At the beginning of the basketball season about fifty prospective V. H. S. athletes turned out lor intramural basketball. Their supervisor. Mr. Pye, was on hand to give the boys a tew pointers on the game. The boys got together one noon and chose eight captains to pick the teams. A schedule was worked out by means ot which each team was allowed to play each and every other team. These games were played on the average of twice a week. The winner oi these rousing games was Bob Hanneman's team. which did not lose any of its eight games. Lloyd Horak's team was runner-up, losing only one game. Since the basketball tournaments were held in Vinton. the intramurals were unable to hold another complete round of games. The intramural games not only give the players a chance to enjoy themselves but also in- creases their interest in sports. Many of this year's intramural players will compete tor a posi- tion on next year's varsity squad. Page Twenty-nine 1

I A triumph for the vocal department was the musical, Accent on Swing. .Miss Popoil and the entire Glee Club worked tirelessly during Glee Club praciice and at special rehearsals to make the swing show something to be proud of. ' N Finally came the big night and the cast were all in their proper costumes and places waiting for the show to begin. The curtain rose on the Darkey Scene which, like all the other scenes. was appropriately costumed. The second scene was the Cowboy Scene. For the last two scenes-the Moonlight Scene and the Finale , the girls added glamour by donning formals. In addition to the choruses there were a number of solos by both boys and girls. , Everyone that saw it will agree that Accent on Swing was the musical show ol the year. Page Twenty-eight

Selken, Ketchen. X With the opening of school, Vinton's gridders began intensive workouts in preparation for a hard season. You would hear on crisp autumn aiternoons the staccato bark of quarterbacks, the thud of cr hard tackle, or the grunts and groans of a lineman struggling to get in for a tackle. The fellows really worked, and many tirst year men along with the veterans were constantly in the thick of things. The season was a successful one, although the team was beset with iniuries-three veterans, Selken, Byam, and Rinker all out at once. The team will feel the loss of its seniors next year, but the material com- ing up points to a good season.
