}Jmir-Imu Bottom Row: Wallace, Storm, Davidson, G. Elliott, Martin. Middle Row: Hartsell, R. Elliott, Lovins, Rose, Bennett. Back Row: Walden, G. F. Lemons, B. Lemons, Hennigh, Neill, Coach Dunscomb. Basket Ball CAPT. T. D. HENNIGH: The Windsor basketball team of this season was very ably led by Captain Thomas Dale Hennigh. T. D. was a great aid to the defensive and our main cog in the offensive. His strength on the team can be judged by his place on three All-Star selections and his point record for the season, in which he tallied 182 counters. JIM WALLACE: Jim was a raw recruit from the baby class, but in spite of this seeming handicap he made a splendid showing this season. Jim played a guard position but was also the initial wheel in the offensive. His dribbling and passing was exceptionally good at all times. Wallace along with Hennigh placed on the Moultrie County All-Star with little difficulty. He was awarded a like honor at Assumption. Jim has three more years with us and we bank much of the future on him. BOYD LEMONS: Boyd played the center position for the Windsor lads this season and although he was not quite as large as most of his opponents he made a fine showing at the assigned part. Lemons and Capt. Hennigh worked well together and Boyd will look even better next year; so watch his scoring column next year. JOE MARTIN: Joe is a boy from the “Burg”, and you know them. He -4 29

 lil fom Pmu was a mighty hard man to guard and a fighter in all departments. He played a clever forward and his work at the district tourney was exceptionally good. We lose Joe this year and we regret it very much. (So do the feminine rooters.) “SWET” NEILL: Ralph is the other man we lose this year; he proved himself a valuable man at a guard post. “Swet” was always fighting and none of them ever got too big or rough for him. K. DAVIDSON: Kenneth played within a few quarters of a letter last year and his season’s work this year was certainly admirable. He is another representation from the Junior class and he, along with Hennigh, Lemons, Wallace and Red Elliott, will be likely to compose the team next year. Kenneth was always a hard fighter and his defensive work improved considerably as the season wore on. RED ELLIOTT: Red is another boy from the infant class, but not thi infant class of basketball material. Red proved himself a very flashing man on offense and with Coach Dunscomb to improve his defense he will be a hard man to handle next year. Season’s Account At the opening of the 1927-28 season some of the Windsor basketball fans were very free with their adverse criticism and prospects for Windsor’s having a good team looked very poor to most of us. But after the Strasburg game, where Windsor not only displayed some good material but a strong team, the town pessimists were willing to admit a bright out-look for the coming season. WINDSOR, 19; STRASBURG, 18 After five consecutive victories and one defeat the strong Strasburg team was overcome by the Windsor quintet by a score of 19 to 18. Swigert of Strasburg, a prospect for Windsor next season, scored 13 of Strasburg’s 18 points, while Martin and Elliott tied for high point honors on the Windsor five. KANSAS, 22; WINDSOR, 17 The outcome of the opening game placed too much confidence in our boys and the Gold and Blue failed to tally the required points for a victory. Martin again was high point man for Windsor. STEWARDSON, 14; WINDSOR, 10 The fifth game was placed with Windsor’s old rival Stewartson. This game was a hard-fought defensive game and Windsor played much better ball than the score would indicate. It was in this game that Ralph Neill firmly established himself as a member of the team. WINDSOR, 18; ALUMNI, 13 The contest between the basket ball players in W. C. H. S. that are, and those who were, and still are, occurred during Christmas vacation. The predictions gave the strong Alumni team a ten point victory but the actual playing gave it to the high school boys by a five point margin. 1928 30 )■ - %
