PERSONELL OF TEAM VALFRED JOHNSONfCaptainJ-Finished his basket ball career this year, with three years' work on the basket ball team and one years' captaincy to his credit. Val was known as one of the best forwards P. H. S. has had. His place will be hard to fill next year. CLARE MILIGAN-Is another valuable man whose loss will be felt next year. He proved to be a good forward and earned a letter from hard work and fighting. HOWARD BURDSALL-Operating from guard position. Kept his former excellent standard, both in guarding and in basket shooting. Howard would run the floor, shoot bask- ets, and at the same time kept his man covered. He chang- ed at times from guard to center. Burdsall has two more years yet. T ROSCOE DAVIES-Started active work at the beginning of the season. His weight, combined with his speed has made his services in guard position very useful to the team. This is his last year. HARRY MCNAMARA-Worked at center most of the year, occasionaly shifting to forward. His weight, his good judgement fto say nothing of his good looksh will make Mac a loss to the team next year. ARNOLD WAITE-Was another scraper player who was unable to finish the season on account of illness. The time he did serve, however, showed that with two years ahead of him he will become a prime factor in P. H. S. Basket Ball. VERNON LAWRENCE-Was a very lively player on the team. Vernon's scrap and pep were the means of putting new life into the team on more than one occasion. He was absent from the picture on account of illness. He will be a valuable man next year. CONRAD JOHNSON-Played a hard and scrappy game in the foremost part of the year, until the factulty rendered him useless at the end of the first semester. DONALD WOODARD-His first year in basket ball but was there with the goods. His work will be valuable next year.
