Row 2: George Bowersox, Richard Shick, Walter Myers, Ray Taylor, Arnold Kunselman, Vernon Hawk. Because of the limited gymnasium facilities at Redbank for basketball purposes. we hoopmen were permitted to use the American Legion Park floor for practice. There the high ceilings and extensive area made it possible for us to bank balls, and try long shots. . Rumors say that we may have a brand new gym to use for sports next year. For once we hard- court fliers hope the rumors are true. Perhaps then we can show the student body and sports fans of New Bethlehem that basketball is here to stay! This '51-52 season brought many of our past rivals back on the floor in competition with us. THE HARDCOURT FLIERS Our schedule was as follows: GAME avi-is opp. Horton Township .,.. .... 3 2 47 Clarion-Limestone . . . 35 74 Reynoldsville ...... H 35 105 Big Run . 22 32 43

Ronald Adams, Bob Lucas, Fred Doverspike, Dean Shaffer, Roxi- ald Cochran. Here we are again after our second year of wrestling. Most of the matmen this year had one year's experience. As we became more experienced grapplers, we became a bigger threat to our opponents. We are very proud of the fact that high school wrestling is definitely not television wrestling. It is a good. wholesome. clean sport. We are happy this year to have had matches at home because they give us a little more to iight for. Previously all the bouts were held in our opponents gym. We feel renewed spurts of energy when we hear our friends and classmates cheering us on to victory.
