' Sammy Angle's Cedar Twigs went through the basketball season, holding a good record of fourteen wins out of twenty-two of the most thrilling games Lebanon High School pupils had ever seen. The strength of the team was probably due to its expert play- ersg such as Siegel, Kleinfelter, Brensinger, and Kalbach. In the Central Pennsylvania League games the Iay-Vees tied William Penn in the posi- tion of third place with a percentage of .5oo, while Reading came first in standing with a percentage of .917, and York second with a percentage of .75o. Lebanon tried to average last year's only loss to Reading, but did not succeed, although the pivoteers played hard. Credit must be given to the 1941 Iay-Vees because it is be- lieved another great L. H. S. Varsity team will emerge from them. ' Although sophomore basketball has been a comparatively new sport in Lebanon High School, it has been received with decided enthusiasm by all who attended the games. Many of the sophomore lads who went out for this sport were mere novices with a keen desire to learn. Entrusted to the capable hands of Coaches Feeser and Giles, the newly-chosen courtsters began to grow in experience and capability. The coaches, who have had sev- eral years' experience as players and instruc- tors, were able to impart invaluable knowl- edge to the young hopefuls. Their accurate response to instructions and their ability to learn quickly were two main factors that brought about several victories. Many of us became familiar with these On the squad were a number of high- scoring individuals who in the future will make great Varsity Ustufff' Herman Siegel led all by attaining 155 scoring points-59 field goals and 37 foul goals. Second on the list was Wally Kleinfelter, who had 123 scoring points-55 Held goals and I3 foul goals. Other boys who held high scores for the year were Brensinger, scoring 104 pointsg Kalbach, 90, and Becker, 39. Bowman, Gates, Kurtz, and Foltz also worked hard and played magnificently. One must not forget the very important cog', in the wheel,' of the sport, the coach. All the players will long remember Coach Sammy Angle. A fairly successful season of ubasketeeringn ended by L. H. S. nearly swamping Steelton with a score of 46 to 22. .S70l0L0l'll0I'e KGJLJLG-f plucky newcomers when they played in our gym before the Varsity and Iunior Varsity games began. These sophomore games made the spectators sit up and take notice, placing them in a more receptive mood for the two remaining games. Although some defeats came to this team, as with most teams, their heads remained high and that try, try, again spirit still remained. We need fighting spirit like this in our teams to succeed, and the sophomore team has shown that it has what it takes to reach the top. Their participation in these games prepares them for future posi- tions on varsity teams, so we salute their unstinting efforts and look forward to a high- ly successful season in the future.
