BASKETBALL Oratory won 13 out of 21 games this basketball season, The games were all exciting and worth watch- ing. The Ivy League contest was close throughout the year, and the league championship wasnlt decided until the last few games. Montclair Academy took .the trophy this year, but it looks as if the Rams could take it over in 1954. Team captain Frank Carine led in scoring with 492 points. He liked to drive in, but also hit frequently on push shots from the outside. Frank made the All County List this year. Co-captain of this year's ORATORY 63- The Rams played host to St. Bernard's of Peapack and won an easy 63-48 victory.
