But I guess we couldn't help it. VVest Side played fine ball while we were off form. B. G. at the County Tournament We won our first game at the County Tournament in great style from Romney and lost to W'est Point in a great game. At the Sectional We lost to Dayton in the best game of the tournament. XVe had tough breaks while Dayton had lucky breaks. GIRLS' BASKETBALL TEAM 5? The girls had a basketball team this year to be proud of. They lost only one game and that was to Brookston. They will have a wonderful team next year, losing only Stonewall Bush and H. Doyle. L. Rohrabaugh and Skinny Statton made most of the points, while Smithy and Bushy showed their guarding ability. Ruby Souders was another guard of no mean ability. Lucille Foster was a 'center of great strength. VVe also had good subs that played well when given the chance. Mr. C. H. VVilson coached the team. B. G.
