BASKETBALL This year's Leavenworth team was like all the others, they had plenty of fight and spirit, though only winning three games. Many of the others were very close and not decided till the closing minutes. The outline for the new year, however, is very bright as the boys will have the much needed experience which they lacked this season. Not one of the first eight men will graduate. This year Leavenworth placed two on the second all-city team. They are Art Harrison, a freshman, and john Faraci, a soph- omore. The most important person, however, was Mr. Donato, our coach. He is known to have a way with all his ball players, and win or lose, the boys play very hard for the Ripper . We hope that Tech, instead of the Air Force, will have him next year.
