BOY ' KETB LL I VARSITY TEAM Qleft to rightj-Coach Hutchinson, Burns, Marshall, Walker, Blanchard, McLeod, Captain Pollakowski, Rucker, Campsall, Bryant, Petrak. Kresin, McCloud QManagerj SENIOR INTRAMURAL CHAMPIONS 58 ASKETBALL was the sport with which Edison Institute closed its most successful season. Edison Institute out- scored its opponents Q09 points to 105 with J. G. Rucker, Edison Institute for- ward, leading the scorers with 62 points. Practice sessions were held at the gym- nasium of William Ford School which was borrowed for practices each school night. Short periods for practice handi- capped early progress in the squad's de- velopment, but this obstacle was over- come by the team, and Edison Institute completed its schedule with the winning percentage of .777 by taking seven out of the nine games they played. Among the tC3.IIl,S opponents were Romulus, Sacred Heart. Wayne B team, and Ann Arbor IS team. A game was also played with the faculty, and resulted in the students' coming out on top by the close score of 17-16.

GIRL ' BA KETB LL The Cardinal basketball team led by Captain Irene Stead won the intramural championship and lost but one game in nine contests. The team's members appear in the picture below reading left to right: Sally Owens, Patricia Chubbuek, Captain Irene Stead, Jane Pres- ton, Joyce Soderquist, Kath- ryn Bryant, Marilyn Owens, Shirley Schmidt, and Suzanne Wessinger. Jane Preston and Joyce Soderquist were the lead- ing scorers of the team that won the title. ACH Thursday evening the Edison School gymnasium was used by the girls from the Edison Institute who had many enjoyable times play- ing basketball. Many girls attended so regularly that they were grouped into four separate teams. The girls elected four captains: Irene Stead, Dorothy Chubbuck, Barbara Shel- drick, and Betty Hutchinson. Each team selected the name of a bird for its team name. The Cardinals, Starlings, Orioles, and Bob O' Links were chosen for titles. The evenings were divided so that two games could be played. The season permitted each team to play a series of nine games. Good sportsmanship and team play were very apparent as the season progressed. The girls looked forward to each basketball night, and enjoyed the games very much. The season's high scorers were led by Dorothy Chubbuck and Mary Eleanor Ritenour who gathered a total of 99 points each. Dorothy Richardson a11d Jane Preston closely followed with 97 points apiece.
