FIRST TEAM BASKETBALL While the Selah Viking Basketball quintet did not make an impressive showing in the volley this year, they were a team that won respect lrom all by their boundless determination to play their best right up to the final whistle. The Vikings won exactly fifty per cent ol the games played during the lull season that started with the Selah-Prosser game on December 6th and terminated with the game against Ellensburg on February 14th. Although in the final standings Selah rated 6th place team in the upper valley, it was a nip and tuck race between Toppenish, Ellensburg, and Selah, to see which teams would capture the 4th, Sth and 6th place in the Northern Division. The end ol the season found the teams playing in the order listed above, with Wapato, Cle Elum and Yakima capturing 'lst, Qnd and 3rd places.

B SQUAD BASKETBALL The Selah Viking B squad coached by Gerry Weitz was successful this year in accomplishing its main aim, that of building up young inexperienced players into prospective material for the varsity squad. Even though the B squad won a low percentage of the games played, the experience gained by the members of this squad served as full compensation. Two Sophomores, Ardell Kleppin and Richard McConnell, showed great promise this year and are being eyed for possible service next year on the varsity team. The entire squad is to be congratulated for its teamwork and never- say-jie tattitude. The two managers, Dick l-layes and Edward Shayne also deserve credit for a goo io .
