Grade Basketball The grade basketball team was not highly successful from the standpoint of wins. Fundamentals of the game and good sportsmanship, however, were stressed on the gym floor. After the season was over, a tournament, composed of sixth, seventh and eighth grade teams, was held. In the final game the eighth defeated the seventh in a hard fought see-saw battle. Intramural Sports In order to take care of the noonday recreation hour a well organized intra- mural system was set up by Mr. Roby. Anyone who desired could participate. The boys played basketball and the girls played volley ball. The Basketball teams were: The Renaissance, Mudhens, Mugwumps, Alley Rats, Hot Shots, Red Peppers, Whezzers, Muckleheads. The Renaissance won with six victories and one loss. Wallick, M. Jones, B. Shutt, Margo, Mercer, Anderson and Humerickhouse composed the winning team. In the girls' volley ball league, which has not been completed, there are five teams.

JOHN PAUL MILLER On January 18, 1920, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Miller were blessed with the birth of a son. Cheese obtained the sand and grit for his basket- ball career when he was quite young. One day when he was visiting his Aunt Margaret he found what he thought was some white sand. Imagine how sur- prised his aunt was when she found him playing in her 100 pound sack of sugar. In his Freshman and Soph- omore years, Johnnie served as center on the reserve team. The past season. he has filled both the forward and center positions. Next year, he will be a valuable member of the Tiger Squad. BOB DEIBEL Bob was born May 29, 1920. While yet quite small Bob had to be guarded because he ran away so much. His mother would tie him to a tree and his true friend, Carl McClure, would untie the rope and give Bob his freedom. Bob began his basketball training as a guard on the reserve team. He held this position during his Freshman and Sophomore years. Bob has worked hard on the Varsity this year and all indications show that he will be a re- nowned S. H. S. guard next year. CHARLES REIGER Chuck entered this world May 7, 1920. Babe started his strict basketball training while he was yet very young. He was taken to a wedding supper and after supper the cigars were passed. Babe was asked if he smoked. While taking a handful of cigars Babe replied, I don't smoke but my Dad does. Babe played guard on the second squad his Freshman year and has held the same place his Sophomore and Junior years. Babe was well rewarded for his diligent basketball practice when he was placed on the all County and all District Tourney teams this year. Chuck will be one of the best qualided players for 1938-1939 Varsity ROBERT RAICA Robert Raica came to live at the home of his parents on August 8, 1920. From little up, he wanted to make himself higher in this world. He used to climb the picket fence be- side his house. His dad would call to him, Get off that fence before you fall down and break your pumpkin. Bucky played forward cn the reserve squad last year and was a sub for this year's Tiger team. The Tiger's 1937-38 sea- son will be greatly helped by his playing. PAUL HASWELL Paul was born April 23, 1919. His basketball abil- ity is not to be judged by throwing his shoes thru an upstairs window when his aim was bad. As a Freshman he was on the Reserve Squad and during the next two years he was a regular forward. Handicapped the past year by a bad knee, he still made the all-county tour- nament team and the all- district mythical five. We say to our fans Watch Pete next year. RAMON RENNER GARVER WALLICK Garver Wallick was born April 8, 1919. Brig at- tended Wooster Highway School where he received his early basketball training. Brig played forward on this year's reserve team. He was one of the first ten on the Tiger squad. Brig is a promising mem- ber for next year's team. All season his work has pleased both the coach and fans. He is a good shot, a graceful player and looks forward to a year of splendid basket- ball ahead. ' MAURICE BAYER Maurice first saw the light of day April 5, 1921. He showed his athletic inclination when he play- ed on the Klinetown ball teams. Maurice filled the forward position on the Reserve team and is a very promising prospect for the coming seasons. Bayer plays hard and his ambition to land a regular berth on the Tig- ers five will not go unre- warded. When the season opens next Fall, Bayer will be in shape. LLOYD 'HAAS The Renner family was very happy on January 23, 1918 at the arrival of Ramon. From little up he was athletically inclined. When he was quite small, he played miniature golf in Shutt's garden. This game started Ramon on his basketball career. Raino played on the sec- ond squad in his Sopho- more year and has held the center position on the Varsity squad in his Junior and Senior years. Renner made the all- County and all-District teams this year. He will be greatly missed by the team since he is graduat- ing this year. We wish Ramon as much success in life as he has had in basketball. WILLARD WEIGAND for Willard Life began Weigand on May 9, 1919. Even in the second grade, he became the center of attraction. Red held the center position on the reserve team the past season. Because of his height, he has a splendid chance of becoming a full-fledged Tiger next year. Although the center jump has been eliminated Red will be a valuable asset. The stork passed over Strasburg on December 15, 1919 and left a bounc- ing baby at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Haas. Even as a small lad, Lloyd was fascinated by round objects. One moonlit night, he, his mother and father, went to Bolivar. On the way, Lloyd spied the moon. Each time he looked from the window, he saw a different moon. Till he reached home he had counted twelve moons. This trait hasn't left him but he has turn- ed his gaze to another round object-the basket- ball. In his Freshman year, Lloyd played guard on the Varsity team. This year, as a Soph, he has held the same position.
