Freshmen Win Interclass Basket Ball Tourney S is the custom, the high school had an inter-class basket ball tour- nament this year. lt was held March 25, 26, 27. The games were scheduled as follows: Monday, senior-sophomore, freshmen-jun- ior: Tuesday, junior-senior, freshmen-sophomore3 XVednesday, sen- ior-freshmen, junior-sophomore games. Don Baker was referee, while Mr. Stuart acted as scorer and time-keper. On Monday night, the freshmen five started out determined to win. They succeeded, with the help of a large majority of the class rooting for them, the score being 31 to 18. The senior-sophomore game the same night resulted in a victory for the older boys, with a score of 9 to 5. The juniors and seniors played the first game of Tuesday night. Here, as before, the seniors showed their superiority, winning by a score of 12 to ll. The last game of the evening was played between the freshmen and sopho- mores. The score was 24 to 10 in favor of the freshmen. VVednesday proved the great night of the tourney. Rooters from all the four classes were there, and the representation was larger than it had been at either of the precding nights. The sophomores and juniors played the first game, the juniors defeating their underclassmen 16 to 6. The freshies were scheduled to play the seniors, and the game was, without doubt, the best game of the tournament, due to the fact that both teams were playing their final game, the result to determine the Winner of the tournament. The First year men showed themselves to be the best players, defeating the seniors 28 to 10. Mr. Dutter picked the all star team, consisting of three freshmen, Charles jones, Doc Tanner, Roy Grubeg two juniors, Maxey and English. Noble Kizer, captain of this year's basket ball team, picked the second team, Cressner, H. Grube, Robertson, Huff and Switzer. No letter men were allowed to enter the tournament.

U- - -. - mn E El Basket Ball '17-'18 D Our basket ball season is a fond recollection for this year. Although we could have wished for a more successful season it is better than the average team makes. The following is the schedule and scores played this year: J PLYMOUTH NVHERE PLAYED VISITORS Plymouth 24 here . AYQOS Plymouth 23 there .

Even in some of the games where we run large scores, the game was well worth seeing because of the speed and precision with which our fellows worked. In many of our games the P. H. S. was greatly disappointed. Our great- est pain at losing were the Valparaiso, Rochester and South Bend games. However, the following is a record of which to he proud. IVe have a total of 972 points to our opponents 410. The following players: Brugh, Kizer, Pifer, Grolich, Snyder, Hahn, Rhinehart and Garn were awarded attractive sweaters. Our showing at the district tournament was indeed Hattering. It may he due to the fact that we played more or less weak teams, but we got a great deal of newspaper notoriety for our playing for which we feel justly honored. Two of our men, Kizer and Pifer, made the first district team, and two, Brugh and Snyder, the second district team. XVe feel very proud indeed of this team and with some of this year's men back we hope for even a more successful season next year. PHS Q . I 23 H F' lgsg I Page Twenty-nine
