Description:	LLAMARADABASKETBALL REVIEWBasketball surely is fine;But we cant win all the time.Weve had disappointments; and weve had treats.We started out with quite a thrill,When we just barely beat Stinesville.Next at home, we won again;We beat Oolitic, a conference game.At West Baden we hit our stride;But Shoals then took us for a ride.At Bloomington we learned the games not wonUntil you hear that final gun.Another win at Unionville,Then Monrovia gave us a spill.We then took Solsberry right along;But against Smithville and Gosport, we went wrong.The New Years day game was quite a treat.But Spencer swept us off our feet.Gosh! Orleans, they did the same.Then at Oolitic, we won a game.We then beat the Needmore quintet;But we still had a few games yet.In the Valley Tourney we split half and half;Won the first and lost the last.We then made Patricksburg retreat;Then at Shoals we met defeat.Then to Spencer journeyed weFor revenge as you may see.On our floor the Stinesville ladsMet defeat that wasnt bad.Then at Bloomfield we heard the gun,Y^es, we had points, but we lacked some.We then beat Unionville again,That made ten losses and twelve wins.Then in the Sectional Tourney frameWe won at first, then lost a game.But still the boys are pals of mine;So Ill just close this little rhyme.(This page through the courtesy of Guy A.
