we 3 16 ' 'rim M. P. H. s. 'rxrrnmn Miles Rukgaber, guard, is a man whose endurance and team work were remarkable. Few and far between were the baskets his opponent got from Miles. He is a clean, hard player and played a steady, consistent game. Buck, Joy, Yocum and Thomas were the efficient subs who could be depended upon to go into the game at any time and play an excellent game. Their loyal and con- sistent support of the first team had much to do with this season's success. This year's team consists with two exceptions of Seniors but there is plenty of good material left in Mt. Pleasant High School and We may look forward to another cham- pionship year. -.1- .....

'rum lu. P. H. s. TATTLER 15 ATHLETICS. P1917-1918 Basket Ball.. ' For two years in succession Mt. Pleasant High School has walked off with the Iowa State Championship, showing our brilliant-playing quintette second to none in the state. The team last two of last year's players, Beans Thomas and Ike Harshbarger but Skimmer Miller and Miles Rukga- ber quite madeup the loss. The boys were handicapped by the loss of coaches Karlstrom and Melcher and were for a time without a coach. Near the close of the season, Mr. Wormhondt of Ottumwa was secured and a good deal of the success was due to his capable coaching. The past season will be long remembered in Mt. Pleasant and especially by those who witnessedsome of the thrilling games, such as the one with Iowa City. ' ' Pinkie Green, captain, is the fastest forwardin the state. He is our star. player and was elected all-state cap- tain. His fast dribbling and accurate basket shooting brought Mt. Pleasant many points. His graceful figure darting swiftly for the goal never failed to thrill the crowd. Pink is the kind of Vfellowqwho can put snap and pep into his men and do consistent team work as well as brilliant ine dividual playing. His future will be watched with interest by all basket ball enthusiasts. . ' ' I . Don Harshbarger, forward, did some splendid work and the guard who followed him around knew he had been in the game when Dod was through with him. His ability for long shots is very unusual. Don.has played on the team for three seasons and still has one season to continue his brilliant playing. I p ' At guard we find Leonard Stromberg, the man with a smile that wo-n't come off. Strommy is noted for his close guarding, his speed on the floor and his unfailing good nature. He s always on Web and rea-dy to whirl the ball back Ae of our forwi s when it came down to his end of the fioor. The fact. that he made the state team proves his worth. ' , . Skimmer Miller, center, broke into the limelight this year and proved himself there with the goods. Skimmer's main feat was to get his man's goat and then get him. Skimmer has anotheryear to fight for Mt. Pleasant High School and great things are expected of him. S
