The Spud Page 17 IIHIIIIIIIIIIIIMIftlllllllllMlllllltllllllllllltflt Qirls’ wJlthletics In the early part of the year the inter-class Basket Ball Tournament was held. Each class had a team in the contest and behind each a loyal band of supporters. The first evening the Juniors defeated the Seniors. The second game between the lower classes ended in a victory for the Freshmen. The final scrap put the Junior girls the Champions. As soon as the class games were over the girls started in real practice for the League games, the first one being played January 9. As this was the first year of a girls’ league in Western Nebraska there were more games scheduled than usual. Out of the ten games we won eight. The two we lost were undoubtedly caused by an absent member from the team. We closed the season tying Scottsbluff for the Championship. None of the girls who played on the team this year graduate in the spring, so we are looking forward to another successful season.

People who love in glass houses should pull down the blinds. Ignorance is bliss. The average freshman. There isnt often any excuse for an excuse. Never confide your secrets to a woman even tho you call her dove—she may turn out to be a carrier pigeon.
