'Y - iv-'-fv -..,--- af., w- --. H- -vi ,- ,,. GIRL'S BASKET BALL Girls Basket Ball was organized three years ago under the supervision of lllr. and M rs. K. M. Snapp, and due to their faithfulness and encour- agement, and the girls' loyalty and enthusiasm, a team was organized which in a short time became the pride of the school and town. The girls. however, were not so fortunate as the boys seemed to be. Their first team was made up almost entirely of Senior girls and at their graduation the school was again without a girls' basket ball team. Vlihen the season came last winter. for some unknown reason the girls seemed to have lost their interest and although they made two or three public appearances they surely made no startling conquests. This year the prospects for a team look a trifle more encouraging but this time they were handi- capped by not having a coach. A first team was not chosen as the girls showed equal skill in one way or another and no star players were developed. No out of town teams were challenged but the girls picked two teams among their own number and furnish-ed some lively entertainment for the on-lookers on two or three occasions. Next year the girls expect to put Bristol on the map again and keep up the reputation of the IQI3 Basket Ball team. C-lRL'S BASKET BALL TEAM ' GENERAL JOKES Arnold C. in Lat.
