Elaine went through some old papers yesterday and among them was this program from a Central City vs Seward HS basketball game back in the spring of '46. The listing of the Seward players is most interesting. They had a great team that year with Wendell Rivers and Merle Reiling as Seniors. Juniors, Dick Hagemoser, Don Bickle and Kenneth Schulz and a supporting "cast" of Gilbert Hulbert, George Rada, Gene Sloup, Darrel Karr, Dick Tempel, Don Strunc, Darrel Graff, Cliff Walker, Phil Hutson and Richard Buls. The program has a listing of Seward businesses as well. I listed it on eBay this afternoon with a starting bid of $1.00. Few of the players are still around. It may be of interest to some of their Grandchildren or others. Elaine was a Jr. in Seward HS at the time and a member of the Pep Club. At that time only a select number were "voted in" as members. It was before she and I had met but I followed the team quite closely. I was playing town-team basketball with Garland at the time and doing some refereeing. This is the first item I have listed on eBay since early last spring. It is usually a wintertime activity for me and with fall officially here, it seemed like a good time to start. The item can be viewed on eBay by entering "Central City vs Seward" or by the number 290983671493 in the search box.
