The game was close until the last quarter. The Montello veteran Tomaselli scored 27 points to defeat Wells almost single-handed in the second game of the season for the Leopards. The score was 39-l5. Carlin came to Wells and, despite a last- minute rally, dropped a 35-32 decision. The Leopards showed more class than in any other game. The Elko lndions came to Wells and were lucky to leave with their scalps. The score at the end of the game was l3-l3. Wells rolled the ball around the hoop but it would not drop in. Elko made the first basket in the overtime period to win the game l5-l3. Battle Mountain showed srnooth passing in their game here and jumped into a lead in the third quarter which was too much for the Leopards to overcome. The final score was 30-13 in the visitors' favor. Wells kept the pressure on Winnemucca and came fast in the last quarter to outscore them lU-4. The gun, however, stopped the Leopards' rally, with the Buckaroos on the long end of a 27-23 score. Eureka came to Wells and lead the Leo- pards for three quarters. Wells was not tc be denied and jumped into the lead to win 40-35. Plustin, using a tight zone defense, kept the Leopards from scoring very heavily, but Wells won 24-l3. .IR ,A R' FA' '-. f'L --1 Pete Isola, loe McDaniel, Rex Brooks, Clair Knudse n Frank 'White Ed Cororie, Bill Kerr, lack Blaclcet .24. --s 6 T I 1 'T B 1-:k Row: E.

Carlin jumped into an early lead and won 38-27. Montello played here and again it was too much Tomaselli and Benedetti. Montello won 5l-22. The Leopards took a trip to Battle Mountain and, in a game that was much closer than the score showed, lost 45-28. For the first time in eleven years Wells defeated Winnemucca, the zone champions this year. Winnemucca started their second string and held a l4-ll lead at the half. The first string started the second half and Wells outplayed them, pulling ahead in the last quarter to win a 28-27 decision. For the first time in three years Wells broke even on the Eureka-Hustin games. They .45 f N 7 Y' K? f- .Q , i I f J' .'1lffYflYTl?'Il' lilfll' lost to Eureka 4l-l9, and defeated Hustin 25-22. In the tournament Wells played Winne- mucca the first game. Filthough the final score was 37-12, it was not until the last quarter that the Buckaroos had much of a lead on the Wells Leopards. ln the consola- tion bracket Wells nosed out a fighting Hus- tin team 29-27 in an overtime game. Hustin was in the lead until, with five seconds to go, Wells made a free throw and tied the score. The Leopards made the first basket in the first thirty seconds of the overtime period. For the fifth consecutive year the Leopards played in the finals of the consolation tourna- ment and were again turned back. Way off on their shooting, they dropped a 54-l7 de- cision to Montello. - 4- T' I 11: 1 ,Q xg 5 igwx, - ' ggtzji 3, X iff ltslfff :QQ l-, ,,i, -- ,L Ralph Blackett, lames Oxley, Gene Supp, Danny Remick, Evan Nielson, Eugene Pengelly, Lee Nielson, Manuel Sierra, Glenn Supp. 1lll5, In PAHD Rudlo news Drocdccxsts lrnp xrt cr d1st1nct1ve llcrx ur to everyduy and unusual events of the world ln Wells l-hgh School Leop xrd 9Cl1llJIlS l1lC9W1S6 have een pL1bl1SlIC'd 1 lquely tnterestmq news storles and edltorldls concernlng events of our schuol lh N339 Q40 Leopard ed1tor elected by the QSSOC1 uted Students wlth the md of fdculty CIdV1SOTS has assembled ct stuff ol drlrqent and resourceful workers who have kept us well utd mterestlnqly mtorrned qi the s hool news cf the yecxr Line l. t ms for H Pl Q rv M Dll rc: 1 rx ss Fe IS fs 3 49 792.

The number enrolled in the l939-l94U class oi Home Economics showed no increase over the number oi the previous year, as the equip- ment available in the Department limits to a great extent the enrollment. However, the ten girls who took part in the Foods class have enjoyed their year spent in learning the essen- tials of homemaking. The units ot work covered during the year included: Food Purchasing and Preparation, Table Service and Etiquette, Child Care, Health Care, Personal Grooming, and Family Relationships. The Manual Training class has completed a vast number oi projects in comparison to the limited size ot the group. The members have finished many projects for the school, as well as numerous articles for their own personal use and enjoyment. Under able supervision the boys have turned out useful work and are en- titled to be proud oi their progress. Some ot the types oi work participated in by the class are: cabinet making, wood turning, iumiture and building repairing, tool sharpening, and wood surface iinishing. DEPARTMENT ,35.
