Girls ' Interclass Basket Ball Team F OR the development of the girl’s basket-ball material an Interclass Basket¬ ball League was organized in November, 1921. Through the efforts of this league the fundamentals of the game thus assured new material for our future teams.

Upon this cup will be engraved the name of the class winning the league championship. The following teams participated : Seniors Ruth Dillard (R. F.) Camilla Moody (Center) Kathryn Hooper (L. F.)

G. —Louise Peyton Substitute —Virginia Williams I N spite of the difficulty of not having a gymnasium in which to practice and the finances with which to hack our team, the girl ' s varsity team of 1921-22 started out with a determination to win. At each game they were admired by the audience for their team work and lighting spirit. If the game was lost it did not dampen their spirit, hut a better one was in store for the next. Although they were always overcome by other teams in weight, they were the equal in skill and pep. I he team of 1921-22 is leaving two of their players to star on the 1923 team. 80
