THE CHERADO-1924 the visitors showed excellent school spirit. The Cheraw girls all agree that they would like to play another such team. One of the nicest things connected with the girls' team last sea- son was that white coat sweaters were presented to the entire squad of ten players. Mrs. Pierce worked very hard to get these sweaters for the girls, and they are all very thankful to her. The business men of Cheraw are also to be remembered for their support. The team consisted of: Forwards, Phyllis Cole and Flossie Luginbillg Centers, Venus Basinger and Verda Rileyg Guards, Thelma Riley and Lois Switser. Subs, Helen Lewis, Iva Wade, Margaret Ree- der and Roma Luginbill. The year of 1924-1925 will not see many of these girls back'in their old places as Verda Riley, Lois Switser, Thelma Riley and Flossie Luginbill and Margaret Reeder and Iva Wade are among the gradu- ating class this year. So if new girls wish to try out for the team next year there is nothing to keep some of them, at least, from making the team. L. S.

THE CHERADO-1924 Girls' Basketball It has been said that the Cheraw girls can outplay any team in the Valley, and it does look that way from their record of last season. It was by only a very narrow margin that they lost the championship of their division. The Cheraw girls did more fast playing and had better teamwork and organization than they have ever had. The honor falls to our coach, Mrs. Pierce, who did all in her power to make the team a suc- cess, and to Mr. Dolph, who worked with the girls unceasinglyg these faithful champions worked early and late in the interests of the bas- ketball girls, and they were partly repaid for their devotion in the way the games turned out, even if the team did not win first place. After the season was over the Hasbeen girls were scheduled to play a game with the Hopefuls. It is rather pitiful the way the Hope- fuls beat the Hasbeens. It shows that there are good players left, and more coming on. The first team played a post-season game with the state champion team of New Mexico. These girls came to the Arkan- sas Valley to play the three leading teams of the valley-Cheraw. Fowler and Las Animas. Our girls won easily. Although beaten.
