licisleetlvcill M. T if 80fllflCi Sweet Home's basketball team showed a slight improvement this last season even though they only won three games. The Huskies lost some very close games this year, and no team that played them was assured of an easy vic- tory. Then, too, the Husky squad was made up mostly of juniors playing for their first time on the varsity team, but they gained much needed experience even though they had to take quite a few beatings to gain that experience. lt's expected that next year this experience will pay off in the form of a winning team. Nigel Shockey was a first team forward and a very good all around player. He proved very useful to the Husky team, and he should be even more helpful next year. Shockey made a total of T53 points for the season to tie for second place in the race for top scoring honors. Dean Ingram, the other forward, also scored 153 points. Dean was a great help to the squad, both on offense and defense. He proved himself especially good at stealing the ball, and working the fast break. Jim Moyer, another iunior, proved himself a very capable center this year. He did a fine iob of holding down the center spot, and he managed to pile up a total of T69 points in the season to become the team's top scorer. Ken Noah, another iunior, did an all around good job on one of the guard positions. Ken showed some very fine team play this year. Ken made 35 points for the season in spite of the fact that he missed a lot of games because of sickness. The other guard spot was well taken care of by Charlie Hall. Charlie should get some special notice because he was the only soph- omore to make the first team. He made a total of 61 points this season.

YB Squad Football Mr. Boroughs guided his B team to a very successful season this year. The Husky Pups won a total of six out of seven games. They are to be complimented highly for this achieve- ment. This is the second successful season for the Sweet Home B squad in two years. A good B team always gives Sweet Home something to look forward to next year. A successful B team usually means success for the A team next year. lt's nice to see that Sweet Home is building for the future, and we wish all our B teomers good luck and hope they will have an even better season next year. TEX STEVENSON At the annual Athletic Banquet Tex Steven- son, right end and captain of the football squad, received the Santiam Sporting Goods' Trophy for his outstanding play, his team co- ordination, sportsmanship and character. Captain Tex Stevenson and Dick Norquist, quarterback for the Huskie squad were selected by the coaches of the conference by almost an unanimous decision for posts on the Tri-County football team. On last year's Huskie squad Tex played tackle, so this was quite a feat to accomplish.
