KETB LL When the buzzer had announced the end of the final game of the sub-district tourna- ment here, the general rejoicing on the part of the local fans evidenced the fact that the boys on our basketball team and their coach, Bob Handke, had paid their debt in full for having lost all conference games this year. With only one win to their credit, the team had gone into the tournament as just another looser, but they emerged with a perfect tournament record to the de- light of all of us. Sharon, William.s Bay, and Walworth were beaten in successive games as the record below shows. Had the tournament turned out differ- ently, the team and their coach need not have felt too badly about their record. They started the season with only two senior regularzs. Gil Amborn was not in the line-up for several games because of an injured foot, and Jim Baumann was lost to the squad early in the season because of a LINE-UP Forward - Tom Gaynor Lee Jeffers Gary Held Center - Wally Partenheimer Bob Kramer Guards - Gil Amborn Don Amborn Jim Baumann Ccaptainj Subs - Charles Kist Fred Cornell Herman Harmon Terry Avery Qmanagerj shoulder injury. They also started with a squad of only about eight members and these were supplemented by the addition of two more seniors, Charles Kist and big Bob Kramer. Probably no player in the history of our school began his basketball career in the middle of his senior year and made a greater contribution to the team's success than did Bob Kramer. As the sea- son closed Bob was doing a tremendous job under the boards on both defense and of- fense. Charles Kist played in only a few games, but was a real work-horse in practice sessions. The spirit of these two boys even in defeat is emblematic of the spirit of all the squad members as they re- fused to admit their losses and came on the floor for each game determined to give the very best that they had for Wilmot High. We are proud to salute this spirit of de- termination and to include the team rec- ord here.
