Harold Kuebler of Bo.cc. and Rusaell Anderson of Frsnklin. and Sylvester Barnett, also of Boas* at the other guard The first string combination would be a formidable crew for any high school team to face. It possesses remarkable scoring shtl ity. with far better than average defensive skill Johnson, regular Hot Dog center. played a strong consistent game for the Frankfort team tLioughout the entire season He was an accurate shot, and bis onehanded push** from near the has ket were disastrous for must Hot I tog foes He is a smooth floor man and assured snd confident on both defense and offense.

In scoring in their regional and semifinal play, and during the semi final and final tourneys netted 45 points for what is believed to be a record for the final four gain, r Crowe, riant negro star for the Gristly Cubs was easily the outstanding man in Saturday's play He sparked the Franklin fixe through ail its toufney games au< led them to their unexpected victory over Muncie Burris in the first gsm* of the final me-' Then he overshadowed all lh«Frankfort stars in n futile single handed attempt to bring the Grig , xly Cuba home with their font tn state title.

Laughner. a former Michigantown boy, was another outstanding star for the champions and netted 13' points to lead their scoring In the championship tustle. Pyle was a defensive standout In both Frankfort games, and although he figured little In the scoring, he showed a good eye tor the net. Kuebler. slight Evansville forward, was close behind Myers in general effectiveness in the battle with Frankfort. Russell Anderson, lanky Franklin forward, was an Important cog In the afternoon victory o'.er Muncie, and was thoroughly effective in the evening combat until tossed out of the game on four personals, all called against him for trying to stop some unstoppable Frankfort shots.
