100 THE CAERULEAN Eaakrthall 1923-1929 In actual games won. the basketball season may hardly be termed as successful. but the best teams are not always judged on a percentage basis. The team this year was one worthy of representing the School. and showed the fighting qualities for which Chestnut Hill teams are noted. It was the unfortunate loss, of individual players before important games on the schedule that measurably weaken the strength of the team. and lessened the chances of victory. These handi- caps. together with a lack of material as the season progressed. prevented the team from achieving all the success due it. ln comparison with the excellent calibre of the other teams in the league. Chestnut Hill loses none of its prestige by its final standing. The call for candidates was issued the second week in December. and a large and promising squad responded. The fact that two games were scheduled before the Christmas holi- days necessitated cutting the squad to the minimum that the successful candidates might receive the full beneht of the drill on fundamentals. Those who survived the cuts were Captain Douglas. Syle. Meier. Biesel, Valentine. Landreth. Hampson. and Wallace: upon these rested the hopes of the Academy for the season. It was unfortunate that lVlejer failed to return to School after the holidays. as it forced Coach Shuttleworth to build an entirely new team that would play as a unit. The loss of Douglas to the team after the Episcopal game made necessary the building of another team. and the loss of Hamp- son in the final games had the same results. The schedule follows: December 13 -LaSalle College. at home--2l-lo. December 13 -Springfield High. at l10ll1PY35-lii. Im January ll-Friends' Central. at home-34-l5. January l6 Lawrenceville. away-18-25. January l9 George School. away-30-l3. January 25-lVlontgomery, away-37-24. January 29iPeirce School. at home-25-37.

High lights of the season came in the Lawrencex ille game. the Germantown Friends' game. and in the game with Penn Charter. At Lawrenceville. after three closely contested periods. a spirited rally in the closing minutes, featuring several phe- nomenal baskets. gave the home team the edge at the hnal gun. The team. functioning at its best in the Cermanto Friends' game. brought victory out of defeat in the ei moments of the fourth quarter by a drive that netted enough points to ward ofl' Germantown Friends' final rally. Following the defeat by Episcopal. the post-climax 4 inn with the Penn Charter game. The loss of this game ring
