The game began with Reitz. the jump center, getting the tap off. Meyer. the side center, was right in her place for the ball, down to Beek, the forward. and then to Hobson. who rolled the ball into the basket. This happened again and again, their passwork working very effectively. At the end of the first half, the score was 10-0. Peters replaced Beek in the second half, as she had done in each game, and worked equally as well, feeding the ball to Hobby, the captain. who piled up the score, 27-2. The guards, Appel and Nusbaum, did their share by keeping the ball away from their end of the field. Reitz did not miss the tap-off a single time and Meyer was always ready for it. Each girl received a medal from the Playground Athletic League and a monogram from the Ath- letic Association of the school. Miss Johnson was the coach of the team. The score was as follows: Hobson, captain, f., field goals. 10: Beek, f.. Held goals, 3: Peters. f., foul goals, lg Reitz, c.: Meyer, s.c.: Appel, g.: Nusbaum, g.Z Rever, g.
