To save an extra trip, Kingfield came out and played a double header. It was a very wet day for a game but we played anyway, losing both of them. Because of the transportation prob- lems, our schedule is smaller this year. In baseball as in all other activities we have to make sacrifices and any sacrifice which is necessary to help the war effort will be done willingly.

20 THE PHILLIPIAN GIRLS' BASKETBALL Front row, left to right: M. Staples, M. Voter, Captain M. VVilbur, O. Seeley, I. Wilbur Hack ruw: N. Iidwards, P. Weston, M. Dunham, A. Wilbur GIRLS' BASKETBALL The lineup for the girls' basketball this year was as follows: llurris Tootliakei' Dot - C.F. Maxine Staples Macky - L.If. Myr Lyn NVilbur Kid - R.F. Myrtle Voter Tinli - L.U. Ruth Gilt- Garbo - R.G. Olin- Seeley Twitter 7 CII. Substitutes: Pauline Weston A' Polly Nathalie lidwards Nat Iris Wilbur Touts Atliilie Wilbur Pee Wee Marie Dunham Marilyn Wing Ruby liicltford Dimples Mayo Larry Coach Mitchell called the squad together for the first practice early in December. For several weeks it seemed doubtful whether we would be able to play many games or not. The day before the Kingheld trip the ban was placed on all pleasure driving. We were not quite ready to ride bicycles to King- Held, but we did keep the telephone busy un- til we finally persuaded Mr. Keay J to drive through lhillips and take six of us to King- field. With no coach and no substitutes we played one of the best games of the season. The score was tied several times during the game and at no time was either team more than four points in the lead. When the final whistle blew the score was all tied up. Two weeks later the Kingfield girls vis- iied Phillips. VVe felt that with our coach and substitutes we would have little trouble. But the teams started in right where they left off in Kingfield. At the end of the quarter Kingheld led by one basket, but we evened the score at the start of the second quarter. And from that time on it was close to the end of the game. When the final whistle blew it was 22-22.
