VARSITY BAS CEE Bes rae Led by the splendid playing of Captain Danny Bartkow and George Dempsey, the King’s basketball team rolled up an impressive record over the toughest opposition they have ever faced. King's got off to very poor start losing the first four games. After taking the next two, they took off for Wheaton just after the Christmas holidays. This year there were two other games out west, one with Hunting- ton College and one with Taylor College. These games had to be played without the services of Captain Bartkow who was ill at the time. In the Wheaton game, King’s was right in there until the last quarter when Dempsey and McDaniel fouled out and Marsh Davis sprained his ankle. Returning from their trip, King’s resumed her schedule a week later against Glassboro. The game resulted in a victory for King’s and was soon to be counted as the first victory in a string of twelve straight. Included in this string was a victory over Millersville STC, which is one of the better teams in the Pa. STC loop. Leading this high-scoring aggregation at forward was George Dempsey, who has a scoring record which is probably among the best in the nation. At the other forward was Captain Danny Bartkow. Marsh Davis was at center with Jim Gerhard, Jim Hicks, and Danny McDaniels alternating at guards. The substitutes were Don Drake, Roy Green, Bob Reumann, George Meyers and Dick Bowser. Bob Bullock was manager. 76

Ebel ss BASK ECB Ava ‘Come on Team! Fight! Fight! Fight!” is the cheer which made the girls’ basketball team play more heartily in 1949. “Our Team is Red Hot’’—with Betsy Pennington, Joan Fleegal, and Mary DeWitt, playing as forwards and Kay Friedlander, Amy Rowe and Joyce Blidberg, playing as guards. The simmering substitutes were Betty Baddorf, Ethel Walker, Betty Stoudt, Jean Meyers, Mary Babbikow, Fern Baer and Ruth Hegel. Excellent coach- ing was given by Jim Hicks and Roy Green, and Phyllis Neal did a bang-up job as manager. The high scorer was Betsy Pennington, who played in seven games, rallying 65 points. Running close behind her, in scoring 63 points in eight games, was Mary DeWitt. Our third top player was Joan Fleegal, who played in seven games, scoring 44 points. The Wesley game was extremely exciting. All through the game the girls were playing hard and skillfully, but it was during the last few minutes that the players were adding up the score rapidly. The team lost only by 4 points. The second game with Howard was interesting because of the extra good teamwork displayed by the King's girls. Playing against Governor Bacon's team was the highlight of the year with the roaring, winning score of 62-34. Thirty points were made by Betsy Pennington. All the games played this year will be remembered because of the excellent teamwork and the good sports- manship of the girls. Next year will bring more winning games and high scoring along with the best Girls’ bas- ketball team that The King’s College has ever had. King's Opponent 1 yt ee ce eee Bedicony., 315.5.)
