L. GIRLS' BASKETBALL In the 153243-3-1 basketball season, Canton High produced its iirst champion girls' basket- ball team in six years, by defeating O. I . A. in the last game of the season, thus winning: glory for itself and its school. Perhaps the two most outstanding games of the season were those with Ogdensburg Free Academy. C. H. S, won both, the first by a score of 26-19, and the second by a score of 15-lil, The team that brought credit to C. H. S. consisted of Marla Snyder and Mary Howard, forwards: Martha Clark, center, Dorothy Crary and Frances Howard, guards. Harriet Clark, Leona Johnson, Helen Tupp-er, and Jessie Gillett were the ablest substitutes. The success- ful team had Aldine Stevens for its manager. Although four of the first tive players are to be graduated, next year's team must uphold the reputation already won. TRACK, WRESTLING, INTRAMURAL After Easter vacation, most of last year's cinder-path team reported for work-outs. The relay team had to be rebuilt, but otherwise, Canton High was as strong as she was last year. In addition to his more experienced men, Coach Oliver had several new runner: to pick from. The Freshmen seemed to show an added interest and from this year's results, Coach Oliv-er found that he had some excellent material to replace the men who are to be Lrraduatcd. Wrestling and Intramural basketball were again promoted by the Athletic Association and again proved successful. In wrestling, two men, Ha1'ry Wheeler and Glenn Thomas, placed second in their class at the St. Law- rence Wrestlingf Tournament. In Intramural, Southern California, Navy, Northwestern, and Clarkson finished the season in the order named. Four other teams failed to place but every fellow in school had a chance to play, if he wanted to.
