GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Stevensville High School basketball group of eighteen has again enjoyed another exciting season of fun and frolic. Even though we haven't succeeded in winning every game we played, each girl has really strived for her dear Ole Alma Mater and any defeat was due to the limited amount of practice the girls received. But when Tuesday came around, you could always find them in the gym. Their suits consisted of red satin shorts with white shirts. There have been five thrilling games, two with Coloma, two opposite New Troy, and the last against the Y WC A, girls. Three of these five battles were fought on our home floor and with every game real sportsmanship has been demonstrated. The girls have been coached by Mrs. Smith, who has been coach of the girls team for several years. Several of the leading players who are Seniors are leaving the Freshmen and other players to do better next year. So come on you gals and do your stuff, we are depending on you! Here's hoping you are the future champs. First Row: Pallas. Wickwire. Siewert, Mrs. Smiih. coach. Dehring. E. CJorske Smoko Row: Hodder. I). Pooch. €. Sicwert. Schaeffer. C. Ciorskc.

GRADE BASKETBALL Fust Row: KjisuI.is, Davis, lorgenson. W. On. Kronas, lung. Shaffer Second R«»w: DcNIorrow, DaDan, M. On, Bariz, Woods, Sicweri, Coach Ecclcs The Aces basketball squad had a very unsuccessful year, win- ning only a small percentage of their games during the season. They we e eliminated by a fast St. Joseph Catholic team in the grade tournaments held in this school. This year the Aces were a last half team. They would fumble the ball and miss many shots in the first half. In the second half the Aces would play ball the way they should and would outscore the other team. However, the opponent's score would be so large that they couldn't overcome it. The Aces used a man to man defense, but their offensive play was weak because they would miss a big percentage of their shots. Another fault of theirs was that they would throw the ball in the hands of the opponents. This was prob- ably because the boys were excited. The Aces had played very tough teams during the season and this was an important factor which had much to do with their losing so many times. Next year the team will be without the services of John Kronos, Norman Shafer, Bill Ott, Junior Jung, Gene Jorgenson, and Virgil Davis. These players will graduate this year, and next year will probably become members of the high school team. The Punks were very much the same as the Aces because they too lost a majority of their games. This team is organized of boys who are not old enough or are too small to play with the Aces. They played different rural schools during the year. Next year some of the players from this team will play with the Aces.
