ru: 1.-. -411 In Season In Review The 1948-49 basketball season was a success from the standpoint of team spirit and cooperation between the boys and the coach, Mr. Waren. He did a fine job in coaching us to the wins we had over some of the teams who had beat us badly last year. The team was a fighting team that tried all the way. With five letter-men returning to form tgetngcleus of the squad Mr. Waren built a good team in the short time a o e . We don't want to overlook the cheerleaders who stuck with us through thick and thin. They were among the best dressed cheerleaders in the Ambraw Valley. The following is a list of the boys that were out for basketball during the season: Gene Denney Wayne Parker Don Ennis Dean Richardson Jerry Mullens Harry Hackett Gerald Dauglherty Dwight Sloan J. C.
