They had a very good foul shooting: percentage was very good, hitting 217 out of 418 for a percentage of .519. We won the North Vernon game on fouls. Scoring was fairly well distributed with Marvin (Butch) Graves coming out with a total of 166; second was Don Jackson with 119; third was Larry Tabor with 107.

The Freshman squad under the leadership of Coach Jack Jones had it very tough during their scheduled season, coming up with one win and fifteen losses; although many of their games were lost by very small margins. These boys are very good ball players and show great chances for playing on next year's second team.
