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 .
