BASKETBALL SEASON 1934-1935 Cedarville basketeers were able to defeat but one team on their schedule this year. They defeated Springfield Third Lutherans twice. This team was composed of quite a few siars, inc!uding Rader, all state center in 1933, and Doughman, former Springfield High Ace. Somewhat handicapped by injuries the plucky survivors managed to give stiff battles to Bluffton and Rio Grande, losing by one point to the former and two points to the latter. The Homecoming game this year was played with Defiance; at that time the only undefeated team in the state. Coach Ault's charges gave the Defiance men a hard battle before the large homecoming crowd but size, ability, and experience conquered giving the lads from the North a 31 to 21 decision over the Orange and Blue. Cedarville, though landing in the cellar of the Northwestern Ohio Conference, was honored by having Joe Waddle, stellar forward, placed on the first all-conference team, and Harry Wallace, guard, given honorable mention. Both boys are soph- omores and will be back next year, furnishing the nucleus of the 1935-36 team. Ed. Brigham, lanky center who made a good showing for his first season of basketball will be back with more experience next year. The team loses Carl Ferguson and Gilbert Christian by graduation. Letters were awarded to Christian, Ferguson, Waddle, Wallace and Brigham. With the development of a number of freshmen we are looking forward to a better season for 1935-1936. Page forty-eight
