Christofferson GIRLS BASKETBALL It was left to the girls to place the Purple and Gold at the top of the mast and the showing they made this year certainly indicates that basket- ball laurels belong to them. Miss Cushman is entitled to much credit for her efficient coaching. Sig Moe, all-district center of last year’s cham- pionship team is also to be credited for his assistance in developing a first class girls’ basketball team. Only three outside games were played this GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM year due to the inability to secure more with surrounding- schools. It is hoped that next year a full schedule will be arranged as there are some very promising candidates for the team. The team, was made up of two seniors, three sophomores and two freshmen. There were several other girls out who did very good work and will be able to replace those who ■graduate. Following are the girls who made the regular team: Marion Heise—f. Myrtle Christofferson—g. Geneva Pierson—f. Ruth Green—sub. Lilian McClellan—c. Alma Rhue—sub. Louise Works—g. Fern Cushman—coach.

THE CENTENNIAL Many of the High Schools as well as citizens of the town were discour- aged hy the showing of this years team, but Coach White and Superintend- ent Moe declaftd all through the season and say yet that there is some very good material in Sandy High. ’Six letter men will be in their old position next fall and Big Sandy hopes to enjoy a very successful season. Coach White dfeserves much credit for managing the team in the way he did. -------o------- BASKETBALL Basketball was almost a repetiton of football, our team losing all game played except one. A good line of material reported to Coach Cameron at the beginning of the season, but for some reason the boys were unable to bit the stride furnished by last year's team. This is still a mytery to everyone as the team displayed plenty of ability on the floor. The same condition prevailed however, that we had in football, an entirely new team except for Hansen, sub center of last year. The team displayed; the same old fighting BASKETBALL TEAM spirit that is always dominant in Sandy’s teams but inexperience rendered them unable to cope with the fast quints from Havre and Harlem. Two regulars will graduate this year leaving three letter-men for the team next year. A decidedly better showing from the team will be expected next year. The players who deserve comment on their consistant playing are Han- sen, Cline, Cole ad Hetland. Ten games were played in ail by the team this year the season opening here with a game between the Town Team and the high School. B. S. H. S. was not represented at the district tournament, which was held ai Great Falls this year. This was due to the fact that our athletic funds were too low to warrant sending a team which could not hope to place among the first six, after the showing they had made during the sea- son. The results were as follows: Dec. 16—Town team 20 Dec. 23—Alumni 49 B. S. H. S. 16 B. S. H. S. 5

None of the boys who won points in the District Meet were left to binl(i around and it was necessary for Coach White to begin at the bottom. The first test came when the Interclass Meet was held. This resulted in a victory for the Juniors with 61 points to their credit while the Seniors ammased 54. The Sophomores came third with 19 and the Junior High fourth with 8, while the Freshmen failed to place. The second test came when the Fort Bmton aggregation was defeated 71 to 55 on April 29th.

Moe 9, R. Moe 3, Cline, Ensley and Homan one each. The District Track Meet was held at Havre May 8th and altho tire local boys without Hansen did not secure more than five points did well as they were always within scoring distance and with another year should make a strong bid for district honors. Next year the meet will again be held in Big Sandy and it is hoped that it will be equally successful to the
