Elgin was easy, Sharp was tough, but Rogers was too much. Take a good look--that is our Znd place trophie, we re- ceived at the district playoff. Here is another point ad- ded to Chilton's score. Can you glimpse the crowd? Can't you hear the crowd, Freddie made the goal. Our girls are on their toes to get the ball, but Mary Dee is in the air. The girls were still smil- ing after their defeat at Rog- ers. Good sportsmanship.
