l HOCKEY GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls' hockey team of George Washing- The Continental Girls' Basketball team fin- ton high school was handicapped this year by bad weather and lack of competition. Shortridge was the only high school in our vicinity having a team available. The varsity was selected from four intra- mural teams captained by Helen Greeley, Mar- tha Burns, Jane Fletemeyer, and Eleanor Wolf. Jane F1etemeyer's team won all of the intra- mural games, thus being champion for this sea- son. Miss Workman sponsored the team as us- ual. The team played one game, losing it to the Shortridge girls. A return game was scheduled, but snow kept the teams inside. ' lshed a fairly successful year by winnfrg two of foul games played, considering the loss of tour first team players by graduation. We won our first game with the Indiana State School for the Deaf by a score of 38-14. In a return game with the Deaf School we gained another victory with a score of 23-17. Because of superior height we lost to Short- ridge on their floor by 39-27. On a return home game a close fight resulted in a Shortridge vic- tory, 27-24. E261
