VARSITY BAS KET- BALL ON THE BASKETBALL COURT The outlook for the varsity basketball team seemed very bright as the winter came around, and from every indication it looked as though the charges of Coach Meyers were in for a successful season. Most of last year's players were back and, in addition, several promising junior varsity players, who showed promise of blossoming forth as top-notch performers for their Alma Mater. This year the team had a schedule which called for seven home games and seven games on the opponents' courts. The initial game was played the first Friday in December with the fourteenth game the last of February. After five games had been played, Coach Meyers changed the per- sonnel of the squad and the first team to face this revamped lineup was Celoron High School. This game on our court resulted in a decisive vic- tory for Celoron. The team from the County Seat wound up its schedule at home with a gala Golden Jubilee Celebration. The proceeds from this game were turned over to the Golden Jubilee Committee at Springfield, Massachusetts, to help erect the Hall of Basketball Fame in honor of Doctor Naismith, the founder of the game in 1891. Results of the games played by MCS follow: Mayville Lakewood 18. Mayville Lakewood 24. Mayville Sherman 24. Mayville Sherman 26. Mayville Frewsburg 11. Mayville Frewsburg 18. Mayville Panama 19.
