The annual Gopher Awards banquet was held last night at the Minneapolis
Athletic club and there wwere over 350 fans, family and players in attendance.
As usual the dinner was great and the program at times very amusing and
occasionally sad. The senior good-byes were very hard as there were seven this
year and each will be missed for their individual efforts and collectively as
a group.
