THE HANOVERLXN 25 GIRLS, BASKETBALL TEAM qThe girls' basket-ball team closed their last game of the season March 12, with a victory over Middleboro. They have had a very successful year, los- ing two games in the League. These games being lost to Duxbury and Marshfield. Coach Louise Hull should receive credit for the successful team she has displayed this year. She had three girls who had been on the first team last year, these being Elsie Thrasher, Ethel Henderson and Elizabeth Schnei- der. These girls have helped to build the first team of this year's basket- ball team. The defense this year has been very good. Many defeats have been stop- ped, by the work and quick playing on the defense 'side. The defense this year has been Elsie Thrasher, Marjor- ie Billings. and Bernice Gardner. The scorers for the team have been Ethel Henderson, Ruth Rubicus, and Elizabeth Schneider. They have all been very good at shooting, and have shown good passxvork which has help- ed win our games. The girls that are leaving the first team next year are Ethel Henderson, Elsie Thrasher, and Elizabeth Schnei- der. Their places will be taken by some of the faithful subs who have shown very good basket-ball playing this year, and who have played in some of the games. The line-up has been as follows: F-R.

24 THE HANOVERTAN BOY'S BASKETBALL The boyls basketball team, under the direction of Coach Thornton, has had a very successful season, considering the fact that there was only one letter man on this year's team. 'tBillU Young and Damon Stetson played well together as forwards. Young has to his credit 71 points and Damon Stetson 54 points. Their quick pass work and shooting Billl' kept the other teams fighting hard for their game. Toward the end of the 'fBill Young was handicapped with a sore knee and f'Hash', Studley, our coming star, took his place working well with Stetson. SCHSO11 '4Frannyl' McLeavy acted as captain during Youngls absence. He has sav- efl many a game by his clever guard- -ing. NVhenever there was a close score Franny was always ready un- der the opponentis basket to prevent the other team scoring. Everyone will miss his clever pass work and guard- ing. 'fBob Studley and Meredith Mc- Phee were right there in their defense work. Bob has scored 61 points while MacPhee has scored 12 points. The line up was as follows: W. Young, lf M. MacPhee, lg. D. Stetson, rf. R. Studley, rf. F. McLeavy, c. John Lovell, Kenneth Young, Mil- ton Dawes, were the subs.

If a Secretary writes a letter, it's too long, If h-e sen-ds a postal. it's too short, If he doesn't send a notice, he's lazy, If he attends a committee meeting, he is butting in, If he stays away, he's a shirker, If he duns the members for dues, he's in- sulting, If he fails to collect the dues, he's slipping, If he asks for service, he's incompetent If he does not, he's bull-headed, If he writ-es his reports, complete, they are too long, If he conrdenses them, they are incomplete, If he talks on a subject, he's trying to run things, If he remains qui-et, he has lost interest. Ashes to Ashes Dust to Dust If others won't do it, The Secretary must. ANONYMOUS

THE POR TRAI T It was only a portrait that hung on th-e wall, And poorly lighted in the shadowy hall. It was almost forgotten, 'most buried in the dusty There were cracks on the edges, and signs showed of must. When a light from the -door, thr-ew a gl-eam on the wall- The scarlet in the picture lighted up the entire hallg It cast a rosy shadow up and down the polished floor, But the hall did not glow oft-n, for a lock was on the door. It was the picture ofQa woman, and her hair was shiny jetg ' And it tumbled on her shoulders, minus hat, or pins, or netg And the woman's dress was scarlet-flam- ing, vivid, fiery red, That it made a striking contrast of the dress to that dark head. But the face-how lovely-noble--full of frankness-tender pride, And the rare light in the dark eyes that lashes almost hide, The full mouth is curved in sweetness- forming a contagious smile, She was altogether lovely-She fcrgotten? All this while? Only yesterday-a grinding-and the door was open-free- And the sunlight thru the doorway flooded such a crimson sea That it blinded himHHe staggered-cried out-t'God! O?h, Nell-forgive me! In her eyes was Heaven's pardon, from the mouth smiled sympathy. Living wor-ds seem-ed almost forming, Love than death its-elf more strong. All the torture-agony! Where are you, Nell? It has been so long. And he reached out to take her-calling her-he fell down-dead. No!wfaint! The portrait woman's heart broke, for the streaming scarlet glowed more red!
