Racine lost the first game of the sea- son to the Alumni by the score of 5-0. This being merely a practice game, Coach Cox tried out many players. RACINE-MII,XVAUKEE RIVERSIDE HIGH Racine met its second reverse of the season at Milwaukee, losing to the strong Riverside High 15-0. Racine was handicapped by having a much lighter team than Milwaukee had.

RACINE - WAI,WORTH Racine won its'first game by defeating Walworth 42-15 in an easy game. Every man on the squad was given a chance, and all performed in an acceptable manner.

A. Cox, Racine has again produced a basketball team of the championship calibre. By means of the famous Racine short-pass game, and pivot, a squad which at first looked but mediocre developed into a team Of the highest ability, a team with such a high degree of physical efficiency that it easily took third place in the sectional tournament. Coach Cox aims to promote athletics in the broadest sense, not only for the physical effect, but for its effect on the moral Hbre of the individual. In the basketball team of 1921-22, Mr. Cox has realized his high- est ideals and has produced a team not only supreme in the game itself but in the sportsmanship that makes the game worth while. Qlhe Jfirst Ulieam CAPTAIN DON WAIJEWITZZ Don's able leadership and aggressive work at guard made him a captain worthy of the team and the school.

HARLAN SNOKE: Harlan played a whale of a game at standing-guard, not allow- ing many to get behind him. HIERB. FALKENRATH: Herb also played standing-guard, a position which hin- dered him from starring, but which always helped make a wonderful game.

Seasnrfs Eames RACINE-MILWAUKEE UNIVERSITX' HIGH Racine High School 1922 Basket Ball Team made its debut Ianuary 6 by defeating the fast Milwaukee University Team to the tune of 25 to 15. The fea- ture of the game was the clever pass work, and the five men defense of the Black and Gold Aggregation. RXXCINE - WAUWATOSA The Black and Gold quintet showed its real speed to the members of the Wau- watosa Team by lacing them 28 to 25 Friday, lanuary 15. The playing of our boys showed the results of clever coach- ing. RACINE f SOUTH MILWAUKEE The Basket Ball Team journeyed to South Milxvaukee, Ianuary 14, to trim the Red and White Team. The long and fast sight-seeing trip to this berg did not dim the eyes of the boys of good old Racine, for they were victorious, being on the long end of the score, 19 to 14. RACINE - FOND DU LAC The R. H. S. Big Five left Racine for a three days' trip, playing its first game at Fond du Lac on Ianuary 27, where it met its first defeat of the season by a score of 14 to 17. The Black and Gold Coach did not train the boys for a com- bination dance and basket ball game. Our boys did not realize at first that they were dancing around a waxed floor, and by the time they got into their usual basket ball stride, it was too late for the Black and Gold score to be placed with the other victories. RACINE - MARINETTE The Racine players arrived Saturday, Ianuary 28, at Marinette with revenge in the eye, which the Northerners did not detect until the Black and Gold had rolled up a score of 20 to 2 in the first half, with our boys going easy. The final score showed Racine 51 and Marinette 12. The cagers felt better about their defeat at Fond du Lac upon considering the beating they gave Marinette. RACINE - BELOIT Racine High School Team took its second real jaunt in a visit to Beloit, February 5. It defeated the Fairies by the tune of 25 to 15. The game was fast and at no time were our boys in danger of defeat, due to the excellent work of the entire team. RACINE f IANESVILLE The Black and Gold lads left the Fairies for Ianesville where, because they were so wild over their victory at Beloit, the Ianesville cagers put them in a small gymnasium. Consequently, our boys, having been coached in the spacious lV1cKinley lunior High Gynmasium, were 'cribbed, cabined, and confinedf Considering the handicap our fighters experienced in the small gymnasium, they made the opponent team realize it was fighting a real team for its victory in this game of 19 to 11. RACINE - KENOSHA The clever coach of the Racine High School Black and Gold Team had his boys pack their basket ball parapher- nalia on February 10 for a trip to Kenosha. With them went staunch rooters to back up the heroes. Although our team lost by the score of 22 to 18, we felt no disgrace. Much credit is due the Kenosha team for beating Racine High School for the first time in years. RACINE 4 SHE BOYGAN On February 17, the Sheboygan High School team came to Racine for revenge which it did not get. It received instead a drubbing by the score of 24 to 17 by the hands of the Black and Gold Fight- ing Five. It was a well-played game and our fighters deserved the support of all the students of the school. Those who were not present missed a very exciting evening. The floor work and shooting were excellent indeed. Three cheers for the Black and Gold boysl RACINE - WEsT ALLIS On the night of February 25, the Black and Gold basket ball players defeated the West Allis quintet by a score of
