This game gave the team the desired amount of confidence with which to continue the year. The girls played their best defensive game of the season against Waterloo and greatly increased their confidence as a result of beating their traditional rivals 16-3. The Waterloo team was held to one field basket the entire game. Defeat by a strong Penn Yan team in both games was something hard to swallow, but the girls took their defeat with cheerfulness. The encounter with Penn Yan on our court was a heartbreaker to lose. Myn- derse led during the entire game, but a basket in the last seconds gave a victory to the invaders. The lthaca game at lthaca was another Htough break g again Mynderse led, but a last quarter rally defeated them by three points. The players who will be greatly missed through graduation are Emily Andrews, Hope Stevenson, lone Gionnatti and Mildred Mitchell, all veterans of two or more years. Dolores Lynch, Margaret Lewis, Barbara Boswell, and Elizabeth Doran will be back to play again for Blue and White. Around these four stars will be built next year's team.

The team got off to a bad start, but after the first few games, they clicked to perfection and the prospects of winning the Finger Lakes League title became a form of encouragement to them. The team played its best basket- ball in league competition and in the Fayetteville game. At Fayetteville, when 8 points behind, they staged a rally and held the opponents scoreless while scoring 10 points to win the game. The climax of the season was reached when Mynderse defeated the strong Geneva team on our own court 20-18 in two overtime periods. Mynderse's hopes for the title were dashed later when Geneva scored a 25-21 victory at Geneva. Although defeated at Canandaigua the following week, Mynderse retained second place in the league and played Manchester, the runners-up in League B, in the preliminary to the Geneva-Victor game at Canandaigua and defeated them by a 16-15 score. The season closed with 11 victories and 10 defeats. Douglas Cousin, star forward and high scorer for the season, was elected honorary captain for the 1933-34 season.

The 1933 Myndersian, which represented the one hundredth anniversary of the founding of Mynderse Academy, was the first fo our year books to win First Honor Rating in the National Scholastic Press Contest, although each annual en- tered in the contests has won Second Honor Rating. We have chosen The Sea- sons as our theme for the 1934 Myndersian with which we are trying to reach a higher goal than other classes. ln as much as our activities fall into seasonal divisions, we offer this year a book that we think bids fair to be the most original of any edited at Mynderse. The staff for our book this year is headed by Helen Moore as editor-in-chief, with Luella Allen, Emily Andrews, Florence Finn, Florence Cooper, Teresa Mar- tino, Virginia Lay, Anita Palumbo and Hope Stevenson as assistants. Our busi- ness manager is George Sullivan assisted by Frederick Clark, Valerie Clark, Donald Knox, Donald Kuney, Ethel Bookman, Arlene Tavener, Paul Bracht, George Semmens, loseph Sinicropi, Philip Wycker, Genevieve Dornbrowski, Margaret Doran, Helene Millela, Stuart Miller, Helen McCarthy, and Warren Mills, typists are lane Nelson, lone Giannotti, and Sarah Coleman. The art editor is Robert Hamilton. Staff members were chosen for their ability in English, art, and business. The success of our Myndersian we owe to Miss G'Brien, publication adviser, under whose guidance we have worked with happiness and inspiration. Q0 Miss O'Brien and Stall Heads
