IS H Y A K Our girls awoke to their danger and from then on the ball never left our side of the field. Marion made a field goal, Bessie followed it with two more and with one free throw finished our score of 14. The way in which the High School forwards threw their baskets, even on a strange field, made ns feel sure that if the ball had been more in their reach their score would have been much larger. The team work of both teams was excellent, showing the hard work that their coaches. Miss Miller and Miss Frahm, have done with them. The High School guards were especially strong. Thanks to the steady watchfulness of our centers, there was little opportunity to judge the work of their forwards. We were very fortunate in having Miss Scholls of the High School as referee and surely owe her a vote of thanks. S8 8 8 On Friday, March 24th, the Seminary girls played a return practice game of basket ball with the T. H. S. girls in the High School gym- nasium. The lineup was the same as in the game played in the Seminary gym- nasium. with the exception of two new players on the High School team, Marguerite Cathout at center and Lola Sriars at guard. The points of the game were as follows: The first field basket for the Seminary was thrown by Bessie Eckert, as well as one free goal. The score was raised to five by a field throw by Marion Kellogg. Helen Hartman of the High School team threw two field baskets and Alita Stiber two free baskets, making the score 5 to 6 in favor of the High School. In the second half the points for the Seminary were the same as in the first half, one field basket apiece for the forwards and one free throw by Bessie. The High School ran up a score of seven points, making the final score 13 to 10 in favor of the High School. The teams played a fast game. The work of both was admirable, but the High School showed the effects of longer team work. Owing to the difference in baskets, our girls experienced the same disadvan- tage that the High School did here. After the game the High School girls entertained our team in the teachers’ parlor, and the afternoon closed with both teams in the best of spirits.
