GIRLS' BASKETBALL This year girls' basketball was a part of the high school's extra-curricular activit'ies. Each physical education class had a team under' the direc- tion of Coach North. These four teams played noon-day com- petition in two rounds, the second class winning the first round and the first class winning the second. There was an addition in the basketball class tournament this year, for the girls also took part. Wonders never cease! The freshmen were the champs with the seniors taking second. The sophomores took third and the juniors last. Basketball this winter was well practiced in our Physical Education classes, but We also did some scrimmaging evenings under Miss Trindal's leadership. As the basketball season was closing, Mr. North organized three teams that traveled to Gilman, Stanley and Cadott. The first team came through with a 21-19 victory. The second team was also successful and beat Stanley 28-18. Unfortunately, against very tough competition the third team fell to Cadott 16-12. Most all the girls enjoyed basketball and the underclass- men are certainly looking forward to next year. NOON-HOUR BOYS' BASKETBALL With the addition of four new baskets and backboards in the gym, it was decided to run noon-hour games across court in order to play two games at one time with one game a week played on the full length of the Hoor. This proved very success- ful and allowed more games to be played than in previous years. The Pistons came in first in both rounds of play, posting a 12 won 2 lost record. The Capitols, who tied the Pistons for first place in the iirst round was the runner up team with 11 wins, 3 loses. The Lakers and Redskins tied for third wit'h 8-6 records. Undisputed high scorer' was Joel Bookie Schmit of the Pistons and Bill Micke, captain of the Pistons was runner up. Among the outstanding players were Robert Mertens, Bill Urban, Richie Alger, Ed Przybylski, Windy Kubera, Robert Badzinski, Gordie Hanson, and Bill and Paul I-Iarycki. In the annual post season series with the HB squad, the All-Stars were only able to win 2 while losing 4 games. l Page Forty-nine
