FOUR ROSEBURS NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURg, OREGON, TUESDAY. DECEMBER 2. 1 94 1. RHS Basketball Prospects Don't Look Promising Prospects for basketball In Roseburg high school are not overly encouraging for the 1942 season, according to Jim Davis, coach. The team will be lacking in height and experience, al though there will be fair speed and plenty of spirit, Coach Davis reports. From among the towering In dians, all over six feet in height, pionslilp for Roieburg last year, only one player, Ed Hughes, Is left for this year, and from the reserve squad of last season, only one player John Ness remains. Six players from last year's B squad are turning out for practice this year, and show promise of making places on the working squad. They are Gerald Denny, Harold Cacy, Mclvln Baker, Lee Wimberly, Sam Shoemaker and Mickey Campbell. At the same time there are several promising sophomores, members of last year's junior high school squad. They arc Merlin Anderson, Art Stephens, Ward Cummlngs, Bill Hohnstein, George Vincent und Jack Maulding. Other players who survived the first cut of the squad are Craig Dishman. Tom Hastings, Dick Sands, Dick Hendricks and George James, From the approximately 30 players who turned out to start the practice season, Coach Davis now has reduced the squad to 22 of those showing the most prom ise and from this group will be selected the A and B squads to represent the school this year. The practice of putting young and inexperienced players in a B squad to play games with coun ty teams and with various schools of the state, has been ot great value in past seasons in develop ing material for A squads. Practice so far, the coach re ports, lias been devoted largely to fundamentals, as the majority of the squad has had but little bas ketball experience. Efforts are being made to shape up a team for participation In the confer ence jamboree to be held at Med ford, December 19. Coach Davis also is planning to arrange sev eral games for the holiday season. The first conference game of tlie season will be played here Janu ary 13 against Ashland high school. Prospects are that the local team will be rather slow in de veloping but should make steady Improvement as the season pro gresses, Davis states.
