and capable ball handling. , With three losses and a win to their credit the Cats battled Wayne here last Tuesday, but results were not known at press tune ai? w.e..-mms:-1:1-:fwe.asa,..arssii.. -:1 'iff ' 352-5r::i:,z.:.-r.,-1--4::....f.f,':ysgg:,, An, -z5:1:r5::..

The cheer, which inci- dentally was heard at Brookville, goes thusly: Naughty Naughty musn't do, That's another foul on you. Behind Bars Or Alumni Cage Team Our own alumni cage team from Mad River, called Pleasant Valley Reform Church in the Class A league, lost their first game 73 to 11. Players are: Ray Hill '53, Jack Shade '53, On- vey Smith '53, Dave Wilhite '56, and Bob Carry Out Gray '54. Everything in Sports Equipment J im Flynn, Inc.

HE 2884 Dayton, Ohio Cats Meet Troyrnen Tonightg Invade Indianlaghd' Tuesday' Kiser's Panthers may have to take a page from Greek history when they travel north to encounter the Trojans of Troy. ,For the last four years this year's Senior class members have never won a game on their floor. Al- though they won't have the wooden horse, the Cats are primed with sur- prises. Last year Troy outscored Kiser 57 to 37. At press time Troy was unbeaten and going strong. They don't have any single star so every- one will have to watch his man. Panthers Invade Indian Land Tuesday night the Panthers travel north again, but 10 miles farther to Piqua. Being on the war path the Indians will be out to get the scalps of the Panthers for the 49-48 loss handed them when Bucky Staggs made a last minute field goal to cinch the game. Piqua's record is not too impressive having a 1-4 record up to Dec. 11. As in Troy's case the Indians have no stand-out stars. Beavers Make Debut Playing Class A basketball for the pace. first year the Beavers of-Beavercreek have had a successful season. 'They had a four game winning streak going before encountering the Charninade Eagles losing a tight 1 point defeat' Beavercreek makes their first ap- pearance on the Kiser schedule. The tilt will be played on the home court next xWednesday. l Cats Encounter Co-op On January 7, the Panthers open their league play against Patterson at the coliseum. The Beavers were un- beaten and should give the Panthers a rough night. Unlike Troy and Piqua, Co-op has one man who will have to be watched like a hawk. He is Tom Vermillion, the Beaver's scrappy 'little guard. ' Kiser Has Standouts The Panthers themselves have been paced by John Salty Guffey and Duane Hooker who have been putting the ball through the net at a regular X . Phys Ed Dept. Receives Trampoline' Girl's gym classes have been changed lately as a result of a new trampoline which was given to the Kiser physical education department by the Dayton Board of Education. So far only girls have had a fiing on the trampoline. Miss Isabel Shep- ler, girl's gym teacher, who has been teaching her girls how to use the trampoline, says safety is being stressed to prevent accidents. No one is allowed to work out on the trampo- line without a teacher being present. Frank Stall '56, is Kiser's best per- former on the trampoline. He has been going to the Y.M.C.A. for phys- ical training and has leamed how to turn flips, twists, and other tricks of the trade. The trampoline is a good way to lose unwanted weight, accord- ing to Frank. ' BOUNCING OFF the canvas on his stomach Cabovej is Frank Stall '56. This is one of the many tricks he accomplishes on the trampoline. iPhoto by Toby Orrj. ' i ' 4' 'lx' I 9 Ice cream H l S Soft drinks I Sandwiches Troy Q L60 SIS.

The rising number of delinquent cases poses a great problem for the judiciary and society in general. Why this increase? Recently, Judge Frank Nicholas of the Dayton Juven- ile Court, supplied some answers to this question. Three Classes Exist Juvenile offenders are generally divided into three classes: delin- quent, dependent and neglected. The first of these types commits offenses for pleasure or for no reason at all. In this class the child takes his first step toward becoming a habitual criminal. Dependent delinquents are chil- dren of parents who are generally nearly financially destitute. These parents cannot take care of their children. Consequently, the children un-is nn--. tFl'E'1V5'ER PRESENTING JOAN BREWER with the 1952 Annual Report on juvenile delinquency is Judge Frank Nicholas of the Dayton Juvenile Court.

An enrollment fee of SQ cents is necessary to defray expenses in- curred in the distribution and scoring of the test and making and sending of the numerous reports to schools and colleges. The test will be objective and cov- ers essentials of the high school aca- demic course of study. There are fivesubject groups: English, history, mathematics, science and reading. Each subject is allotted 60 points, making 300 points for the test. Every contestant will be required ,to take all five subjects. There are approximately 16 Sen- iors from Kiser who will take the tests. Kiser Is 1st n New TV Show The first of a series of TV Educa- tional Shows will feature the Kiser music department, February 4, over station WIFE-TV.

Prematurely forced into making de- cisions, these boys and girls often turn to the wrong methods of satis- fying their wants. - Parents are most, responsible for the third of this group--the neg- lected. These children have been cast aside 'by parents who donjt take a sufficient interest in them because they have been busy working and lose personal contact with them. Then the young people, not being in reach of parential discipline, often tum to seek thrills which bring them abreast of the law. A Delinquent Offenders Predominate Of the types already mentioned the delinquent offenders are by far the most numerous and of this group the boys exceed the girls five to one. Of the neglected and dependent delin- quents the ratio is about one to one. The largest nuinber of offenseshare traffic violations with 588 cases re- ported, general stealing coming sec- ond with 205, and auto thefts falling third with 160. U Teachers Can Help Aside from the lack of parential discipline some of the blame must be placed on school teachers. Teach- ers who set good examples and gain the respect of their students can ex-' pect to have a favorable influence on their students. Only through the education of parents and children alike can we rid our' society of delinquency, says Judge Nicholas. Satisfactory recreational facilities must be provided and energies di- verted into constructive channels. Juvenile Center Rejected Twice Montgomery County voters have rejected proposals to .erect a new Juvenile Center. This is unfortu- nate since Montgomery County has done nothing since 1928 to provide more or better detention care for de- linquents and since 1938 has afforded no additional space for Juvenile Court operations. t . A few of- the problems resulting from this are: the jailing of some delinquents because of the lack of Detention Home space, within' the Detention Home itself there is no adequate medical program and iso- lation facilities, there is insufficient space for sleeping, eating, and activi- ties for children. However, the Detention Home does owe much to various individuals which have offered their support. It is through such help that they have been able to provide the boys and girls with such things as Red Cross classes, religious' services, and special art instruction! North Dayton Improved At one time North Dayton's juven- ile ' delinquent rate ,was high but Judge Nicholas was glad to report that now the number has been greatly reduced. , - A Most adults feel this younger gen- eration is 'going to the dogs.', How- ever, I feel that this generation is no worse than the preceding one. Never- theless, we must do our part in help- ing to 'STOP'juveni1e delinquency, Judge Nicholas concluded., 1 ' -to . .. ...-...-.. ...-,,.. .T .-.U ,L . ,,,,,,,,,v, ,Y ,gig-i,-,,v,Ki,,lh,V A.
