This year Basketball celebrated its fiftieth anniversary. Wilcox celebrated its fifth anni- versary with the best record of its history. Of the twenty-seven games played, twenty were ended with our team on the long end of the count. These victories included decisions over Johnsonburg, Ridgeway, St. Marys, Kane, Em- porium, and Otto Township, all Class A schools. In league competition we were unde- feated for the second consecutive year, thus entering the District Class B playoffs. Last year we lost the district play-off game by a four point margin, but it was a different story this yearg with the team in full strength, we defeated Ludlow in the semi-final 42-39 and Summerville in the finals 45-35. Paqr 20 We can honestly say we had a great team this year and we believe this success to be due not only to our experience but to the har- mony and unselfishness that prevailed among the players. Ernest Allegretti, a veteran of four years varsity service and captain for the past two years, graduates this year with all the good wishes of his many teammates, his coach, and all the fans who have enjoyed and admired his playing. Other regulars to leave this year are: Paul Steve and Frank Chubon, high scoring forwards, and Frank Weritz, the best of defensive guards. Norbert Powell, Robert Simons, and Henry Feikls, our reserve players, will also receive their diplomas this June. Carl Novosel, perhaps one of the best players in this district, will be back again next year. LaVerne Johnson, sophomore re- serve center, will also be back to bolster the already promising jay-vee squad which will be the varsity squad for 1942-1943.
