PHE PANTHER WAYNE COCHRAN WLeftyHacted as Captain in his senior year and was one of the Hheadiestn members on the team. Al- though never a high scorer he was always con- sistent. ULeftyU usually received the assignment of guarding the Htoughu boys, he was always a consistent trainer and gave all he had when in the game. MAX FOSNAUGH ' Max was one of Petrole- uns most dependable re- serves. He was always ready and played several good games on the first team. He has a fine att- itude, always doing just as he was told. Fosnaugh never flinched from duty, always taking what was dished out to him with a smile, and always kept in good condition. RICHkRD SMITH Smith will be the speed iest boy in the Panther lineup next year. He is only a sophomore and -al- ready has the speed and drive equal to the best. With increased action next year, and a little more work, NRichH just will not be stopped. DLBRLLL FBDNKS Darrell is a brilliant little basketball player, but had quite a lot of misfortune during this year. He was out of the lineup at times due to illness and injuries. He was the flashiest boy on the team, driving through the impossible places for field goals. He clinaxed his career with an over- time shot just as the overtime ended to defeat Chester Center, but had a tough blow the next 'week when he dislocated his shoulder and was forced to give up basketball. H mf FLOYD STEINEB Floyd was a little slow in getting started but when he did he kept going Starting the season on the second team, he was pushed into first-team action before Christmas and there he stayed. He worked right in with the first team and will be the boy around when Coach Ireland builds his team next year. Floyd is left handed and just can not be stopped from hooking those over his head. He is a junior and will be the only senior on the first team next year.

PHE PANT!-IEK ROBERT BBUNSON Bob is one of the best players returning next year. He has played lots of basketball this year. He always is willing to take instruction and al- ways gives all he has. During the next two years with encreased weight and speed, together with an accurate eye for the bas- ket, Brui in vill be a big worry far the opposi- tion next year and nake several baskets. MAX MILLIAHS Max did not get to plfy as much as some of the other members of the tern but was always on hind for any good he night be able to do. He is very willing,and he has a plea sant disposition, eager to do just what is right. ROBERT WILSON Bob should be one of the best ball players around in a few years. He is tall, has played quite a lot, and is only a freshman. Wilson jumped center on the second team this season and always get more thin his share of the tip-airs. He was among the high scorers of the second team, getting 55 points this year. He played in more games than any member of the re- serves, twenty in all. HYBON DAVIS Myron is a freshman who is naking good. Slow at getting started, when given a chance, Myron delivered. He is left- handed and anagged sever- al nice ones over his head. He is a hard player and willing to work. He is the type of player that will really go places and we are expect- iny big things of Myron during the next 5 years. Keep going Hyron. JOHN FHANTZ HJohnnie,U another pro- aising sophomore should develop fast next year. He saw very little action this year but gave a good account of hinself when he was in the jane. We'll see here of John next year. KEITH LEE HFat,H as we call him acted as captain of the reserves this year and did a good job of it. He was always busy on the floor, whether playing or licking his fingers. Lee played in lB games this year and found the basket for 66 points. .He should develop into a fine ball player, as he still has two years to go. He was one of the twelve Coach Ireland certified for the tourney . -1935
