After the kiln was cleaned out the second time, it was restoked with track. Indi- cations pointed toward a heavy yield of the lime of victory. Both our kiln foremen, “Stew” and “Lew,” were optimistic about the 1931 season, as a good crowd of boys showed up the opening night for workouts. NATIONAL ATHLETIC HONOR SOCIETY

GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Girls’ basketball was also dumped into the lime kiln in the Brush High Factory along with boys’ basketball. The yield of victory was exceptionally high this year. At the beginning of the campaign the girls started to work and train under their chief boss, Frank Page. Myrtle Bone and Isa Blakeman were chosen from the chemists in the factory for the girls’ sponsors. The first month was spent in hard practice and strict training. Then came the first game of the season with Weldona at Weldona. In this game every girl was given a chance to show her playing ability. Brush beat Weldona 41-9 making a flying start toward the Northern Championship. Several other practice games were played with Wiggins, Roosevelt, and Atwood. The girls then played their first home game with Ault, a leading contender from the North. The squad beat Ault 40-10. Then came the game which decided whether Brush would again be runners-up for State. Brush won from Berthoud in a fast game 43-29, making our girls Northern Colo- rado champions. Though our girls made a hard fight for State they were defeated by Las Animas 19-27, but every member in the B. H. S. Factory knows they made a record of which to lx proud. I Pan ' Twenty-six ]
