GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Girls' Basketball team was organized November 7, 1924. Miss Myrtle Linn consented to coach and Mae Johnson was chosen captain. The High School has not had a Girls' Team until this year and the Girls were very enthusiastic. They practised two times a week and there was a suflicient number of girls from the lower classes who turned out for practise making it possible to have a scrimmage every time. The many hours of hard practise showed favorable results. DECEMBER 18th.- Cambridge played Braham here. At first things looked rather unfavorable but before long the view changed. Coming back in the second half with more fight, we rolled in basket after basket and the game ended 18 to 9 in our favor. JANUARY 19th.- Braham played Ogilvie there. The girls were handicapped on account of being compelled to play modified Boys' rules after having practised regular Girls' rules. The game ended 26 to 6 in Ogilvie s favor. JANUARY 23rd.- Ogilvie played a return game here and our girls managed to hold them to a 10 to 9 score. FEBRUARY 6th.- Braham played Cambridge there but due to absence of some of our players we lost, 21 to 9. FEBRUARY 20th.- St. Francis played Braham here. The girls play- ed a fine game and outplayed St. Francis more than the score would in- dicate. Braham won 14 to 11. . r vi xx- 1411 xiii init 2 l1ari01cbk4b16lAL1ibibiok0Lnv1aiKiriisi5s101011xiui :oi 1014

BOYS' BASKETBALL If's not the fact that you lost that counts, but how you lost and why Although this years basketball team won but few of their games, the fact that a practically new team was put onto the fioor must be taken into consideration. Only two of last years regulars, Gustafson and C. Skjod, were back for the team this year and as such the other three positions had to be filled by inexperienced men. The first part of the season was a disastrous one, but the boys improved steadily and were able to win their last game of the regular season, that from Taylors Falls by a score of 12 to 9. Other close games were played with Ogilvie, Mora. Cambridge, North Branch, and St. Francis. Four veterans will be back to form the nucleus of next years squad. They are Floyd and Orlo Patten, William Franden, and Wallace Staff. ATHLETICS No one is beat till he quits, No one is through till he stops, No matter how hard Failure hits, No matter how often he drops. A fellow's not down till he lies, In the dust and refuses to rise. Fate can slam him and bang him around. And batter his frame till he's sore, But she never can say that he's downed While he bobs up serenely for more. A fellow's not dead till he dies, Nor beat till no longer he tries. -Edgar Guest. 101 :iaizzixi::i:.:::.:-::.fvi1:-L-':1.:-1 zi :1 ri-ri :igi 1 1-viuixz. 1:1121-: cpu: -1 in-in P :u1uico: 3 iurievioiojoivicninjciioiaujozuvif 5011 Q21-1111111111:,ities--xoioxozoxf-1--0:4v1-:1o1u14-go:01-- jo:-n:1v:0:1-1-froze-101011
