6'a4lmfbulL The 1952-53 basketball season was not a successful one for the Little York team. The Eagles won only four scheduled games and lost fifteen. They won third place in the Aledo Invitational Tournament by beating Roosevelt Military Academy and Keiths- burg. They improved their playing as the season progressed, but it was not improved sufficiently to enable them to win. There were twenty boys out for basketball this year: Dean Armstrong, Bill Boock, Dick Clark, Andy Olson, Rondel McVey, Billie Biddle, Harold Kinney, Cleo Stokes, Bob Free, Franklin Campbell, Charles Earp, Jim Booth, Dale Ross, Clyde Goff, Jim Melton, Bill Damewood, Billie Stokes, Terry Lescher, Paul Fredrickson, and Arthur Davies. Of this group six earned a letter: Dean Armstrong Bill Boock Andy Olson Ron- del McVey Dick Clark and Cleo Stokes Bill Boock and Billie Biddle served as co captains of the team this year The Eagles wound up the season in sixth place in the conference by winning over Biggsville and New Boston and losing to Kirkwood Joy Keithsburg Winola and Media Every year the varsltv player with the highest percentage of free throws made has his name engraved on the free throw trophy This vear Cleo Stokes had the highest percentage he made 61 per cent of his shots The Eagles second team was not very successful this year either winning four scheduled games and losing sixteen However there are some promising plavers in the making Track The Eagles are looking forward to a verv successful track season this year We have seventeen boys out for track this year They are Dean Armstrong Dick Clark Robert Darrah Andv Olson Rondel McVey Richard Montgomery Paul Fredrickson Bob Free Noel Grabowski Cleo Stokes Franklin Campbell Lawrence Fredrickson Jim Melton Billie Stokes Clyde Goff Terry Lescher and Arthur Davies Five of these have previously won their letters in track Dean Armstrong Dick Clark Andy Olson Rondel McVay and No l Grabowski Basketball Scores Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Llttle Little Yoi k York York York York York Yoi k York York Yoi k Yol k Keithsbui g G 84 O Alexis Media Biggsville Keithsbuzg o R M A New Boston Kirkwood Keithsbuig, L1ttle Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Little Little FIFTY THREE Yoi k York Yox k York Yoi k X ork York York Yol k You k You k Joy G84 RMA Keithsburg Terre Haute R M A Kirkwood New Boston Biggsville Terre Haute W1nol'1 , , , , ,, , . , , , , . , U , - U , , . , . . . . .
