Girls’ Basketball Early in the winter, the high school girls excited the admiration of their fellow-students, of the faculty, and of the townspeople, when they manifested determination, perseverance, and energy in overcoming all obstacles, in order to make possible a girls’ basketball team. On their own initiative, they arranged to present a movie for which they sold tickets. Under the direction of Mrs. Dodds, they cleared over ninety dollars, which enabled them to finance a team and remain in the Northern New York League. Although many underclassmen reported for practice in January, the first team was composed chiefly of girls who had played during the previous seasons. After only two weeks of hard practice, our team contended against Franklin Academy at Malone. The schedule included also games with Canton, Ogdens- burg, Potsdam, and Norwood. The following players received their block letters: Grace Hillis, Ruth Can- field, Mary Shinnock, Florence Overacker, Rosemary Caswell, Beulah Clark, Mary Washburn, Lillian Wright, and Manager Mary Callahan. Florence Overacker. I Page Twenty-eight “The race by vigour, not by vaunts, is won: '—Pope
