Teacher—“We borrowed our nu¬ merals from the Arabs, our calendar from the Romans, and our banking from the Italians.

It was the dear old lady’s first ride in a taxi, and she watched with grow¬ ing alarm the driver continually put¬ ting his hand outside the car as a signal to the traffic following.

THE HUTTLESTONIAN 29 GIRLS’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION T he first undertaking of the G.A.A. this year was a party for the freshman girls. Each upper class girl invited a “freshie” and saw that she had a good time. This was the first “welcome party” that has ever been given the F.H.S. freshmen, and the G.A.A. feels justly proud of being the first to have taken this step. Next came initiation—one which will not soon be forgotten by the girls. After going through the general stunts, each girl was requested to do some individual performances. Mary O’Leary, one of the most active freshmen, exhibited fine swimming form about fifteen feet high from the floor. Another feature of the after¬ noon was a race across the gymnasium floor with a mouthful of Epsom Salts. A pleasant task, indeed!! The programme for the day ended with informal dancing. Interclass hockey games are now over and Class A again won the championship. This makes the third consecutive year that they have been champions. The members of the champion team were as follows: Adaleita Hathaway . Right Wing Elsie Perry . Right Inside Nellie Coombs . Center Forward Mildred Bryant, Captain . Left Inside Anna Burke . Left Wing Ruth Jason. Right Halfback Anna Fernandes .Center Halfback Delphena Brown .Left Halfback Mary Sylvia . Right Fullback Marjorie Dexter .Left Fullback Margaret Gifford . Goal Tender The fr eshman class has some fine material. Class B will have to play their best brand of hockey to win against this scrappy little team next fall. Basketball is again with us, and once more F.H.S. is represented by a girls’ basketball team. We have some fine material and with proper practice and coaching hope to become a match for any girls’ team around here, and to uphold the fine records which our boys have made for Fairhaven High School.
