Hanging in the hallway at Whites High School in Wabash, Ind.,
and the basketball team pictures from the past 40 years.
A player in the center of the front row in each picture holds
a basketball identifying the year －"62-63", "63-64", "64-65", etc.
One day I spotted a freshman looking curiously at the photos.
Turning to me, he said, "Isn't it strange how the teams always lost by one point?"

在印第安纳州瓦巴什高级中学的走廊里挂着过去40年间的篮球队的照片。每张照片前排正中都有一个运动员，手里拿着一个篮球，上面标着年代- “62-63” “63-64”，“64-65”等。一天我看到一个新生好奇地看着照片。转过身问我说：“真奇怪，怎么这个队总是输一分呢？”
