CHARLES GARLITZ made the All-Tournament team at Big Lake by playing a magnificent game against San Angelo. He was just a Sophomore, opponents look Out in the next two years. VIRGIL, MACHADO Four point Virgil could always be depend- ed on to get four points or more. Virgil is a Senior and his graduation will be a loss to the squad. SCOTT HICKMAN had toughluck this year. He missed two tournaments and four games because of ill- ness, but when he played he ate the opposing team up with his left-hand jump shot and his rebounding. WAYNE KUYKENDALL. another eye who could shoot from any place and hold his own against anybody under any conditions. Wayne is a Junior, and should be one of the most valuable men on the squad next year. WILBURN CONKLIN started a little late, but toward the end of the season he had developed a terrific one-hand jump shot Wilburn is also a Junior, and should show much improvement next year.
