THE 1943 BULLDOG THE LAPEL BULLDOGS 1942-1943 The 1942-43 edition of the Lapel High School basketball team proved to be one of the best teams we have ever had. We faced perhaps the most difficult schedules ever drawn up for a Lapel team. Some of the outstanding aggrega- tions that we met were Batesville, Greenfield, Wiley, Bloomington, and Greentown. We did not win all our games but we made a showing worthy of praise. Although the Bulldogs didn't start off in high gear, they captured the Pendleton 'Invitational Tourney for the first time. They entered the Sectional with 9 wins and the same number of losses, but they advanced to the finals where they defeated Markleville, 35 to 27, to help themselves to another Sectional crown. In the Regional they gained the finals by defeating Plainfield, but were defeated by a tough Greenfield outfit. Although Coach Armstrong loses four boys by graduation, next year's team has the material to go places. THE BO'WLlNG ALLEY Although a privately owned concern, they have been very cooperative with the government physical fitnes proqrain of the school. The program requires a competitive sport and bowl- inq was chosen' by the members of the classes. The addition of this indoor recreation is enjoyed by old and younq alike.
