Men ' s Basketball Team Even in wartime the fine and splendid play of the men ' s basketball team retained its excellent quality, a tribute to the interest of the students and coaching ability of Prof Gorton. Ably assisted by H. Rogers Muse, manager and Percy Clifton, assistant manager, the team played a schedule of exciting games and won the recognition of being the best team in the state of New Jersey. A larger registration in September and February brought some good high school players to Panzer. Herb Krautblatt, captain of the team and his able team- mates have demonstrated a fine quality of basketball. The team was composed of Albert Cohen, Frank Proietti, Bill Hafer, Louis Peragallo, Harold Lefkowitz, Renard Rossi, James Walling, and Robert Anderson. The basketball team won fourteen out of fifteen scheduled games in the following schedule: Panzer 50 Wagner College 20 Home Panzer 81 New Britain State Teachers College of Connecticut 38 Home Panzer 78 Newark University 52 Home Panzer 55 Montclair State Teachers College 38 Away Panzer 50 Rider College 41 Away Panzer 38 City College of New York 41 Away Panzer 51 Newark University 37 Away Panzer 67 Webb Institute 39 Home Panzer 54 Cortland State Teachers College of New York 44 Awav Panzer 54 Ithaca College 49 Away Panzer 48 Drew University 36 Home Panzer 88 Haverford College 42 Home Panzer 51 Wayne College 48 Away Panzer 54 Drew University 27 Away

The Women ' s Basketball Team Coached this year by our new athletic director, Mrs. Elizabeth Beach, the team opened the basketball season by defeating the alumni with a score of 24 to 14. Rider was next on the schedule and they, too, fell to the strong Panzer team. Although a week later, Hunter proved to be a better team when scores were totaled it only served to spur the team on to do a long unheard of thing — beat East Stroudsberg Teachers College. A very close game was played against Wagner but again the Panzerettes came out on top. From the senior class Berenice Muncy, Kay Schaeffer and Jean Nunnink played in the forward positions and Eunice Eilau and Marion Wessels excelled as guards. Under the capable managership of Selma Rosenstock the team this vear also played Immaculata in Pennsylvania and New York University.
