Fourth Ordnance Company Basketball Team Photo and caption provided by Gordon Mills
A picture of the WSPG basketball team
of 1954/55. It was composed of the 4th Ordnance Company team, because we had won the
post championship, and three members of other teams. For some reason I
can't remember, those guys are not in the picture. The WSPG team played
at Beaumont, Biggs, Holloman and one game as preliminary at the college
in Las Cruces. Unfortunately we got our clocks pretty well cleaned by
those guys! We were used to playing in a Quonset hut and when we hit the
full sized gyms-we were bedazzled!
Here are the names of the guys in the picture:
Top row: Bill Bauer, Roald Quam, Tom Lighthiser, Don Wendling
Middle row: Bob Williams, Bob Arthur, Howie Shevrin, Bill Hamilton
Bottom row: Ray Novak, Ray Smith, Gordy Mills, Whitey Hendrickson
