As the boys gained experience, they improved very rapidly, and teams with which they competed always re- alized that they must play good basketball to win. Captain Jack Bergin led our offensive, and was outstanding with his consistently good floor play. Next year, the team should be excellent, with several veterans returning, and some pro- mising material coming forward. The team this rear was conposed of the following boys: Joe Sestito Kenneth Purdy George Dygert Thomas Dutcher Gerald Eysaman Frederick Dutcher Harold Myers Claude Marlneau Jack Bergin ICaptainJ Douglas Monroe The schedule for the season was: O onent The We Uoggevflle 22 31' Frankfort 40 35-- St. Johnsville 32 18- Herkimer 61 16-' Ilion 25 17- West Canada 30 25' Fort Plain so 25- Canajoharie 25 26 Dolgeville 25 28 Herkimer 25 23- St. Johnsville 23 24 Fort Plain 51 18- West Canada 34 36 Canajoharie 22 25 Illon 26 28 Frankfort 45 16...
