The Tiger Class A Team wound up the season in a blaze of glory by defeating the front-running Parlier A squad in a nip and tuck game, 49-48. All other Tranquillity squads were victorious that night. The victory gave the team a 3-5 record for the season in league games. Bill Humphers, stellar forward and Doyle Barnes, dependable guard are the only losses by graduation.

Players for all the positions will be back next year except Doyle Barnes, stellar right half and Cap- tain Derl Keen who played brilliant ball as left guard for the Blue and Gold. Thus the Tigers will field almost the same first string line-up as represented them this season except that the boys will have had much more experience than heretofore. The team showed good spirit and fine sportsmanship, for which the boys deserve great com- mendation. Coach John Marshall Managers left to right: Jesse Peters, Norman Lazaroti, Billy Henry, Ralph Rhodes and Robert Pederson.

Tigers vs. Kerman Central Riverdale Laton Sierra Caruthers Parlier Kerman Central Riverdale Laton Sierra Caruthers Parlier Kerman Champ The middle-sized basketeers came from a slow start in practice tilts to a l.OOO in the League standings to win the Sierra title. Kerman took the County Championship from the Tiger B's by one point in a closely-fought contest. The team consisted of most of the l949 championship C Tigers players plus several excellent players from that year. They were valiant in defeat for the County Championship as they were in winning the League. Edward Smiley captained the squad through its successful season. A team vote showed Edward Smiley, Joseph Martin, and Richard Knight tied tor the most valuable player.
