Girlz' ifamkri Ball In the world there are stars of all kinds: stars in the heavens, stars at the theater, musical stars, football stars, and so on, ad infinitum. But the best of all stars is the lucky star. Such a star guides and animates girls' athletics in Enid High in the person of Miss Alice Hamilton. For four years she was a star player on the girls' basket ball team of South- western College-the four purple stripes on her sweater tell the story- and for the last two years she has shaped the destinies of girls' basket ball in E. H. S.-lucky destinies. But luck is a peculiar thing. It comes only through fair-dealing, hard work, untiring effort, cheerfulness, enthusiasm, faith in one's work, and in one's fellows, and through leadership. Because of all this, Miss Hamilton is the lucky star of girls' athletics in Enid High.

Girlz' Ezwkrt 3152111 Gram Drew, A. Fuhrmaster, Hamilton fcoachb, McDonald, Beck, Arhuckle, Bebbs, I. Fuhrmaster fcaptj, Hitchcock. The captain of the sextet was Irene Fuhrmaster. The team will lose a valu .l le guard when Irene graduates this Spring. In the first two games Katherine Hitchcock made every point and in the others the scoring' was evenly divided between Enid's two excellent forwards, Katherine and Ruth McDonald. A long step toward many of the victories was the remarkable team work of Ruth Belmbs and Zelda Beck at center. Alma Fuhrmaster proved to be one of the strongest guards at the Phillips' tour- nament. This was Alma's first year on the team. Two substitutes who will prove good immaterial for next year's team were Erma Arbuckle and Audine Drew.
