the Svectroscone SUMMARY OF THE SEASON That M. H. S. has just completed a most successful season in Basket Ball is evidenced by the fact that we have scored 1023 points to our opponents 505 in the twenty-six scheduled games played before the sectional. This is a record to be truly proud of as we have played such teams as Anderson, Bloomington, Frank- lin, Lebanon, Tech and Vincennes. Nov. Nov. 20 Nov. 24 Nov. 26 Dec. 3 Dec. 4, Dec.

S. 44 Nov. 6, Broad Ripple 8 M. H. S. 76 We went to Greencastle to wipe out remembrance of that 20 to I6 defeat last year. In a rough and tumble game we won 20 to 15. The next week we dropped into Bloomington for a set-to and here met our first Waterloo, coming home vi ith the short end of a 34 to 20 count. We romped on Mooresville to-nite to the tune of 44 to 8. Smithville brought her diminuative Five to Martinsville to show us why Bloomington had to iight so hard to win the sectional. Say those boys know Basket Ball. lVe fought hard and were able to turn in a 26 to 22 victory. VVe resumed practice after the Smithville affair by trimming the Brownsburg bunch 60 to 15. Vincennes is defeated in a clean well played game 29 to 22. Lebanon arrived in Martinsville much peeved over the result of their game at Bloomington last night. They were determined to take their spite out on us but we sent them home with a dozen of the forty-eight points scored. Went to Anderson last night, lost by the inconcievable score of 60 to 22. VVait till you come to Martinsville. Say this thing has got to stop. Franklin added to our misery by coming over and romping on us to the do-re-mi of IQ to II. The M. H. S. Hve hands Martinsville a Christmas present. Normal of Terre Haute bumped off 61 to IO. Remember that Bloomington 34, Martinsville 20 mentioned above, Well read this, M. H. S. 33, Bloomington 14. Pity the poor guys who have to drive back to Bloomington thru the rain to-nite. Lebanon takes the joy out of life. Vtfe lost 35 to 16 and didn't make a goal the first half. Only time this year we have played twenty min- utes without scoring more than two points. Indianapolis Star hasn't much to say about Shortridge being swamp- ed on their own Hoor under a 42 to IQ score. Brownsburg puts up a good iight but are downed 38-26. Advance came down and took a 48 to I3 trimming. Indianapolis papers loud in their praise of Manual who downed Martinsville last night at thef'Y', 36 to 35. Good work, Ross, but you came almost getting beat. Only place where Martinsville has complain- ed of the treatment received this year. Tech brings three car loads of rooters and all their Basket Ball

H W 11-liueteen 1bunore'o Eweutig time GIRLS' BASKET BALL TEAM Front Row: Rutledge, Hubbard, Bain, Shireman. Rear Row: Kinnenian, Gibbs, Petro, Tilford. Bennett. Basketball as a sport for girls is rap'dly uaining favor among the students of Martinsville High. However the girls are not allowel as nuch time for practice the boys nor do they have a regularly paid coach. The girls got a poor start this year having the use of the gym only two days a week and then only at noon Neither did they have a coachg it was a very dis-organized team which journeyed to Monrowie to enter the camp of the strong Monrovia team. Therefore it was not much of a surprise when the girls come back with an over- whelming defeat hovering over them. Howex er after this game our friend When G. inter- vened in behalf of the girls and volunteered his services as coach. Under his tutoring tho team improved rapidly and in the next game. the one with Center Grove, the girls turned in a 12 to 4 victory. The results of VVhen's strategy were again shown when the girls held Mon- rovia to a one point victory in a hard fought game. At that Martinsville scored more field goals than Monrovia but the victors won their game on fouls. The Juniors walked off with the class tourney winning from the Sophs in the final game 17 to 5. Here's to next year girls. Let's turn out a Wonder Five. Summary of the Season Continued players but cannot take home the hzleon. Good gzune though, 'lin-ch, :ind some yelling. lieb. 4, M. ll.
