GIRLS' BASKETBALL At the beginning of the basketball season, it looked pretty dark for us girls. We had no coach! Of course, we had to have a team. H. A. would be lost without it. And after some persuading, Mr. Heddericg agreed to pitch in and take on the responsibility. We all ap- preciated it and had a lot of fun during the fseason. The opening game was a Round Robin at Newport. Hartland played two quarters, win- ning 6-5 over Hermon, and 14-9 over Newport. Our season was quite successful, and we were able to play many more games than last year. All of our old team was back with one exception. At graduation the team will lose Gladys Deering, Camilla Chute, Ina Cook, and Helen Moore. I'm sure the remaining girls will work hard and get along Well without us when the time comes. The letter winners for 1943-44 are: Virginia Wheeler, Estelle Randlett, Achsah Farrell, Gladys Deering, Camilla Chute, Ina Cook, and Helen Moore. Of this group, Virginia and Ach- sah were chosen to play on the All-Star team at East Corinth.

GIRLS' PHYSICAL ED UCATION No school can be complete without some form of physical activities, for its boys and girls. Human :beings are so constructed that they are healthier and happier using their bodies as well as their minds. Physical education is not, however, simply muscular activity. In the gymnasium, students are given experience in .self-direction, self control, leadership, fellowship, co-operation, unselfishness and sportsmanship. All these traits lead to a finer democracy. This year we have prepared a vscheldule so that every girl in school will have at least two hours of physical education a week. Formerly, we have had Very little besides basketball. One g'roup of girls is under the direction of Mr. Heddericg, and another under the direction of Miss Boutilier, while the third group is entire- nly carried on by junior and senior -student leaders with Miss Boutilier as aidvisor. During the year our groups have had work in calisthenics, individual stunts, couple stunts, group stunts, relay races, pyramids, and military marching. We have learned: to play a variety of new games: volley ball, ten- nequoit, mewcomb, and nine court basketball. -Virginia Wheeler '45 BASEBALL If the Hartland Academy athletic field ever dries up, the prospects. for a successful base- ball season appear bright this year. There are only three veterans: Floyd Austin, Raymond Ames, and Vernard Vanaldestine. However, the number of promising candidates makes us fairly confident of a good season. Candi- dates are: Catchens: Floyd Austin, Paul Hughes. Pitcher-sz Raymond Ames, Arthur Chad- Iborne, Harlow Powers, Vernard Vanadestine. Infield: Wendell Bufbar, Harry Ballard, Har- land Emery, Charles Siherburne, Earl Mc- Lean, Lowell Knowles, Allen Thorne, Marvin Lovely, Fred Towle, Arthur Chapman, James Mills, Richard Mower, George Baker, and Richard Lucas. . Outfield: Ivar Pearson, Raleigh Stone, Les- lie Duran, Blaine Mower, Donald Nichols, Robert Page, LeRoy Rollins, Ashley Parker, and Stanley Dyer. We hope to find transportation facilities to play our Central League games with Hermon, Corinna, East Corinth, and Newport. Coach Heddericg says that the battery set- ups are progressing so satisfactorily, that he will soon be able to take them south to Pal- myra for training. --Richard Lucas, '45 FRESHMEN BOYS' BASKETBALL The Freshmen boys' basketball team has :had a full season.
