Description:	Fo rewo rd:Just a few words about the U. H. S* basketball teamand their season.V/o realize that the Golden Arrows have won very fewof their scheduled games this season. This is not thefault of the coach—this I want to remind you. If ateam has a bad season the coach is frequently subjectedto criticism. If you think this way you are wrong.Being a member of the squad, I know the group of boyswas loyal and did their best to obey their coach. Butvictories just did not seem to come our way. At leastthe season was of value and we all enjoyed it. Let “bygones be by-gones and turn to the future. It lookslike the team next year will be a team to be proud of.I will try to give you a brief summary of the games thisyear:The Arrows opened the season with a game here withthe Springville team and were victorious, 23-18.
