BASKETBALL As the Red and Blue roared out onto the hardwood this season, a familiar face was miss- ing and a new one was there to take its place. Coach Phil Hubbard, an Academy veteran for 15 years, was replaced by Coach Sam Deeb of Ithaca. Although almost everyone thought Coach Hubbard could not be replaced, Mr. Deeb has demonstrated wonderful leadership. Towanda was the Hrst to attack the Indians this winter. W'e tasted our first defeat by the meager margin of one point in a thrilling over- time. It was the same story in the return tilt. Athens was thrown for a loss as the Indians began their rampage, as they ran over them in both games. Waverly, Horseheads, and Wat- kins Glen proved easy opponents for they were warped both games by anywhere from two to thirty-three points. Elmira Heights, sparked on by the much experienced veteran of the hardwood, Belknap, walked away with both games. They 'gcappedn the pennant for this year. With the defeat of Newark Valley by the YVolverines, the Owego five was left in undis- THE SCORE Owego Visitors 51 .... 52 Towanda 43 .... 44 Homer 35 .... 44 Athens 38 .... 39 Towanda 36 .... 41 Homer 36 .... 25 Waverly 27 .... 43 Elmira Heights 35 .... 20 Horseheads 43 .... 28 Athens 73 .... 39 Watkins Glen 46 .... 50 Newark Valley 43 .... 41 Waverly 37 .... 38 Elmira Heights 50 .... 36 Horseheads 72 .... 39 Watkins Glen 41 .... 49 Newark Valley 72 .... 35 Watkins Glen 42 .... 47 Elmira Free Academy puted possession of second place, with of course, Elmira Heights up in front. Coach Deeb has a very promising team com- ing up for next year. The J.V.'s steamed through the season with fifteen easy wins and only two close losses. The fast breaks of Jim Elam and the sure eye of Pete Van de Mark spurred the younguns on for a glorious sea- son. Ralph Bennett leads the O.F.A. sharpshoot- ers with 188 points to his credit. Holding sec- ond honors is Floyd Kwiatkowski with 167 points. I'l'07lf Row, I.. lo l?.fR. 1'll'lllll'lI, F. Kwizltkowski, R. Black, R. Cornish, IV, Kuhns, C. Wlolfe, D. Schmitt, I,. Knickerbocker.

TOM TOM STAFF This year, as in years before, the members of the Tom Tom Staff have worked very hard to make their Tom Tom a success. They have endeavored to place before you a picture of the many activities taking place in the Owego Free Academy. A great deal of this work can be credited to Mr. Ellis, our art teacher. Through his steady efforts, the designing, photographic, and production problems were ironed out. Our commercial teacher, lN1rs. Ellis, took care of all typing problems, kept the records for the sales and advertising stafTs, and with the aid of Miss Hamilton, solved many other problems. These teachers deserve the sincere thanks of all the students. There were many pupils, also, who put :1 great deal of effort towards making an outstanding yearbook. Among them is Floyd Kwiatkowski, editor-in-chief, upon whose capable shoulders fell many of the details of the book. Gerald Shrauger, business manager, directed the ad- vertising for the 'POM TOM. Paul Gurney and John Hartman directed the photographic angle. These are just a few of the large group of students who make up the Tom Tom Staff. I-mul lime. I. In lt.f.X. Scterson. ll, liallon. CL.
