Charles Kottlowski, George Gunn, Ed Tieteman, Clyde Faut, Roy Faut, Junior Mattingly On Saturday afternoon, March S, the 1937-38 basketball season was brought to a close when the New Palestine Dragons were defeated by Wilkinson in the semi-final round of the local sectional. This was the final game for five senior boys who have played on the first team throughout most of the basketball season. During the season the team won nine and lost twelve gamesg two of these games were lost in overtimes to Mt. Comfort and Beech Grove, and the Hnal game of the season was lost to Morristown, the Shelby county-cham- pions, by a score of 31-30. A few of the outstanding feats of the season were the defeating of two county-champions, Whiteland, Johnson county-champs and Fortville, Hancock county-champs. Defeating Fortville by a score of 32 to 17 gave us the Hancock County Dope Bucket which we retained for the remainder of the basketball season. W. Lantz was selected for the ALL-COUNTY basketball team. The first ten for the year were Max Hendryx, center, Wilbur Lantz, forward, George Faut, guardg Charles Kottlowski, forward, Bob Waltz, forward, Raymond Ostermeier, guard, Bill Woods, guard, Don Lantz, guard, Ezra Wooten, centerg Dale Kracht, forward, and Bill Ulrey, guard. The regulars throughout most of the season consisted of Wilbur Lantz, Max Hendryx, Bob Waltz, George Faut, Raymond Ostermeier and Don Lantz. The following senior boys received sweater awards for the 1937-38 basketball season: George Faut, Max Hendryx, Wilbur Lantz, Bob Waltz and Don Lantz. The New Palestine second team won six and lost twelve games this year. Although their record was none too good, it was developing the following players into future basketball stars for New Palestine High School: Harold Breece, Bill Ulrey, Ezra Wooten, Dale Kracht. and Harold Brune. Donzel Bundy received a coat sweater for his services as student manager. James Walker retires from his four year reign as yell leader. He has served his alma mater very faithfully during the years that he has led yells for the Dragons. The prospects for the coming years are fair. Next year there will be only one senior on the team, but the following year should produce a very strong and unbeatable combination. It so happens that the squad is blessed with eight sophomores who look wry promising. NEW PALESTINE BASKETBALL SCHEDULE 1937-3 8 f lsr Team N. P. H. S. Opponenlx N. P. H. S.

fha. maya Teachers: Miss Margaret Williamson, Miss Jensey Boles Anderson. Thirty-seven sweet bewildered little youngsters timidly entered the halls of New Pales- tine School, to begin their long trek to graduation. Peggy Snyder shed bucketfuls of tears each day. Big brother Eddie came from the high school to console her. William kissed Betty Lou in return for a bite of apple. Dale constantly feared something dreadful was about to overtake him. Don lost a goodly portion of his hair for whispering and eating candy. Our parents visited too often for our comfort. 1927-28 Second Grade: Teachers: Miss Ethel Jordan, Miss jensey Boles Anderson. We visited Miss jordan who was at home, ill. Jimmy's love ran wild. Olive and Peggy quarreled daily. Miss Jordan's shadows, Mary Louise and Mabel, were literally tied to Miss Jordan's apron strings and forced to follow her everywhere she went. Betty Lou insisted on sitting on her desk. 1928-29 Third Grade: Teachers: Miss Gladys Swain, Miss jensey Boles Anderson. We marched in the Hancock County Centennial Parade. Olive and Peggy staged a fight before the music class. When our teacher returned after an afternoon away, she found paper wads piled a foot high in the corners. For the rest of the week we spent our recess periods writing over and over again, I shall not throw paper wads any more. Mabel was stubborn in art class and drew a cat instead of a tree. She then was privileged to dis- play her artistic ability at the blackboard. Jimmy was sent to the first grade room because he talked L out loud. 0561 Wilbur became a crack paper rQkd0wf, scenfry wad shooter. 1926-27 First Grade:
