Thanks much to George Howard for the great picture along with most of the names of the intramural players!No uniforms for intramural basketball, so we had to have shirts versus skins.
Identifiable players from left to right:
Jim Krieger, Doug Deeter, Ron Hinrichs, Dave Beilby, George Howard and Steve Burns.

I thought it was appropriate to post this on George's birthday. Happy Birthday George!

The following article appeared in the Sept. 18, 1970 edition of the LSE Clarion, which says a lot about Ted:

Dresselhous, Fisher, Fox, Graf Compete for Scholarship

Four seniors have been named semi-finalists in the 1970-71 National Merit Scholarship program.  The are Julie Dresselhaus, Adrienne Fisher, John Fox and Burket (Ted) Graf.  These students are among the top one percent of the 1971 graduating class.  They are among 14,750 semi-finalist competing for 3,000 Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1971.

These semi-finalists now have to take the Scholastic Aptitude Test on November 7 and score above 600 on both the math and verbal sections in order to be a finalist.

Finalists are then considered for 1,000 National Merit $1,000 Scholarships and for the four year merit scholarships offered by some 500 sources.  Winners of these may receive up to $1,500 each year during four years of college.

Winners will be announced next spring.

Vicki's passing is such a loss for the class of '71. Her bright smile and joyous attitude will be in our heats and minds forever.
