ZZ THE QUILL The girls' basketball season opened with a 30-12 victory over the Alumni. The Alumni players were Margaret Donovan, Katherine Grimes, Agnes Henderson, Chris- tine Donovan, Bernice Hewitt, Blanche Chase, and Frances Grimes. The Cony game on the home floor was the most exciting game of the season. The last minute of the game gave us our last basket, tying the score. The Gardiner girls spruced up in the sec- ond Hallowell game and gave their rivals more of a iight than in the preceding games. The team of '35-'36 has been practically a brand new set of basketeers. We lost nearly every game as far as the score was concerned but not one because of poor sportsmanship. Our coach, Miss Doris Newman, is a U. of M. graduate.
