The V arsity has been working hard
on their fa s t break and o u tsid e sh o o t­
ing to overcome a severe height pro­
blem. With no one on the squad reach ­
ing six fe e t in height, Chemawa is a
sm all team in a league of g ia n ts. The

toughest AA league in the s ta te . Stay-

opponents, rank one and two in s ta te ­
wide p o lls.

game in league play and 18.5 for the
overall se a so n . A lbert has scored 260
points in 14 gam es. Gerald Gamble is

over half its se a so n and se v e ra l of
the players show fine p o tential for

The coaches
singled out Jim A leck, the team cap ­
ta in , and Harold F a irb a n k s, Fred Kir-
s te a tte r and Fred Sw'eowat, but added
that a ll team members have shown
sp irit and h u stle . The jay v ees a lso
lack h e ig h t, but have some e x cellen t
o utside sh o o ters.
