BASKETBALL Shoot 'em high! Guard 'em low! Yea team! Let's go! This might well have been the motto of the 1939-40 O. H. S. Varsity team as they completed one of the most successful seasons in recent years. O. H. S. played 17 scheduled games, winning 9 of them. The boys got off to a poor start but came back from Christmas vacation all pepped up and won all but two games, one being lost by only one point. In the County Tourney we lost to Decatur Central and in the Sectional we lost a hard- fought game to Warren Central. The team consisted of boys from all four high school classes. Capt. Watson, Frazer, and H. Apple proved very efficient in the offensive, while Negley and Hay held down the guardposts in grand style. Each of the four Senior boys received his sweater for his splendid service to the team. A letter was given to Harold Apple for having played varsity basketball two years. Our Reserve Team won six games out of fifteen hard-fought battles. They really put up a gallant fight and deserve much praise for good sports- manship. Even though we are bidding goodbye to four senior basketball players this year, we feel sure our reserve team will carry on next year. Three cheers are given Coach Bruce for his able work, and also to Student Manager Jack Parker.

Practically all the boys in high school participated and came through with flying colors. We played six games and won four of them. The other two were lost by just one point. The boys played their first night baseball game against the Alumni at the Fortville Ball Park. They proved they could play a good game, day or night, as we won 5 to 4. Page eighteen
