Five Parowan Rams Hang Up Suits Following State Play When the final buzzer sounded In the Parowan-North Summit game at the State Cass B tournament tourna-ment on Saturday, March 17 it also sounded the end of the high school basketball careers of five of the members of the Parowan squad. And the boys who will not be back again next year ended end-ed their high school careers in a very fitting manner. I Don Stubbs, ConneU Mitchell. Kent Whitney, Alan Daily and iCarlyle Rollins were the boys who are through with basketball at the local high school. Stubbs who sparkplugged the Parowan team to the regional championship champion-ship and fourth p.' ace in the Class B ranks, has played for the Rams four years. Connell Mitchell, Mitch-ell, a regular for the past two years and Kent Whitney, regular this year and semi-regular last, along with Stubbs formed the j backbone of the team and will lleave big gaps to f'.'l next year. I Dally and Rollins filled In when I needed and always did fine Jobs In carrying the team to victory. But back from this year's winning win-ning squad will be John Sim-kins, Sim-kins, Stuart Adams, Reed Thornton, Thorn-ton, Jim Burt, Roger Skougard and Don Halterman. Simkins and Adams were the other two-fifths of the Ram starting five and Thornton was a semi-regular. These three, with Burt. Skougard and Halterman. should form the nucleus of another powerful team for Parowan High next year, an 'outfit that should be among the leaders when the curtain rolls down on the basketbaU season I in 1957.
